* [[ClicheCliché Storm]]: There's an eclipse, an apocalyptic showdown, ancient sealed powers, an ordinary high school student, a Chosen One prophecy, and a tragically dead parent figure. But eclipse, ordinary high school student, and prophecy aside, this [[Mis Blamed|isn't the fault of the adaptation]]; just about all of the rest is present in the original anime and manga. Then again, the anime didn't attempt to squeeze "all of the rest" in at once.
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny]]: The aforementioned unchangeable "Saiyan Hair" reasserting itself after Goku tries to slick it back with gel.
** Master Roshi hops onto the motorcycle behind Bulma. A second later, she points her gun at his head and orders him to get his hands away from her or she'll fire.
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]]: Naturally, it did well in Asia (outside of Japan where it lost to ''[[Yatterman (Anime)|Yatterman]]''), going number one early on before dropping off. It should be noted that it was number one for several ''weeks'' at Asian box offices, and while the reception was mixed it is still rather popular and well-liked outside the US.
* [[Ham and Cheese]]: [[James Marsters]] as Piccolo and Chow Yun-Fat as Roshi were ''awesome'' casting choices.
* [[So Bad ItsIt's Good]]: Your mileage may vary, but most of the reactions were negative, even from those who never saw the animated series. That said, it can be [[Snark Bait|enjoyable]]. A small minority think it [[So Okay ItsIt's Average|was a decent film in its own right]]. And as stated above, alot of people in Asia love the film.
* [[Special Effect Failure]]: See what Goku's head collided with when grandpa Gohan knocked him off. Sure, he was falling pretty fast, but melons shouldn't be THAT soft, should they? Also in the previous scene, one of Goku's kick didn't even touch his granpda. [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Force_kick Force Kick] in effect? The 2 consecutive failures can be seen in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRlMwC3Q-Do one video].
** There's also that one scene with Goku and Piccolo in a Ki blast struggle... that ends with Goku shooting himself towards Piccolo with no propulsion whatsoever and in the same Kamehameha firing pose.
