If you want to read lengthy, drawn-out reviews of the movies in theaters now (or soon to be) then this isn't the blog you should be reading. Most of the posts from The Other Critic are short, sweet and to the point; that's how we roll here.

We also don't just focus on current movies. Let's face it, there are plenty of good movies that have been made, and sometimes viewers have a tendency to forget that there is more to life than movies in the theaters.

With all that said, please enjoy the short and concise, and sometimes opinionated reviews. If you don't like them, that's okay—we won't hold it against you.

Dragonball Evolution

Ever have one of those days where you think you've seen all there is to see (movie wise, that is) and so you start scraping the bottom of the barrel for something to entertain your brain? Yeah, you know what I am talking about.

Dragonball Evolution is one of "those movies". Man, I wish I could scrub it from my brain—it was truly a great example of one of the movies that should have stayed as a cartoon. I am not going to apologize to all of the 10 and 11 year olds (and the small handful of grown men living in their mom's basement) who idolize the character Goku—this whole movie reaked of truly bad acting.

The only saving grace was that the movie only lasted a mere 85 minutes. Even the fact that Chow Yun Fat was in it was not enough to make this movie palatable.

Sorry, kids. I wouldn't watch this one again if you paid me.
