By J. Snook VINE™ VOICE
Format:Blu-ray
With another season of Dragon Ball Z comes the next set of movies. As per usual, these movies have next to nothing to do with the main plot of the television series, but they do provide some extra DBZ action for the die-hards to sink their teeth into. This helping of DBZ movies contains another 2 movies.

Movie 7 - 'Super Android 13'
Doctor Gero, the creator of the androids has been defeated, but unbeknownst to the Z fighters, he has kept a secret lab in which Android 13 is being created by a computer. Naturally this new menace is released and starts tearing up the city. So as usual, the Z-fighters step in to kick some butt and save the planet...again.

Movie 9 - 'Bojack Unbound'
In a new world martial arts tournament, all the greatest fighters from across the universe are gathered to do battle. However, the tournament is hijacked by a group of criminal aliens and their leader Bojack who want to take over the world for their own evil deeds...and again the Z-fighters show up to save the day.

Of course, the movies are predictable, but they were never meant to blow us away. They are just an extra piece of DBZ action for fans looking to satisfy their fix.
The reason that they missed out movie 8 from this set is because it is the first of the three Broly films which have been released as a triple feature in the next steelbook set. So rejoice Broly fans, the next movie pack should be brill.
Like previous DBZ movies, Android 13 and Bojack are low on story and high on action, making them very easy to watch, but also very forgettable at the same time. The same remastering of the series is applied to these movies giving them a new clean and polished look. There is also the usual choices of audio which give the viewers the opportunity to experience DBZ in many different ways. These are:
1.Japanese with english subs
2.English with Japanese soundtrack
3.American TV broadcast version
As with the previous DBZ movies, these 2 are mostly recommended to hardcore fans of the series or completionists of the entire DBZ collection. They are definetly no where near as good as the amazing TV series, but they are a good to watch for fans looking for some more DBZ action.

Decent DBZ Blu-Ray 22 Dec 2008
By Reconnecting To My Childhood - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Blu-ray
This set collects DBZ movies 7 & 9. They have been working on rereleasing all 13 DBZ movies and 2 television specials in remastered format on DVD and putting them out simultaneously on Blu-Ray in High Def. The set's each contain two movies and they have been releasing them in order coinciding with the recent series set releases.

This set contains the movies 7 'Android Assault' (renamed since the original north american release was named 'Super Android 13') and 9 'Bojack Unbound'. This set contains the 7th and 9th movies as they opted to release movie 8 'Broly The Legendary Super Saiyan' with Broly's second appearance in movie 10 'Broly Second Coming', which was released earlier because of the popularity Broly has among fans.

Movie 7 'Android Assault' was always a story I liked, it finds Goku and the guys (including Future Trunks) in the city shopping and running various errands. After some humorous character interactions the story kicks in when it is revealed Dr. Gero had three more androids (13,14,15) being prepared to fight Goku and his friends. The androids attack the guys in the city and the three super saiyans (Goku, Trunks and Vegeta) quickly move the fight to a northern climate where no innocents will be hurt. Gohan and Krillin come along and provide some comic relief as the three androids face off against the three super saiyans. In the end Android 13 is more than meets the eye and becomes the unstoppable Super Android 13 taking down all of the guys. This is one of the movies with the familiar formula of Goku being granted the others energy in the end to attempt a final blow at the big bad but at least in this one the others also step in to help him a little more at the end. This is an entertaining movie that any DBZ fan should enjoy.

Movie 9 'Bojack Unbound' was always one of my favorites because it 'retells' my favorite moment in DBZ history where SS2 Gohan uses the one arm Kamehameha with help from his father's spirit. The plot takes place after the cell games and of all the movies taking place out of story continuity this one is actually possible despite not being considered canon. After destroying King Kai's planet Goku has unleashed a terrible imprisoned Villain, Bojack, and his crew. Meanwhile on earth a millionare throws a tournament that the remaining Z fighter's enter to win the cash, even Chi Chi allows Gohan to attempt the cash prize for his education. In the final rounds Bojack and his gang arrive and start taking out the Z Fighter's eventually leaving only Gohan, the only SS2, to stop them. The ending plays out simliar to the end of the cell games and this movie is very entertaining with another original villain idea and design. I enjoyed it.

All the DVD rereleases are not only remastered but come two discs in a steelbook case with nice artwork and title's that line up complementary on a shelf where my old DBZ movies had several mismatched themes across the thirteen movies. The Blu-Ray come with the two movies on one disc and are in the usual Blu-Ray style cases but with nice complementary artwork just the same. The new set designs and remastered and High Def format's may not be enough of a reason for some to double dip for movies they already own but some others and I appreciate it while others who haven't bought them yet get a more affordable chance. Also with two movies per set you save alot of shelf space, and most of us have shelves that are beginning to get a little overcrowded by now.

Great pair of movies, I know everyone likes Broly but in terms of movie villains I would put Broly, Cooler then Bojack and Android 13. They should have brought Bojack back for a second go instead of throwing in more random underdeveloped villains in later movies. My only issue is that they passed up another chance to put Super Saiyan 2 Gohan on a cover opting instead for Vegeta.

If you like this you'll like the steelbook set containing the two specials, 'The History of Trunks' and 'Bardock the Father of Goku'. Thanks for your time.

Great Movie if you watch only in Japanese 12 Jan 2011
By M, Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Blu-ray|Amazon Verified Purchase
Both of these movies are great and filled with action. Do yourself a favor and only watch it in Japanese. The English dub is horrible!!! It's like the english voice actors didn't even take the movie seriously, especially in the Android movie. If you watch the movie with subtitles you will see that the english actors just basically made up their own script which is horrible.

Good movie, worth the buy 20 Nov 2010
By Ninja Paradise - Published on Amazon.com
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
I got this one for cheap mainly because these aren't the most popular of the DBZ movies. The Super Android 13 movie was exciting but predictable at the same time. They went super saiyan and easily dispatched their foes. The battle with super 13 ended with a classic spirit bomb. Considering not one of them could handle super 13.

The Bojack movie wasn't the best but I enjoyed it. Teen Gohan is a major favorite in DBZ. A movie with him going Super Saiyan 2 is a beautiful thing. When it happens it puts a smile on your face because you know no one is gonna survive this one. I'd suggest buying this one. It's worth the money
