Summary: One of the best DBZ dvds so far....
Review: First off you get 4 episodes instead of just 3 which is always great. Then you add some great fighting and you get one great deal. Though i must say this is DBZ at its most violent. I'm not complaining, I was just a little shocked at first. Though I wont give away any details to ruin it for you. Lets just say there are 2 scenes that are quite brutal. My favorite part though is when a certain someone returns and is back with a vengeance. This DVD is SO cool!!!

Summary: Frieza's Transformation
Review: Frieza's first transformation is hard. Anyways, while Goku is recovering, it seems that everyone is on Frieza's hit list. First on the list is Krillin, then Gohan takes a shot at him and holds his own for a while, until Frieza crushes him that is. But then, Krillin makes a comeback thanks to the healing power of Dende, he buys Him the time he needs to heal Gohan. But what's this. Piccolo The Super Namek appears to fight Frieza. It seems like a death wish has been granted for Piccolo, but with his strength increased, Piccolo takes it to Frieza. Can Piccolo buy Goku the time he needs to recover in time? Watch more of the Frieza saga and find out!!!!

Summary: Everyone takes a shot at Frieza.
Review: Goku is recovering to full strength and not able to fight, so Gohan, Krillin and Vegeta are left with Frieza. The uncut only episode: Gohan Attacks is actually a little funny I think. I've never seen this kind of violence in DBZ before. I thought Vegeta said Goku would only need an hour to recover, and it seemed like hours before he finally recovered, but there's lots of action.

Summary: The Storm Called Frieza
Review: Once Frieza has arrived on the scene, everything goes nuts. In "Fighting Power One Million" Frieza reveals the death of Vegita's father and Planet Namek. And to celebrate this reminising, he transforms into a giant. In "Gohan's Attack" Frieza attacks Krillin for the worst. Stabbing him in the stomach with his horn and throwing him into the lake. This leaves Gohan furious and he launches an all out assault against Frieza. Thanks to Dende, Krillin is ok, but Gohan is now the one in jeopardy. In "Piccolo The Super Namek" Krillin must lure Frieza away from Gohan until Piccolo arrives. One Piccolo arrives, things get ugly. In "Deja Vu" Frieza and Piccolo go one on one in an all out grudge match. Piccolo also reveals his new power after having fused with Nail.

The menus have really improved with nice music and fair graphics. Still, I wish FUNimation could include a different kind of extra instead of previews. The menu is basically inside a Capsule Corp ship. The video quality is much, MUCH improved over the last discs. You get the original opening and closings, but their textless, so don't expect to see the original Japanese voice cast. I thought Frieza in his second form sounded like Principal Kuno from Ranma 1\2. If you have to buy one DBZ disc, make sure it's this one. You won't regret it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This an excellent DVD, a must buy
Review: This DVD showcases the first real fight Gohan, Krillen, and Vegeta have against Frieza in his second form. It includes an uncut-only episode by the name of "Gohan Attack's" which is a pretty intense episode that I highly reccommend watching. The other episodes also have plenty of action along with other details. For example, you learn a lot about the Saiyans in an interesting flashback during the first episode.

The final episode has a big surprise that you should be able to see on the cover of this DVD. Finally watching Piccollo take on Frieza is simply amazing. Anyway, these four episodes have plenty of action and are a must buy. The actual DVD has no real extra's or anything, but you should be used to that if you buy Dragon Ball Z DVD's often. These are episodes not to be missed. Make sure you don't.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Continuing Tradition Of More Great DBZ!!
Review: This is another great DVD of Dragon Ball Z, entering the third chapter of The Frieza Saga. For those that have been following DBZ on DVD for the last 60+ episodes, you'll be excited to know that on this disc the action-packed epic 30 episode long battle with Frieza finally begins. While the dubbed English voices are still really cheesy, (most likely because Funimation is now handling the dubbing, rather than Pioneer, that handled it on the first 17 volumes), thankfully you can watch the original Japanese version with english subtitles. I noticed major differences in the dialogue between the two versions is different - nothing major - the main points are still made, but sometimes scenes in English look a little awkward with the made-for-american-TV dialogue. This is still lots of fun, thought - and addicting as ever!
