DRAGONBALL Evolution (2009)




"Master your destiny."


The story begins with Goku, who seeks out upon his adoptive grandfather Grandpa Gohan’s dying request to find the great Master Roshi and gather all seven Dragon Balls.
Of which he has one, in order to prevent the evil Lord Piccolo from succeeding in his desire to use the Dragon Balls to take over the world.
And Goku’s quest is to obtain the mystical Dragon Balls before Piccolo does.

Fact : Based on source material from Akira Toriyama’s comic, and also known as “Dragonball Z”, this movie is produced by Stephen Chow, a martial arts powerhouse on the Hong Kong cinema circuit who also produced “Kung Fu Hustle” (2005), “Shaolin Soccer” (2004), & “CJ7″ (2008).
