1* BigLippedAlligatorMoment:
2** In the uncut version, the village girls that come out of nowhere and start to sing as Ivan leaves home is never commented on or brought up again.
3** At one point the movie basically stops, and we have a scene with baby bears moving giant mushrooms around. It doesn't advance the plot in any way, it doesn't make any sense, but damned if it's not [[RuleOfCute adorable.]]
4** Ivanuska ''spanking'' Literature/BabaYaga [[HeadTiltinglyKinky qualifies]].
5--->'''[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 Crow]]:''' So the premise of this movie is that everybody is nuttier than all get-out?
6* CommonKnowledge: It's often misremembered that Ivan wakes Nastenka up from being frozen with a kiss much like Literature/SleepingBeauty. A simple apology is enough to do the trick. Even the remake changes it to a kiss.
7* HollywoodHomely: The actress playing Marfushka isn't actually ''ugly,'' but she spends the vast majority of the film pouting, whining, making faces and being a SpoiledBrat, which all add up to a pretty unattractive effect.
8* {{Moe}}: Nastenka.
9* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu "Bring on my fiancee. And my dowry! A really big dowry and MAKE IT QUICK!"]]
10** Doubles as a SugarWiki/{{Funny Moment|s}} at the same time, especially when Father Frost starts calling out for help.
11* {{Narm}}: Most of the film, but in the English dubs, some man does "Hunchback Fairy"'s voice, ending up sounding like Creator/EricIdle's drag voice in ''Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus''. The original actor and voice for Baba Yaga were a man, though, Georgiy Millyar, so a man dubbing "her" voice.
12** When Baba Yaga is put into the oven, she calmly yells "Ooooh I'm cooking! I'm roasting!"
13* SoBadItsGood: Quite a few [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]] fans agree that this is one of the few movies the show featured that's entertaining with ''and'' without the SOL crew's riffing.
14* SpecialEffectFailure: Ivan's bear makeup.
15** Any reason for the cartoon sound effects, such as the clanging pot whenever Baba Yaga hits herself in the head?
16*** Because it's a broad slapstick comedy made for kids. It pretty much ''is'' a live-action cartoon.
17* TearJerker:
18** Nastenka's HeroicSacrifice for the sake of her father is played straight and surprisingly effective.
19--->'''Nastenka:''' Good-bye, Daddy... Remember your daughter who loved you...
20** Father Frost beating himself up and calling himself dunce, nitwit, and donkey when forgetting his scepter is PlayedForLaughs. When he returns home and finds Nastenka frozen, it becomes this.
21--->'''Father Frost:''' You idiot. You dunce. You nitwit. You donkey. [[ItsAllMyFault You didn't watch over her.]]
