DBZ Movie 5: The Best of Strongest versus Strongest

Story
To avenge his dead brother, Coola comes to Earth to kill the Super Saiyajin. With his Tokusentai, Coola defeats Goku, Gohan, Kuririn, and Piccolo. But when fearing the death of all life on Earth, Goku transforms, and even Coola's final form won't be enough to win.
Thoughts
Though its storyline gets a bit boring at times, this movie takes a different approach to the Furiza saga, showing Furiza's brother and the anger he has for Furiza's death (which is strange since Furiza cared for no one but himself). Coola's final form is also really cool.

Story
With the New Planet Namek being eaten by the Giant Ghetti Star, the Z Senshi fly to the planet in a Capsule Corp. spaceship. Seeing that the entire Namekseijin race has been enslaved by large robots, Goku, Gohan, Piccolo, Kuririn, Yajirobe, Roshi, and Oolong try to help, only to learn that the person behind this occurrence is Coola. Now a metallic robot, Metal Coola is taking revenge on the people who lived on the planet where Furiza was killed. With Goku there, Metal Coola has another chance to avenge his dead brother. With Vegeta's help, Coola is destroyed. But from the Ghetti Star hundreds of Metal Coola's suddenly begin to arrive. 
Thoughts
With animation ona par with that of the Furiza Saga, I was surprised by how well drawn Metal Coola's appearence and the Super Saiyajin transformations were. They look great to say the least. The fight scenes are exciting but could have been longer. The story itself bogs down at parts, but is still worth seeing.

DBZ Movie 7: Utmost Limits of Battle!! The Three Super Saiyajin
Original Release Date: July 11, 1992
Rating: 6 1/2 of 7
U.S. Release Date: February 4, 2003

Story
Creating three new androids in the spirit of Dr. Gero's hatred for Goku, Dr. Gero's computer sends the androids out to complete Gero's plan on killing Goku. The first two to go out are 14 and 15, who attack Goku while he is shopping with Chichi and Gohan. Not wanting to destroy the city they're in, Goku and Trunks leave for an uninhabited Arctic area. The fight seems even until Android 13 shows up - at least until Vegeta and Piccolo arrive. Just when the fight seems won, 13 shows off his "Super" form, changing the battle's outcome yet again.
Thoughts
This is one of my favorites. The animation is great, the music is perfect, and the story (though not as original as others) is still cool. It's also a movie that wears well with repeated viewing.

This movie is now available in the U.S. from Amazon.com.  Click on the image (right) to buy it:

DBZ Movie 8: Burn Your Spirits to the Max!! Close Battle, Violent Battle, Super Bloody Battle
Original Release Date: March 6, 1993
Rating: 5 of 7

Story
Paragus comes to Earth seeking Vegeta. He wants Vegeta to return with him to what Paragus claims to be Planet New Vegeta. However, Paragus and the planet aren't what they seem, and Paragus' son, Burori, is the legendary Super Saiyajin, born with a power level of 10,000. Since Goku was the only person who ever made Burori cry (which occurred when they were infants). Burori loses control and tries to kill everyone. After an amazing battle, everyone seems beaten, but Goku isn't as weak as Burori thought.
Thoughts
Though this movie has its dull stretches - partially due to the length - the animation is good and the music is great. It also explains more about the Super Saiyajin and the Saiyajin race.
