* CompleteMonster: In this unlicensed adaptation of the ''Franchise/DragonBall'' franchise, [[EvilOverlord King Horn]] is an [[AliensAreBastards alien]] that seeks to collect the seven Dragon Pearls and use them to rule the universe. Horn [[EstablishingCharacterMoment starts off the film]] by massacring an entire village full of people, with possibly thousands of victims murdered. Horn then heads inside the temple and personally slaughters the dozens of monks guarding the Dragon Pearl and then steals it. Horn later threatens hero Monkey King's grandfather with death if they don't give him their Dragon Pearl. Horn then tries to kill them all by using the villagers as [[NightOfTheLivingMooks zombies]].

** SoOkayItsAverage: Surprisingly, there's a small part of the ''Dragon Ball'' fanbase who appreciated the movie unironically, finding it a satisfactorily entertaining adaptation, which doesn't do a terrible job at capturing the light hearted atmosphere of the original ''Manga/DragonBall'' series. This even in spite of abundant SpecialEffectFailure and {{Narm}}.

* VindicatedByHistory: The film couldn't but benefit from the critical flop that was ''Film/DragonballEvolution'', which led many to re-evaluate ''The Magic Begins''.

** The ConspicuousCG in the Ultimate Edition, especially when it abruptly cuts to fully CG scenes that look hideously dated and out of place with the rest of the movie.

HilariousInHindsight: Say, Piggy's true form [[Music/{{PSY}} looks a little familiar...]]
* SoBadItsGood: This movie has so many cheap special effects and bizarre decisions made that it becomes hilarious to watch. One cannot appreciate the insanity of it unless they see it for themselves.
* SpecialEffectFailure: Rubber Crocodile Fight. That Dear lord.
** Whenever Goku or someone else (usually Sparkle or Westwood) flies, you can obviously tell WireFu
is all.at play. Oftentimes, they look like they're just sliding across the frame!

** When Goku fights a crocodile, it's obviously a rubber prop.
