Live action films

Live action films
A live-action Mandarin Chinese film adaptation of the series, Dragon Ball: The Magic Begins, was released in Taiwan Province in Republic of China in 1989.[7] Considered a "tacky" version of the story by critics,[7] the plot revolves around a rag-tag group of heroes, led by "Monkey Boy" (Goku) trying to stop King Horn from using the wish-granting "Dragon Pearls" (Dragon Balls) to rule the world.

In March 2002, 20th Century Fox acquired feature film rights to the Dragon Ball franchise[50] and began production on an American live action film entitled Dragonball Evolution.[51] Ben Ramsey was tapped to create a screenplay based on Dragon Ball Z.[52] Directed by James Wong and produced by Stephen Chow,[51] the film was released in the United States on April 10, 2009.[53]
