Dragon Ball Super: Broly

Director
Akira Toriyama
Certificate
PG
Running Time
100 mins

This is the 20th film in the Japanese anime fantasy martial arts Dragon Ball series, so is probably not the best starting point for newcomers. If you’re already a convert, here’s the official synopsis: “This is the story of a new Saiyan. Earth is peaceful following the Tournament of Power. Realising that the universes still hold many more strong people yet to see, Goku spends all his days training to reach even greater heights. Then one day, Goku and Vegeta are faced by a Saiyan called ‘Broly’ who they’ve never seen before. The Saiyans were supposed to have been almost completely wiped out in the destruction of Planet Vegeta, so what’s this one doing on Earth? This encounter between the three Saiyans who have followed completely different destinies turns into a stupendous battle, with even Frieza (back from Hell) getting caught up in the mix.”
