Since the debut of the anime adaptation of Akira Toriyama's Dr. Slump manga series in 1981, Toei Animation (formerly Toei Doga) has produced 11 animated films based on the franchise.

In 2008, all eleven films were released in a remastered DVD box set titled Slump the Box Movies on September 21. On June 12, 2013, Discotek Media announced they acquired the first five Dr. Slump films for release in North America. They released all five in a two-disc DVD box set in Japanese with English subtitles on July 29, 2014.

The first film was produced just three months after the anime started, being shown at the Toei Manga Festival (, Tōei Manga Matsuri) alongside One Hundred and One Dalmatians and Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan. Dr. Slump and Arale-chan: Hello! Wonder Island (, Dokutā Suranpu Arare-chan Harō! Wandā Airando) was released on July 18, 1981. It adapts chapters 32 and 33 of the manga, following as Senbei Norimaki travels to Wonder Island in order to acquire an ingredient for a love potion. It was released on VHS on August 14, 1987. An anime comic adaptation was released in March 1995.

Dr. Slump: "Hoyoyo!" Space Adventure (, Dokutā Suranpu Hoyoyo! Uchū Dai Bōken) entered theaters on July 10, 1982. It follows Senbei and the other main characters as they venture into space to save Midori Yamabuki from being forced to marry the galactic tyrant Mashirito. A novelization written by one of the screenwriters Shun'ichi Yukimuro was released on July 15, 1982. The film was released on VHS on December 15, 1984. An anime comic adaptation was released in April 1995. The anime comics of the first and second films were collected together and released under the Shueisha Jump Remix imprint in December 2006. The soundtrack to the film was released on September 22, 2004 by Columbia Music Entertainment under the title Dr. Slump Music Collection (Dr.SLUMP 音楽集, Dokutā Suranpu Ongaku-shū).
