Summary: Better than COOLER'S REVENGE!
Review: Compared to the it's sister video, COOLER'S REVENGE, THE RETURN OF COOLER is soooo much better. This video is the first, of those I own, that has Vegeta involved. When Vegeta figures he can't fight Cooler on his own, Goku says they must work together. Of course, Vegeta says stay out of his way, but he doesn't do ANYTHING to stop Goku from helping him! I was impressed and shocked. In COOLER'S REVENGE, Goku doesn't turn Super Saiyan until the end - bummer-, but in THE RETURN OF COOLER, just when you think Vegeta and Goku couldn't be their super selves anymore, they prove you wrong! I recommend for anyone who either has or has not seen COOLER'S REVENGE to get this video. You will not be disappointed!

Summary: cooler
Review: Cooler is basically in this. If you like super saiyan you will love, if u think fusing is in here it is not i repeat not. It is pretty good i have seen the japenese version dubbed in english. Also the commercial. This is VEGETA'S FIRST MOVIE movie 6. The next movie VEGETA is in is movie 7. VEGETA is the one who is in this because he has a score to settle with Freiza but takes out on Meta (metal) Cooler.

Summary: Pretty Bad (English Dub Version)
Review: I love the dragonball Z series and was warned that the movies weren't that great, but I decided to check this one out since Vegeta was in it.

This movie gets some credit for the musical score and fight scenes which were both pretty cool. And finally it gets an extra point for Goku and Vegeta working together, with some great dialog between them.

Goku- It was nice knowing you Vegeta
Vegeta- Oh Shut Up

However, the plot was completely ridiculous. Now that I think about it, it barely had a plot. Hey it was great that vegeta was in the movie, but it never explained how he just happened to appear on the planet.
Yeah sure they wanted Cooler to seem like an extremely invincible villian. But I've never seen Vegeta and Goku so out of it from fighting any villian on the series, even villians that had to be ten times stronger than Cooler.
This was one giant plot hole, didn't fit into the series at all. I am guessing it happened somewhere after Trunks first appeared but before the Androids came (otherwise Trunks would have been there, and if it was before Vegeta wouldn't be a super saiyan) but I am absolutely sure no one found out Vegeta was a super saiyan until the Android Saga. But here he was, showing it off, and Goku didn't even act shocked.

Cooler did not come close to his brother Frieza that's for sure.
If I was asked to explain the plot of this movie I wouldn't know where to begin.

Well I'll admit the movie was so dumb that it actually made me laugh. Maybe I should give it an extra point for that.

Summary: "Cooler's Revenge was better..."
Review: I won't lie to you, this is indeed a good DBZ movie, but Cooler's Revenge was much better and had all that hard rock music in it. There is no Disturbed or Drowning Pool to be heard in this, all the music is composed, no words. Meta-Cooler sounded really great, though, his voice echoed slightly, like any robot's voice should. This one has Super Saiyans, and is the first movie in which Vegeta appears. Of course, you wonder how he knew where to find Cooler and Goku, he just kind of shows up. Vegeta has a cool voice, sounds very serious, and ready to punch Meta-Cooler's head off, but he doesn't succeed in doing so, not without Goku's help. The ending is good, but I don't know if it was necessary for there to be a giant Meta-Cooler towards the end, it's kind of weird. DBZ Return of Cooler is one you should get, but don't expect fusions or Gotenks or anything, it's still too early for that.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Return of Cooler clasic combat
Review: I would have to say that this movie is better than Cooler's Revenge. If you liked Cooler's Revenge than definently get this one. It has all the clasic combat you love about DragonballZ and twists and turns all over the place. One plus is that you get to see New Namek(You may not like it at the begining but after they clean up it looks better). And also you get to see Vegeta's full Super Saiyan abilities. I truly think this deserves all four out of five stars the producers really outdid themselves.

Summary: Better Battles
Review: The reason I rate this movie so high (having already seen it), is that the fights are more technical than they have been before. What I mean is instead of the plain old punch-you-a-hundred-times routine we see so often, in this movie it's almost like a well choreographed jackie chan movie. Once you see the first battle with cooler, vegeta, and goku you'll see what I'm saying. It's not all big explosions and flurries of kicks and punches. It makes for a nice change of pace. I saw this movie before cooler's revenge, and it's nowhere near as good as this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Well worth watching..."
Review: The sixth DBZ movie, "The Return of Cooler" was released in Japan under the title "Clash!! The 10 Billion Power Warriors". And we are rewarded greatly because Vegeta finally appears in a movie, and with Goku's help he [beats up] Meta-Cooler... I really like this movie and I thought FUNimation did a really good job on it. The movie starts off showing the Big Gete Star wrapping itself around Namek. Sensing the peril of his people, Dende sends Goku and his friends to Namek to check it out. They find that the Nameks have been enslaved by a bunch of robots, and behind the robots is an old enemy...Cooler! He has created a new metal body for himself, which is on the front cover, and it is known as Meta-Cooler. Although there is no music from bands like Disturbed or Drowning Pool, the soundtrack is cool and does go well with the movie. I loved the battle between Meta-Cooler and S.S. Goku, it was just cool, and I thought it was cool when Cooler was about to punch Vegeta and Goku saw it and stopped him. The fights between the Z-fighters and the battle droids were cool, and the droids looked really awesome. The cover is designed really well, and it stays true to it's original Japanese cover, which I really think should have been done with "Cooler's Revenge". I wonder how the cover art to movie 7 will look. Well, we'll just have to wait and see. I've only seen the edited version, but I bet the uncut is better, everyone is saying that it is, so I'll have to check that one out, but that'll have to be on DVD. I thought the last fight scene with Goku and the giant, damaged Meta-Cooler was pretty cool, but sort of weird. If you buy this movie and hold it under light, you'll notice that the lighter shadowed parts on Meta-Cooler will disappear, so they must have done something to the cover to make it do that, it's pretty clever. The scene where Cooler tries to hit Goku and misses was really clever, because it is revealed that Meta-Cooler knows a certain attack that we thought only Goku could perform. Meta-Cooler's voice was great, it sounded just like Cooler in "Cooler's Revenge" only echoed like a robot's voice, which is a good thing considering that's what he is. The voices are played by the voice actors from the series once again, and finally they didn't re-use the plot of Piccolo suddenly arriving to save Gohan. It's 45 minutes of intense action and very clever dialogue and activity, so I definitely suggest you pick up "The Return of Cooler" today!
