- Awesome Music: ZONKED!!!
- Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: Cacofonix's song and its psychedelic visuals at the beginning of the film. Getafix was absolutely off his gourd when it happened. Or else, Cacofonix was holding out on the village all this time; he CAN sing decently, after all!
- Only the Creator Does It Right: This was the first Asterix film (not counting Asterix the Gaul) to be produced without the involvement of any of René Goscinny (who died in 1977), Albert Uderzo, or Pierre Tchernia's writing, and is generally agreed to have seen the animated Asterix films go into a slump that they wouldn't properly break out of until Asterix: The Mansions of the Gods a quarter-century later.
- Sequelitis: Asterix and the Big Fight is usually considered among the weakest of the franchise's animated entries, tied with Asterix the Gaul (1967) and Asterix Conquers America (1994). In this case, the main criticisms are that it goes too far into Denser and Wackier territory, that the two source stories mesh together poorly — unlike Asterix Versus Caesar, whose source stories were much more thematically similar — along with the additional issues created by the U.S. dub's clunky pop culture references and general lack of faithfulness to the series.
