* {{Narm}}:
** Jun asking Kazuya [[CaptainObvious if his father throwing him off a cliff when he has a kid is the reason why he’s so angry]] with ''complete sincerity.'' Though it could be argued Jun did so to get Kazuya to listen to her by claiming she was there, adding she tried (in vain) to get Heihachi to stop and even tried to help him.
** The fact that Lee’s big plan for world domination involves '''GENETICALLY-ALTERED DINOSAURS THAT CAN TURN INVISIBLE'''. For how serious the plot was taking itself up to this point (for a Tekken anime, at least), the fact that his plan resembles that of an old B-movie villain is just plain ''jarring''.
** For some, the licensed music used in the American version feels unfitting for the scenes they’re in, in particular how they picked a ''rap'' song for the final battle with Kazuya and Heihachi.
** While Kazuya’s '''MASSIVE''' eyebrows already look pretty ridiculous when he’s an adult, they look even more so when he was a little kid which kinda distracts from his tragic backstory. Ditto for Jin at the end.
** Speaking of Kazuya, his hair here is also a frequent source of mockery because, yes, his hair always looked a bit silly, being affectionately called a "Duck Butt" by fans, but here a lot of the times he looks like a bootleg [[Franchise/DragonBall Vegeta]] with how '''BIG''' it looks in a lot of shots.
** What’s Kazuya’s deduction after Nina tries to kill him '''AGAIN''' and Anna ''blows up'' the gym trying to kill him too? ''“Those two must be up to something!”'' [[SarcasmMode Nooo, really?]]
** In the original Japanese version, the ending is capped off by a rather relaxing song to go with the last image of Jun and Jin walking through a forest filled with animals. How does the English dub handle it? By ''blasting'' a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avCteSZK-Ec HARD ROCK song]] by Music/TheOffspring so loud it’s basically a jumpscare that takes you out of the moment. The fact that it accompanies such a calm and innocent image just comes across as '''INCREDIBLY''' tone deaf.

* NightmareFuel: ''Anna’s death''. [[GoryDiscretionShot While thankfully off-screen,]] she’s basically eaten alive by carnivorous dinosaur, with it apparently ''crushing her skull'' with its jaws. Not helped by her ''bloodcurling'' scream.
** Quite a lot of the violence is rather off-putting considering the games are ''nowhere near'' this bloody. In particular, when Kazuya grabs a Rex's jaws and '''TEARS THEM APART''' so much he basically ''rips its torso to shreds.''

* HarsherInHindsight: Kazuya in ''The Motion Picture'' is depicted in part as a MommasBoy who kept a picture of his late mother, Kazumi, in a locket around his neck, before losing it when Heihachi threw him off a cliff. [[{{VideoGame/Tekken7}} Almost twenty years later]], upon Kazumi becoming ChekhovsGunman in the games' storyline, this aspect of Kazuya would be integrated as well... only for him to learn that [[spoiler:Kazumi was willing to have [[{{VideoGame/StreetFighter}} Akuma]] kill him if he ever turned out evil, to which he both expresses shock and sorrow over the cherished memory of his mother being tarnished and can only laugh at the absurdity of yet ''another'' family member of his wanting him dead]].

** For some people, the rather out-of-place licensed music. After all, where else are you gonna find a scene of an anime babe taking a shower, with glimpses of her bare ass and breasts, set to Stabbing Westward's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NZsCYOM4j0 "Save Yourself"]]?



* RetroactiveRecognition: Lei here is voiced by Gray H. Haddock, who would then become more well-known for his voicework in ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'' and ''{{WebAnimation/RWBY}}.''

** [[CaptainObvious “Why are you so upset? Is it because your father threw you off thank cliff?”]] [[labelnote:Explanation]]People tend to bring up this gem from the dub every time the movie is brought up because it’s such a stupid question for one to ask to a friggin’ MISHIMA and yet it’s delivered with honest-to-God gravitas. Also to indicate the cheesiness of the whole movie.[[/labelnote]]

* OlderThanTheyThink: This movie is actually the first time Kazuya was shown with his now trademark scars all over his body, 5 whole years before Tekken 4. And instead of getting them from when Heihachi threw him inside a volcano, here he gets them from being slashed multiple times by dinosaurs. '''[[RuleOfCool Metal.]]'''

** The feud between Anna and Nina is barely explored, particularly how Anna seemed to have so many daddy issues with her father that she apparently ''murdered'' him. This revelation, by the way, happens less than a minute before she's killed.
