bradleygranz Dragon ball z cooler revenge was awesome movie awesome fights cool soundtrack its is so awesome you have to watch it

John Doe This was a great DBZ movie, the English dub is well done by FUNimation is well dubbed by FUNimaion and as an added bonus the DVD even includes a Spanish language track! How cool is that? All in all, it has great battles, and a good story. This is a worthy DBZ movie for your collection. I give Dragon Ball Z: Cooler's Revenge a 8/10.

talarisw I'm a big fan of dragonball and dragonball Z and this is the 5th of 12 DBZ movie spin-offs. And it's also one of the best! This and any DBZ movie is strictly for fans. All the dbz movies are very similar, a powerful villain and his henchmen, the villain's super transformation, and their all about 45minutes long. Also the confusing continuity that's in the dbz movies. It's hard to say if this movie is cannon to the TV series, the continuity between the movies and TV series is very confusing, because in some ways the continuity fits, other ways not. Well in this story Freiza was killed on Namek, he was not yet or never was brought back to life by his dad,King Cold. Goku came back to earth soon after wards, before the arrival of Garlic Jr. and the androids. But what makes this movie better then other dbz movies is that it has a great villain, Cooler. The plot is simple and predictable but it was a good idea by dbz creator Akyria Toiyami of making Freiza have a brother and making him a cool(pun intended) character. First I like his name, Cooler aka Coola. I like his look, he looks like both Freiza and his dad but he's kind of handsome in a alien kind of way. His English voice is perfect with his look. I like his personality, he's evil and arrogant like his dad & brother but he seems to have a more no nonsense attitude while Freiza prolonged a lot stuff. Also Cooler seems to be more hands on while Freiza let his henchman do his work. But I think it dosen't make sense that Cooler has only three henchmen while Freiza had an entire army but it's possible he has an army we don't see and they only briefly explain his role in the evil family business, apparently Cooler & Freiza have their own domains in the galaxy, made clear by Cooler saying "Freiza's the one in charge of this quadrant" & "I got seven planets to destroy by the end of the day" but since he's only in this one movie they don't explain him more then they need to. Cooler's special forces, Armored Squardan, are pretty cool. I like the leader Saiza. I like Cooler's relationship with Freiza, the two were rivals and Cooler's so cold hearted he dosen't even care about his brother's death just how it disgraced his family name. The fights in this movie are really good. Cooler's 4th transformation is great, he looks like a football player from hell and Goku's transformation to super saiyan works well into the story. How Goku defeats Cooler is great. My favorite part is the opening,where Cooler makes a pit stop to see Freiza destroy planet Vegeta, great way to introduce him and it comes full circle at the end. The English dubbed version might be better then the original Japanese version with better dialog and I love the heavy metal music that plays through out the story. Cooler is my favorite dbz movie villain and I'm glad they brought him back for a sequel. A dbz classic!

AnthonyRS1983 This is the fifth Dragon Ball Z movie to be released during the series' Japanese TV run. When Cooler finds out that his brother Frieza was defeated by a Saiyan, he and his three henchmen go to Earth to seek revenge and destroy the planet as Piccolo, Gohan, and Krillin attempt to help an injured Goku get his strength back and defend the Earth. This movie was an improvement over the lasr DBZ movie as the plot centered around a villain closely related to a major villain in the DBZ TV series. This DBZ movie attempts to try some new things, such as putting more of a focus on Piccolo, Krillin, and Gohan in the battles and spicing the battle sequences with samurai-film-like elements. As DBZ fans will enjoy the battles and the villain, this DBZ movie's plot suffers from being a bit shallow as it only focuses on the villain's plan to destroy Earth. Also, DBZ fans may be a bit disappointed by the movie's short running time of 47 minutes.GRADE: 2.5 out of 5
