5.0 out of 5 stars A Masterpiece, February 3, 2000

By	"vegeta_dbz" (Marshfield, Wisconsin) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dragon Ball Z - Frieza - Death of a Prince (Uncut) [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Vegeta, the most interesting character in Dragon Ball Z, as you may have guessed, dies in this increadible tape. Vegeta was always my favorite character and he still is. Before the video, Vegeta is seen as a careless monster, killing anyone who opposses him. Vegeta realizes he is going to lose, and does not fight back as Frieza ruthlessly beats him. Vegeta is eventually killed by Frieza, but with his dying breath, Vegeta confesses his past. The most emotional scene I have seen in a long time, even in american film, was when Vegeta is crying while he tells Gokou about how Frieza has abused and humiliated him. Tears came to my eyes as the Saiyne prince used his last strength to confess his actions. THis is a truely magnificent video and a must own. THe most beatiful and meaningful episode of Dragon Ball Z to date is in this video. This video shows how death scenes are to be done. If you hate Vegeta or love Vegeta, you need to see this video. One of the last things Vegeta says is "He made me what I am today!" as he is weeping and cluching the sand of Namek's soil. This tape, was authenticly, a masterpiece.

This review is from: Dragon Ball Z - Frieza - Death of a Prince [VHS] (VHS Tape)

When I saw Vegeta lieing there hanging on by a thread,I cried =( .And when he told Goku about his past,I cried a heck of a lot more than he did!These episodes tell you just how rotton Freiza is.Not to mention that you learn more about Bardock,Goku's brave but crazy father.For all the Vegeta lovers out there,this movie is an absolute must!Maybe you won't laugh or fall in love all over again,but you'll definetly cry your brains out.Yep,it's that sad."sniff sniff"

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Exciting, January 30, 2000

By	An anonymus person (England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dragon Ball Z - Frieza - Death of a Prince [VHS] (VHS Tape)

After watching the three episodes in this video, I thought it was one of the best Dragon Ball Z episodes ever. In the first episode, no matter what Vegeta tries to stop Frieza, he can't hit Frieza. Even using this really powerful attack which Frieza blocks with one measley kick. In the second episode, Vegeta is givin a chance to join Frieza but he refuses. Because of that, Vegeta gets a serious beating. Also, Goku arrives on the scene fully healed just in time to hear about Vegeta's past life and why he grew up to be a violent person. Sadly, Goku also sees Vegeta die and does a proper burial for him. In the third episode, Goku fights Frieza but not without the consequences. Frieza aims a puple eye blast towards Namek turning it onto a lava land. Goku avoids almost every move Frieza throws at him and Goku even hits Frieza in the first part of the battle. I thought this was a great video but it had its boring scenes.
