Might as well be a fanfic.

I'm both a Dragon Ball fan and a fanfic writer (though I've never written a Dragon Ball fanfic). And while I do occasionally enjoy a high school AU story if it's well written, this movie was just unacceptable.

Abd a high school AU is exactly what Evolution is. Think about it: everyone is OOC, the main character is now a high school student who hardly resembles the original character, the fight scenes suck (like how they're boring in said fanfics), and the plot is nonsensical. See the resemblance?

Honestly, there's not much to watch here. It's not even fun to make fun of because it doesn't even try to stick to the source material. Besides the names of the characters and the quest for the dragon balls, there's nothing here that even resembles the source material. And since when did ki attacks become airbending?

All in all, I'd avoid this movie if I were you. There's nothing remotely entertaining or interesting about it, and it's a shame to the source material.

2/10, if only because it isn't the worse movie I've ever seen. It's just boring, uninteresting, and completely forgettable.
