Cooler appears in the fifth Dragon Ball Z movie: Cooler's Revenge. The movie opens with Freeza destroying planet Vegeta. In his ship, Cooler notices a space pod coming from the planet, a space pod containing the Saiyan baby Kakarot. Cooler tells his men to let it go, as he believed that it was Freeza's fault that someone escaped. Years later, Kakarot, now Son Goku, would become a Super Saiyan and defeat Freeza. When Cooler found out about this, he and a few of his best forces headed to Earth to restore his family's honor. Cooler confronts Goku, and tries to blast Son Gohan, but Goku gets in the way of the blast. Kuririn takes Goku away while Gohan goes to get a Senzu bean to heal his father. After getting the bean, Cooler's forces catch up to him, but Piccolo comes in to save him. Gohan eventually gets to Goku and gives him the bean. Goku confronts Cooler, now fully healed, and finds that Cooler had beaten Piccolo. Goku begins to fight in rage, and is able to keep up, but Cooler reveals that he has one more form than Freeza, and transforms.
After transforming, Cooler fights Goku effortlessly, and has no problem fighting Goku in his Kaio-ken form either. Cooler begins destroying things all over and in the process, kills a bird. This makes Goku think about what will happen to the people he loves if Cooler wins, and he transforms into a Super Saiyan. After Goku transforms, Cooler finds that he cannot keep up with him, so summons up a ball of energy, to destroy the planet which would kill Goku. Goku uses a Kamehameha wave and pushes Cooler back, straight into the sun. As he dies, Cooler realizes that Goku was that baby in the space pod 20 years ago, and he was a fool to have let the space pod go over 20 years prior.
