12	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic:
13	** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3adosUH-26s film's take on Turnabout Sisters' Ballad]] is a slowed-down chorus version that sounds beautiful, yet very haunting.
14	** The film's version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYbg8m7LIcc Objection!]] is a suitably intense take that stays faithful to the original 2001 theme while going for a more serious and cinematic vibe fitting for the film. It also adds a beautiful version of the objection theme from ''VisualNovel/ApolloJusticeAceAttorney'' at the end to top it all off.
15	** The film's take on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfbPKwz4rC4 Pursuit ~ Corner the Culprit]] is far more dramatic and suspenseful compared to the energetic and fast-paced original theme, but it is still incredibly tense and epic in its own way and fits well with the film's more serious tone.
16	** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gah_KTP_7oA Cross Examination~ Allegro 2001]] is an epic orchestrated rearrangement that stays very true to the dramatic and tense theme from the original game, while also expanding upon it.
17	* BaseBreakingCharacter: The film's depiction of Maya Fey is divisive amongst fans, largely due to the movie depicting her as being a [[AdaptationalAngstUpgrade serious, mature and hurt person]] as opposed to the upbeat and slightly ditzy GenkiGirl she was in the games. Some find the changes to work well for the more serious tone of the film and feel it is more appropriate for someone who had just lost her sister to murder, while others [[TheyChangedItNowItSucks dislike the changes]], arguing that the film's more serious depiction strips away much of what made Maya appealing and memorable in the games.
18	* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The Blue Badger stops the Judge from delivering a verdict by shoving his hand under the gavel. Then he falls to the floor and the head rolls off the suit, revealing... ''nobody.'' No one seems to notice or care, and the mystery of the haunted mascot suit is never touched upon for the rest of the movie.
19	* CompleteMonster: Manfred von Karma, [[FauxAffablyEvil while hiding under a polite exterior]], proves to be just as vile as his [[VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorney game counterpart.]] To maintain a perfect win streak, Manfred has falsified and concealed evidence for years, [[HeKnowsTooMuch murdering Gregory Edgeworth]] when he attempts to find proof of this. When Mia Fey is on the verge of solving said murder, known as the DL-6 Incident, Manfred hires the reporter, Redd White, to murder her. Later on, he sends a letter to Yanni Yogi, the suspect of the DL-6 Incident, detailing a plan to murder Robert Hammond and how to {{frame\|Up}} Manfred's adoptive son, Miles Edgeworth for it. When Phoenix finds out there's a connection between the DL-6 incident and the Robert Hammond murder, Manfred has Redd White poisoned to death to ensure Phoenix can't get information from him. He then intends to have Miles be declared guilty for the murder of Gregory. While he claims that his actions are for the sake of ensuring criminals are punished, von Karma proves himself to simply be an arrogant hypocrite willing to commit any atrocity for [[ItsAllAboutMe the sake of his reputation]].
20	* MemeticMutation: '''[[http://muffinthief.tumblr.com/post/123016403262/joyseeker56-newyorksjojo-i-havent-seen-this PHOENIX SCREAMS OFF CAMERA]]'''
21	* NarmCharm: A good amount of the movie qualifies due to the fact that most of the characters[[labelnote: *]] [[FreezeFrameBonus even the courtroom spectators]][[/labelnote]] look like cosplayers (albeit, fairly good ones), not to mention how they [[LargeHam overact]], oftentimes making hilarious faces and noises at the most inappropriate times. On a few occasions, Phoenix literally ''throws'' holographic images containing evidence at his opponents, and one particularly memorable scene involves him making the rather innocuous observation that "a little after midnight on Christmas Eve" is the start of Christmas day, which inexplicably causes everyone in the court (including ''[[TheStoic Edgeworth]]'') to fall to the ground in a collective dead faint. That said, this is part of why the movie is so well-loved amongst fans and critics. It helps that it is very faithful to the games.
22	* TheScrappy: The InNameOnly version of Redd White here, courtesy of AdaptationDistillation.
23	* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: Although the film is well regarded by fans for being a good PragmaticAdaptation that is true to the spirit of the first game, some of the more drastic changes, such as the more serious depictions of Gumshoe and Maya Fey, as well as Redd White's completely different occupation and appearance, have received this response by fans.
