Alex saying “oh I loved it Joe, you know me” killed me LMAO
I put my hamster in a sock and slammed it against the furniture
@@TippyHippy nice
That was honestly hilarious
it killed you but you're still able to type this comment? From the grave? I don't know man, something just aint adding up.
@@adidab14 You don't think they'd be lying on the internet... would they?
“They risked absolutely nothing, and that’s what they accomplished.”
A good description of Illumination’s output in general.
If they did something risky and different they would have complained that they didn’t stick to the source material
@@colbym72 They can both be risky and be true to the source matrial.
@@jeremybaker5452 and still would’ve complained about that too.
@@colbym72 That honestly wasn't going to happen as long as Nintendo was watching them like a hawk.
What other animation studio takes risks? Pixar? The guys who do the exact same story over and over again with the same formula.
"Video games are meant to be just one thing. Fun. Fun for everyone!" ~ Satoru Iwata
I believe the movie did just that.
I dint have fun.
Nothing is done vee just one thing. Definitely not video games
But not everyone had fun, 🤷♂️
This is a movie, not a video game
I didn't have fun
My only criticism of the movie was that it was way too short. I loved the opening, how it immersed us into the Mario bro's life and family. But as soon as they entered the tunnel the rest of the movie was go here, go there, now we go there. It was great, but it could've used a little more plot building and mabey some deeper dialogue and story building between Mario and Peach.
What i heard is that the movie was short due it being a kids movie. Most kids can't sit through a 2 hour movie. i didn't have an issue with the time. My kids loved it. i loved it. My daughter wanted me to buy it right away to watch at home lol.
As soon as they went through the portal i thought it got lame real quick
@@rafaelochoa9776 I've watched lot of animated films that are an hour and a half. And they're paced greatly. It's not much of a matter of how much time you have, it's a matter of how you balance and execute. Don't get me wrong, I find the Mario film decent. But this is honestly not a good excuse.
If that didn't happen, audience reviews be like: "It took too long to get to where we wanted to go!"
"I tried so hard....to like this film....but in the end, it doesn't even matter"
"The story is paper thin"
Paper Mario confirmed from Joe
That's Mario for ya.
I dunno how y'all didn't laugh at Bowser singing about Peaches. That had me rolling!
Me too, everyone in our theater was dying laughing during that part lol
For me Bowser singing his "Peaches" song, both during the movie & for the post credit scene was cringy. Seeing a big menacing villain do that musical number and gushing over Peach was embarrassing.
@@ry.hillnerit was random and it was cool hearing jack black singing. Him lusting over Peach was weird.
@@TehStylishone I get it feels weird, but theoretically looking back at the games, it spot on. Do you know the plot of Mario Odyssey? He kidnaps peach just to marry her on the MOON. I think that's what they are getting at
@@ry.hillner Yeah I wasn't the biggest fan but at the same time I feel like Nintendo is trying to get an understanding of what people like from these characters moving forward
I’m surprised they didn’t like the “my dad thinks I’m a failure”
“Oh yeah? He’s right!”
Was the best break of expectations it had me and my friends rolling
Donkey Kong was an asshole in this movie lol. One of the best parts
they are humourless at this point so im not surprised at all
@@imalittletoxicjustalittle 👏🏾
I thought that was a shitty move on his part! Mario had just saved his life.
Finally saw it on Netflix. While not boring it had no soul or depth. Separating the brothers at the start was dumb but I guess they did not want a woman to be a damsel in distress so instead made Peach an absolute badass. Would have been better to keep the bros together and they need to rescue Peach like in the games. 6/10 from me.
I liked a bunch of the callbacks. The track skip on Rainbow Road was fun. Brought me back.
Did you clap when you saw it?
@citizensmitt na but I did chuckle a bit.
@@citizen3000 I sure did baby
@@citizen3000 I CLAPPED SO MUCH
@@Valiyus I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!!!
Angry Joe: I had no expectations
Also Angry Joe: I expected a Lego movie quality movie
Maybe he kept that part in the back of his mind.
When AJ said "Sonic has better script than Mario" I fucking lol'd
@@ServantBerserkerZero well it has...
@@ServantBerserkerZero except that’s true
@@TheAwesomeness1123 they're the same: kids movie with shallow plot. The human actors were the worse part of the movie (except Jim Carrey ofc).
I’m with Alex (as usual) on this one. This story was soulless. Princess Peach was TERRIBLE! Like, she had no real personality. We got no back story on her. Dumb. She’s just really good at everything.
I found the Yandere Bowser really funny and the Luma as a Nihilist is someone i want a Merch from him.
Bower isn't really a yandere; more like a simp.
@@djdrizzy9139 i dont think so. He said: if i dont get Peach, i burn the mushroom Kingdom. So yeah full yandere
@@FilmTrekk yes
It's weird how every critic I've seen found different aspects of the movie funny / unfunny. I would have thought Jack Black's Bowser performance was universally praised. It's really well done and I like the angle they went with him. It's just the film needed more of this stuff instead of being overstuffed with shallow set pieces that have no proper story buildup.
Bowser was more like an entitled “nice guy” jealous incel tbh
😢 As soon as the video starts just look at Alex's face expression. You can see everything you need to know before Joe's review starts.
If you saw the movie and how the approach movies, you know how they were going to think about it
He has that same face in every episode though
Alex always looks like he hates life no matter what
Alex is just a sad prick lol
That's the face he does with ANY movie lol.
The movie felt like a long commercial for first party Nintendo Switch games.
My 5 year old kid wasn't impressed but enjoyed the parts where Bowser sang.
6/10
I'm harsh on movies these days and I really liked this movie. It was refreshing honestly.
Same. Reviewers don't know how to have fun. I've watched plenty of Oscar winning movies and I can enjoy deeper films. Seems like most adults and reviewers are stuck on "does not understand fun" mode.
Refreshingly generic and predictable? Felt like a worse minions movie.
@@Puggy42069 it was objectively awesome
@@linger4605what if I have fun with better movies 😮
@@slothmanfitness2290 Good for you? Why does it bother you that so many people are simply having fun with this movie? The movie is literally breaking records. Seems like the consensus doesnt agree with you.
I’m over 30 years old and I had a smile the whole time! I laughed several times and had a blast from start to finish. Can’t wait for more!
Hell ya
Same, I really can't wait to see what's next, especially with Yoshi coming out in the last scene after the credits. This was nostalgic and took me back to the nintendo, super nintendo, and wii days 😊
Same!
@@thisissnake-_-6874 I almost left and my kids made stay just in case something popped up and sure enough there it was lol!
Same dude me and my gf and our two boys enjoyed the hell out of it. This is the first review in a long time by these guy that I just completely disagree with. I was laughing from start to finish
It's funny I totally agree with all of your guys criticisms and yet I still had a great time. I definitely wish it had more heart like a Pixar film but I was entertained enough to really have fun with this one. The Easter eggs and score were great but you're right the pop music was over the top (which i just accepted and enjoyed after a while) and some of the chemistry was just ok. Still enjoyed it overall but appreciate you guys always being honest. Keep it up
I agree that the rock songs were WAY out of place. The actual soundtrack with the classic Mario songs were really well done. They didn’t need the 80s rock songs at all.
Peach is a BIT too powerful.
Mario and Luigi voices and dynamics were really good.
Charles Martinet’s voiced characters were perfect.
Toad was absolutely spot on perfect.
DK needs a new voice actor.
All the Easter eggs and references were very natural and well done.
The sequel will take it to a new level, this one I feel was just establishing what this world is and getting all the nostalgia out of the way.
As someone who grew up playing all the games this movie kicked ass. So many Easter eggs.
yeah is only that nostalgia nothing more, the movie was pretty boring in general
@@angeldark700 Not really, the jokes were pretty good, specially bowser.
Yea I actually loved this movie alot. This was leaps and bounds over Sonic 1 or 2.
@@Executor009 bowser is one of the worst aspects of the movie somehow
@@kristovj827 sonic 2>>>>> sonic 1 > odyssey cutscenes > this movie
To me I really enjoyed this movie! It bought me back so many memories and nostalgia playing all the Mario games.
Yes same!
And honestly that felt like the goal.
Thats why we will always get shit movies
For sure, loved the Brooklyn side scrolling level scene right out the gate 👌
thats what they were counting on. a bunch of idiots wasting their money on more unoriginal nostalgia
Thank god I thought I was alone… Vacuous. Soulless.
You know it's bad when Joe isn't wearing the costume at the start.
It was alright but the first sonic movie was better😊
its not bad
I feel like this movie was made more for the younger kids, like my 6 year old son, but they snuck enough references into the movie that I got some nostalgia hits. Great movie to take your kiddos to
Exactly how hard is it to be excited that you can share stuff like this with your kids lol last thing my kid wants to do is play Mario on my nes after playing his ps5 and he actually loved the damn movie that made my day !
@@llcoolg6758 What about playing more recent mario games on switch like mario odyssey or mario 3d world(which has coop for up to 4 players) those games are relatively modern and pretty good. Mario 3d world is a great game that whole family can play in coop.
I work at a movie theater, I've seen countless grown ass adults dressed up from head to toe in Mario character costumes.
Took my 8-year-old and she loved it!
Kinda sad that nostalgia bait is considered a good thing nowdays...
Love the honest review. Someone calling out this bad movie. The 90s live action was more 10x more original and better casted.
Its a movie for very small children who just need bright pretty pictures. Like a child's book.
Adults read novels boys and girls.
Schizo rambling.
@@yesterdayboy8885 sorry soy 'boy' lol. Did I hurt your feelings making fun of your cartoon? Aww. Here....some bacon to make it hurt less that your brain dead. 🥓
Dude wtf, all the bowser scenes were pretty funny, it feels like you guys watched a different movie.
"You didn't like it? But....but _I_ liked it.
_I LIKED IT!!!_ "
Sonic is written better? In what world? Let's go to the real world, guys! Everyone cares about the force inserted people included into the plot. How about sonic having an unessesary mother for no reason. A road trip with a character that goes faster than sound. I would take a love letter than a cheap lazy story with none. Edit: sonic was far beyond soulless and blockbuster. Your biased.
Sounds like you're speaking with a heavy bias
@@flashcolumbus5023 bro how bored are you? I know cause I’m pretty bored, just scrolling through the newest Comments you just copied and pasted this a bunch of times? Man your sick in the head 😂
Angry Joe is now more aligned with the "critics" than with the fans...
Wow...
It's time to grow up, Rodrigo
Well it is his job ? 😂😂😂
Its because of Alexs influence on the show
@@christianglass9139 You guys seriously expect them to be clapping seals? Do you understand what their job is - do you think it's to agree with whatever a majority of their subscribers think?
God you guys are totally pathetic.
I don’t understand why the kong that drove them wasn’t Funky Kong and they could have played “jungle boogie”. It literally checks all the boxes
Same.
That the first thing I thought as well
Jungle Love (Steve Miller or The Time), Rumbling In The Jungle (CCR), Everybody Wants Some (Van Halen) would of been all better.
Kinopio and Toaddete were also obvious characters to appear, I don't know if they had a character limit or what.
Funky .. zoomers .. no.
I just see this film as a tribute and love letter to the Super Mario franchise. It wasn’t the best film in the world, but it was enjoyable enough for me to smile while watching all of the characters go on this fun adventure.
So because a movie is a tribute anda love letter that means it should just be average?
@@systemofadown945 I don’t think this film is average. I’d give it an 8/10 since I still had fun watching it.
@Kevin R. kind of concerning since its a 4 in reality
@@systemofadown945 definitely a solid 4.
@@Alr1ghtyThen four on a very good day, this was barely a movie.
Thank godddd !!! Finally I found someone who speaks senses.
This movie had nothing to present. If it wasn't a movie about Mario, I would give them a 5/10. But they have ruined a great potential. They had the most famous and most beloved characters in the history of gaming and the least they could do was to make us entertained or laughed, but they didn't succeed any of them. I can't believe that i,a nintendo and Mario fan and animation lover, was so bored that I started working with my phone!!
Heartless and flat. I completely agree with you guys.
I actually fell asleep during the movie. I didn't like the jack black peaches peaches peaches peaches bit, it took me out of it as I just saw Jack Black. I honestly prefer the cartoon show version of bowser.
I'm 47 and I LOVED it. It's pure fun. My 4 year old was transfixed. I am definitely going to take my brothers to watch it in 4DX. How can you not laugh when his Grandpa missed the spaghetti??
My 7 year old LOVED it too. My wife and I were bored to tears - I honestly would have walked out if my son wasn't enjoying it so much. Beautiful movie, but the story and writing just didn't do it for me.
@@gerrylum What kind of writing did you need for a Super Mario Movie?
Took my 4 year old today. It's was meh I almost fell asleep but my kid digged it for awhile. Got antsy at the end tho
@@jonnyshanon2103 dude, something....anything. I wanted to love this
4DX is amazing. Definitely worth it for the Mario Kart scenes
Please don't feel bad for being honest Joe! That's why I've been watching you for years.
Idk recently Joes and Alex seem to be sniffing their own farts ha ha
While I don't 100% agree with their opinions, I respect their honesty.
Facts
@@HolyAlric Alex has always been a little high and mighty about himself. Joe is starting to convey that he sees things we 'plebs' don't because he is a 'critic.'
It feels like they look for problems most people wouldn't care about, only those that watch a trailer frame by frame.
That's what critics do though they look for problems.
Oh no 3 old boomers with no kids didn't like a kids movie😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
... Mario wasn't magically good at the end. He literally trained with peach. Then tested himself against Donkey Kong, then almost died but then figured his way out of it then almost died to Bowser but didn't give up. to later become the hero he is known for by learning all the way thru.... Did Joe watch the same movie?
Also peach also isn't a girl boss with no training. She explained she was raised there, she trained since she was a baby.... Come on guys.
They've bought into the idea that any competent female character is "girl boss Mary Sue wokism".
This channel used to be so much better at criticising.
People are disliking this video BUT ITS THE TRUTH thank you joe🫡
At least it's a perfect adaptation.
Who would imagine, the guys who still actively avoid playing Nintendo games don’t like the Mario movie
Tell nintendo to stop striking their videos
@@nightruler666 bro thinks this is still 2017
@@savy4266 Nintendo is still doing this though. Nintendo copyrighting and taking down videos is still relevant.
@@retrofan4963 I didn’t know angry joe posts modded Nintendo videos?
I will say I think Charlie Day as Luigi was great, and I hope they just make a standalone Luigi's mansion movie with him. Also I think people blew the Chris Pratt thing way out of proportion, and he was "fine" as Mario, wasn't anything wrong with it. Seth Rogan as DK was very meh though. Also the real life song choices actually made me groan out loud.
A Luigi's Mansion movie would be beyond perfect. That's something I wanted since before this movie's first trailer.
I don't really like Chris Pratt's public persona much, so I don't say this as a fan of his at all, but he was really good. He's a talented actor and he seems to always take his roles seriously, it was obvious he tried to bring something unique to this and I think it worked just fine.
@@heavydonkeykong5190 When the GameCube released I never expected Luigi's Mansion to be the absolute banger that it was, but it's easily in my top 5 all time Mario titles.
Seth rogan as DK just flat out sounded like Seth rogan down to the chuckle lmao
@@Swolidarity that's because he can't voice act
Honestly I really didnt want an overly funny long movie, I wanted a simple wholesome escape from everything and it hit the spot. Short and sweet
He gave D&D a 10/10 and Scream a 9/10 (or was it 8?). Their reviews are a joke.
Exactly why it makes the movie just average...
@@dereksbooksD&D was scored a 9 and it was WAY better than this shit at least
The only channel with the balls to say this. This movie succeeded because it was Mario. If this was a generic animation movie with Illumination's name on it alone people would've teared it to shreds. I hope the eventual second movie will be better and do better but I'm not expecting much. They made over a billion doing the bare minimum so that sets the stage. Would love to be wrong but that's usually how it goes unfortunately...
Stick to video games bruh. You guys are not movie critics 💀
Seems like from the comments section this movie was pretty awesome
Yes it was, don't listen to these guys.
Yes it was fun not anything spectacular to amazing as it risks nothing and has a paper thin plot but for what it is it's enjoyable. Overall it's a fine movie that will most definitely get a sequel.
@YOGI what mario game doesn't have a paper thin plot, this has to stop with people thinking this movie was supposed to be some rich deep plot and story.
@@cantala13 exactly the number of games that have anything more than a story you can count on two hands that isn't peach has been kidnapped go save her or some version of that.
I would say mario is the second worst Nintendo franchise to get a movie next to Kirby for the lack of plot
@YOGI I think you missed my point, I was stating the fact that no mario game has ever been focused on story, character development, or plot, the movie did a great job creating a narrative for why things took place despite the lack of story points to pull from the games, why would anybody expect the movie to be story rich when the games have never been, the movie was 10/10 in my book, my kids loved it and there was no woke bullshit and no LGBTQ bullshit shoved in my kids or my face.
I couldn’t disagree more.. Im 42 years old and I loved this movie. And you said Sonic and Sonic 2 were better? No way. I had to fast forward some of Sonic to even watch it..(the real actors parts were SO bad…) But this movie was funny and fun. I enjoyed it.❤❤
@Flash Columbus5023 why, cus i like a movie? 🤨
@@myko740 he goes around attacking everyone in the comment section saying positive things don’t worry about him. He claims people like their own comment.
@@Vahig7 lol 😂 hilarious. Well I didn’t like mine so, he’s wrong. 😜
Is AJ actually John Leguizamo? Sounds like he went in ready to hate. Not saying its a 10/10 but this review sounds like he watched a different movie we did. Entire theater was giggling and laughing for us all movie long.
So lets see... You go see a video game cartoon movie, catered towards children
and expect a Shakesperian play, really guys😑
What a lame defense. There are lot of rated G animated films that has great stories, developed characters, and clever writing. Heck, lot of them, I would consider to be masterpieces. So expecting the Mario film to be great as those animated films with the same demographic shouldn't be crazy to ask for. This is coming from myself who finds the Mario film decent, you're really underestimating how great animated film for all ages can be.
4:20 - 4:57 Did you even watch the movie? Or maybe you just have very lousy memory?
First off...Peach gets captured by Bowser TWICE in the movie...the first time when she agrees to marry him, the second time in Brooklyn.
Second..in the flashback of how Peach came to the Mushroom Kingdom, they show her training on the course...the scene is very brief, but it's all the movie needs to show for you to understand that she did have to train. She even mentions earlier in the movie to Mario about her training.
Third...Peach is not the hero of the film, and Mario does not "bumble" his way through the entire movie. Mario pretty much masters the training course after just a day or two of training. He defeats Donkey Kong in the arena, he kicks a bunch of Koopa Troopa butt on Rainbow Road, he saves Donkey Kong from drowning, he smashes his way through waves of enemies in the Mushroom Kingdom, he saves Luigi, he saves the entire Mushroom Kingdom from being obliterated by a Banzai Bill, and him and Luigi save Peach and Brooklyn from Bowser at the very end.
I swear, you guys didn't even watch the movie at all. I think you only watched the trailers, where some of the earlier ones gave you the impression that Mario was going to be a bumbling idiot the entire movie and Peach was going to be the hero.
agreed, i dont think the whole "girl boss dont need no man" was that bad here... i hate woke feminist nonsense, i absolutely call that shit out. I do think it was odd she called mario a nobody, in a mario movie and seemed better at obstacle courses than mario. But mario got PLENTY of moments to shine, even lugi got some action towards the end.
yes
I absolutely loved this movie.. made me feel like a little kid (in a good way)

I think the real passion is in the world design and music. 8/10.
This move is fanservice for Mario fans...it encapsulates a Mario adventure. To me it felt like an adaptation of the Nintendo Power mario comics in the 90s with more easter eggs
This have rule 34 now.
Don't ask why?😂
It's actualy a spit in the Face to Mario and all the fans for turning peach into an annoying girl boss Mary Sue and Mario into an incompetent idiot who has zero platforming skills.
Extremely annoying and boring to watch. 2/10

@@trashtalk2000 Wasn’t even annoying she lived in the mushroom kingdom all her life
The problem with this movie is that none of the celebrity casting with the exception of Jack Black with Bowser isn't justified in the slightest. It is something that really pisses me off about modern animation features, yes I know there are great voice actors in this movie like KMR but it's not enough to get me to even consider watching this.
Ok miss out then
@@Fankenstein Don’t be a sheep. He’s right about Hollywood not casting good voice actors and just hiring star power.

@@Fankenstein This isn't a question so it doesn't need a question mark.
@@Fankenstein I am not missing anything of importance.
I completely agree with all the criticisms. A gorgeous looking but soulless movie.
Agreed with the boys. Didn't enjoy this one at all. Left the cinema feeling annoyed.
Me too, to many character issues and the movie tried to make me laugh at mario.
Obviously this was an origin movie. Also take note that Shigeru Miyamoto was a producer on this film and knowing Nintendo, I’m pretty sure they kept a close eye with their IPs and had alot of say in the story. I believe Nintendo wanted to play it safe with this story so that it was familiar to both kids and us adults who grew up with Mario in the 80’s.
Exactly, part with Mario being clumsy and dorky at the beginning is done well, his getting use to the new world his in, and after he tries some of the powers he becomes better at it. Princes Peach is strong in this movie because she was rased in this world, and that is ok in games u could play her and use same powers as others.
SOME games she's playable. I'm with Joe though. Have her a damsel in THIS movie and be STRONG in the sequel.
That is what's wrong with Nintendo. Playing it safe. Sometime they go wild and that's what i like. The dual screen DS, the motion controller, rumble pak, and etc. It's all phenomenal.
The Switch is to keep it safe. Why? They cut back on many great apps and a boring theme screen (black and white).
@@Nick-up5wv me too! In super mario 3d and smash bros you can play as her and she kicks ass but with this being the origin story I would have preferred "princess peach" over "peach: I don't need no man, girl boss!" 😅
@@vheataylorsyorkies7215 Thanks for agreeing with me. I've gotten SO much flack for that comment in other comment sections. Peach is cool. MARIO; and Luigi for that matter, are simply the BEST and should be WAY above Peach.
Definitely a ‘reference’ movie in that if you know your mario/nintendo history its great to see it all but I wouldn’t blame anyone less so familiar with just calling it memberberries cuz thats what it is
I liked how the humor revolved around references to the video games. Like bananas making karts crash, the shrinking mushroom gag, Bowser crushing on Peach, etc. This was better than doing annoying pop culture references. Which is what Wreck it Ralph 2 did.
I’m 36 years old and for me it was the perfect movie to just sit there and watch it without my brain connected to my critic side.
Totally agree, same age, same nostalgic moments. It was pure fun.
2:20-2:25
YOU HEARD HIM!! THE SONIC MOVIES ARE BETTER!!!!!
Story wise at least?
@@liamphibia
Yep. Even more than that.
Rare disagreement on my end with Joe. I loved every last second of the movie, I don't understand what you didn't like? Voice acting was great, great music, great animation and personally found it fairly funny. Plot was weak to below average, but it's Mario what do you expect. A really strong 9/10 close to 10/10 for me. But I respect all opinions.
If you compare Mario Movie to Despicable Me, Big Hero 6, Toy Story, Puss n Boots, Mitchells Versus Machines, Lego Movie and do many other great animated movies, the Mario Bros movie is aggressively mediocre. It was a huge disappointment when you compare it to the competition. The animation was fantastic. Hats off to that team. All in all, the movie had shallow, empty fan service. It was built on nostalgia and Easter Eggs.
You have low standards
13:01 Alex’s reaction when Joe mentions the funniest joke of the movie(which wasn’t funny) 😂😂😂
Guess you don't play Mariokart huh. The joke is that in those games (well, the recent ones, 7 and 8) you can literally put any character in a stupid-looking kart and still win. Toad being fuckin tiny, riding something that would be best suited for someone like Bowser or even Wario was the fun part.
Not sure what movie y'all went to watch buy my sister and I loved this movie. It was so funny we kept pointing out shit to each other the entire time. 🤣
THATS why you enjoyed it. You are just pointing out references but a movie has to be more than references to be good. The writing and character moments are so straight forward and formulaic that even some children will be offended on how stupid the movie thinks you are.
Yeah that’s the problem…
@TheOneTrueBeard as long my sister and i had fun that's what matters to me.
@@pridefulgaming translation: "I like being manipulated"; you do you, but don't forget that some people are looking for more in art and you should respect that. To me this film ended up being a waste of time; not terrible, but quite boring, predictable and generic, just like most superhero and action films.
@@winnablepeach135 man why do you people have to be deep about it? Like what did you expect going to a Mario movie? When did any of the Mario games have any story of depth, serious characters or plot twists? This is a kids movie first. We, adults, are not the main audience and that's the point. Though I enjoyed it myself.
This is like going to a Marvel movie expecting anything other than cgi galore and funny jokes. Not everything has to be a 10/10 Oscar winning masterpiece.
No you guys are absolutely right. This movie is f@$$ing atrocious. I'd rather watch the Jon Leguizamo one again than this trash any day of the week
It's not a genuine review 🤣 pure hate
Went with my brother (we are both adults) and both loved it. It was what we had hoped and expected, nothing more, nothing less, and I thought the movie had a lot of memorable creative scenes and input.
Exactly. It did exactly what I expected it to do. Be a kids movie about Mario with Easter eggs for the adults
Nah your adult card has been revoked. You are a man baby
Yes. No one expected Mario movie to be a Citizen Kane or other master piece. It's a fucking video game character who's games' plots are paper thin. But the movie gave us all exactly what we should have expected and wore the Fandom on it's sleeve. And that's all I wanted.
I totally agree with them. It's a shit movie. Your enjoyment is contingent on how easily you are milked by nostalgia
The Super Mario Bros film was very shallow as it lacked any actual story or depth in it. It looked pretty but so did Minions. It's a 2/10 so hopefully Nintendo takes a lot more risks and adds more in the next one. I compare this film with the Michael Bay Transformers voice.
Alex explained it exactly how i felt.. i went with my two daughters and loved it... i had fun seeing it with them..
The legacy lives on if the kids love it.
@@herdsire90210 I love it when my favourite brands have a legacy
*sees Ultraman*
A man of culture I see.
Movie was fun, whole theater was cheering and laughing from adults and kids. Need to stop overthinking things and just relax.
Love how everyone enjoyed it but the boys didn't.
I’m honestly not surprised they didn’t like it and I respect them for it. I did enjoy it however.
I wish everyone (includes myself) was in the same mindset as you @KodaPlays29
If only the world would think like this and respect other people's opinions then we would live in a better place.
Is there a transgender in the movie ???
@@masterroshi3994 What does that have to do with anything?
They're giving their honest opinions & that's to be respected regardless of whether you agree with them or you don't. Everyone's opinion is going to be different.
This is why I love Angry Joe reviews, we see eye to eye 90% percent of the time, and Alex is always on point
@@beast_machine are you talking about him or yourself?
alex makes me so mad i picture him on a roller coaster just like -_- this man takes himself WAY to serious considering he's reviewing an animated kids movie for a youtube audience. the movie was ok i watched it with a girl and we laughed so 10 out of 10 anyone who expects anything more is crazy. go watch stalker instead not mario
The scenes with bowser were the best bits imo.
After finally seeing the movie I can fully say that I've never disagreed more on an opinion for a movie you had, hell half the complaints you had weren't even a problem for the movie xD Think this just ain't for you guys
@Maynards so blue the whole movie from start to finish is action and awesome mario-ness glory did we see the same movie?
@Maynards so blue fuck knows what goes on in you people’s minds. It was a fantastically fun film.
Well said 👏🏻
@@taylormoon9233 Yes, you two watched the same movie. I grew up with Mario as well and felt this movie was just okay, ultimately very forgettable.
This ^
Also what bothered me about this review is their angle of " we are fans too guys, not like the critics " but not only they end up complaining about the same stuff as the critics but clearly arent the fans they claim, they call a Luma " the flame character " for God's sake!! , i havent even played Mario Galaxy and could tell that was a Luma
Bowser gushing over peach is exactly how he’s supposed to be
Lmao 🤣 🤣 so long gay bowser! yea the dude who uses peach to get to mario is definitely gushing for her 😅
@@encephalon3563 u my sir need education
@@xXQSLegend123Xx you my sir are clueless
@@encephalon3563 Honestly what you said was weird af it's a kids movie creep
@@j.c3629 and that is why it sucks
Haha, they had such a different reaction from me that I feel like we saw different movies.
Do you realize this is aimed to five year olds and not to manchilds who love bitching right?
Me and my seven year old son just came back from the movie and it was awesome, even I had a great time, laughed a lot, and it was really special to share this passion with him.
Enough said.
Critic mind set I didn't like it therefore bad movie and me critic me right.
I actually liked the 1990s version as a kid growing up. Apparently the critics score is getting pounded. Critics are at 53 percent when it comes to overall reviews and Audience is around 96-98 percent in reviews when it comes to Rotten Tomatoes. 🤷🏼
It's not a good film but I still have a fond memory of it.
Guilty pleasure of mine.
Same here but it definitely didn't age well.
I saw it in theaters the weekend it came out.
It was disappointing because it makes no attempts (turns out intentionally) to be like the video games. But Street Fighter was significantly more disappointing.
I like both more now. They're both so bad they're good.
It's the fucking worst. I love it.
Only thing I didn't like was Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong
Not sure which movie you guys were watching but i thought it was great. Lots of laughs. It has also has a 96% audience score on RT.
Audience scores on RT are literally meaningless lol
@@bobross8585 Theres a good amount of people who think the opposite of you lol.
@@Xfacta12482 you mean hypocrites? Yeah I know, and I don't care lol. This movie was mid af. I find even remember one thing that made me laugh at all lolol
@@bobross8585 Hypocrites? No idea what you're on about
@@Xfacta12482 If you think that audience scores are anything but bots and biased garbage you're hilarious. Every review is either a 0/10 or a 10/10. That's how people like you look at everything. If it isn't PERFECT in YOUR eyes, then it's a 0/10. Hilarious. User reviews are worthless garbage.
I JUST saw this and while I don't think it's a 10/10, I had a smile throughout the whole movie. I loved the segments with Bowser romantically obsessed with peach which was kinda introduced in Odyssey
i never played odyssey but i knew that's exactly where it was from lol
I don't know what the AJ Crew is looking for.
Like The Last of Us 2 as a game, The Super Mario Bros. The Movie 2023 is a good movie but could have been better.
nah Even in that game I saw the marriage as a tool for him, Marry the ruler to officially become the ruler kind of thing. Sure he wants to have a real wedding she will enjoy because he thinks if he does that she will agree to marry him.
except that she frees herself and kicks Bowsers and his whole armys ass. Mary Sue peach singlehandedly ruins the whole Movie. 1/10
I can do you one better Jank Floyd, Paper Mario portrayed Bowser as a love struck dork mixed with brutal tyrant.
from the looks of it, seems like the fans like it but the critics don't. seeing it tomorrow!
for me that's usually a good sign. watching it next weeknd
It is obvious that this movie is an origin movie setting up the world as we know playing it, you guys honestly can't enjoy anything can you.
What do you expect of people with short attention span and making up false narratives? Lol. Joe saying Peach has no flaws and a Mary Sue, without watching her flashback is someone of short attention span and willfull ignorant.
They tried to bank on nostalgia and I feel they got it good. It was a corporate film just for cash..but I as a 32 y/o enjoyed the film and my kids enjoying it so that to me is worth the time.
Honestly, the 90's Super Mario Bros. Movie has always been a guilty pleasure for me. It blew my mind when I saw it as a kid, and I still find it entertaining as an adult. It definitely falls into the category of "it's so bad it's good".
I feel exactly the same. And the Roxette song in credits 😊
No, it really really doesn't. Everyone from our generation that overrates garbage says this. Like they were the only ones to understand it isn't shlock junk and Bob Hoskins himself is wrong for getting drunk on set every day to forget this horrible movie was made. You'll always end up with these myopic Doug Walkers who are like "its actually awesome because I like it and I'm great!" Sure...
@@Makeshift_Mulder I'm not saying the movie is great, it's pretty awful, that's why I'm saying it's a guilty pleasure for me because I've always enjoyed watching it. It's one of those movies where when a friend says they haven't seen it I make them sit down and watch it with me and we have a good time making fun of it.
I actually like the movie. So bad it's good... maybe but I actually like the comedy in it. I laugh every time lol
@@pikapikapitiful this movie would be looked at completely differently if it wasn't called Super Mario Bros. The Movie
It's like a really good cheese pizza.....but with no toppings
To be honest id rather re watch 93, than to watch this shit movie again its just an hour and a half disappointment 😢
We know Alex and AJ have issues with Chris Pratt. So take the review with a grain of salt.
What?
It's on its way to becoming the best box office for an animation ever. They tried to please everyone and did a pretty good job.
They did an alright job. Another 45 minutes was probably needed
They did a great job and more time was unnecessary and could have potentially bloated scenes that didn’t need to be longer
What the hell? The movie was terrible...
It was pretty awesome.
@@maximusjoseppi5904 No it wasn't, it's fine if you didn't like it but it was the very definition of what makes mario mario and if you don't like marion, again that's fine
The movie was OK, the nostalgia factor was there, but it didn’t have much substance. I’ve heard the argument that Mario games haven’t had a good story, but it’s different when it’s a video game because the gameplay makes up for the lack of a story, but when you’re watching a movie and you’re not playing it, the story starts to matter more. I didn’t expect a intricate story, but some meat would have been great to flesh out the world. Overall solid, potential to be amazing with the next one.
Also, if I hear that I need a hero song in one more movie SMH
Well, unless it's the Mario RPG & Paper Mario level of story, soo...
The movie is targeted to Mario fans, and if you aren’t a Mario fan, you aren’t gonna enjoy it as much. I saw a reference every 5 seconds. Pure fan service, and that’s all we wanted it to be.
@@ArkSucksAtGames I'm not a Mario fan and I really liked it
"Also, if I hear that I need a hero song in one more movie SMH" The insertion of 80's pop hits is something Illumination does in almost every movie they make. I only say "almost" because there's a few I haven't sat through, but it's a known calling-card of theirs. I want this movie to do well because I don't want Nintendo to retreat into their shell for another 30 years, but I don't want Nintendo to take that success and sign a larger deal with Illumination because I don't think they should handle a Legend of Zelda, or Metroid, project.
Thank you. Not enough people are thinking like this. I theoretical want everybody to enjoy every movie they ever watched but the reality is filmmakers need to factor in the central part has always been story. Easter eggs and awe inspiring visuals are only a part.
Congratulations, angry Joe. You're an official critic now 🎉
The fans love it, and the critics hate it.
That's because Mario Movie had many writing, storytelling and execution problems. It was a very weak movie. The animation quality was great, but everything else was mediocre.
Yes they really do need to stop trying so hard to be critics this is just me but most of their views are kinda just wacky.
@@DirtyDooney22 Princess Peach was a Warrior Princess. She was an incredibly skilled bad ass... and the hero of the movie. Mario was a bumbling idiot. There was no great interaction, dialogue or battles between Mario and Browser. And the use of power-ups was lame. Really, they did nothing with the fire flower? The creators didn't even use the statue defence ability of the Tanooki suit? Bowser wasn't a good villain or antagonist. He was very cringey. There was not believable backstory as to why or how Bowser fell in love with Princess Peach. And the song lyrics were terrible. Lol
The guys hated the movie the moment chris pratt was casted
I generally agree with your reviews. However this time I think the movie was great, I was entertained throughout the whole movie and felt like a child again while looking out for all those references. In the end I think in this type of movies what matters is that you had a good time, without really caring if the script is simple or silly. Specially in these times where all content have to convey an ideologized political message or nasty agendas. This movie feels like a breath of fresh air that just limit to give fans what they want, and is amazing at it.
Sonic has no political agenda and people praise it. It's a childish, blue, hairball hero who needs a parental guidance.
@@tr1bes yes and Sonic is another good example of a movie respecting the franchise where it comes from. Unfortunately, thats not the trend in mainstream media if you look at the trash that Disney, Netflix, Warner , Amazon , etc have been giving fans of cherished IPs just for the sake of pushing agendas.
I 100% agree with you brother it feels so nice watch a movie and not to be worry about the whole agenda going on now days.
What "agenda"?
The story was okay but it's literally a Mario Bros movie i don't know what kind of storytelling these critics want 😂 they want Scorsese writing or something. In my humble opinion they did great the animation was great and the callbacks to the games were great to watch.
I also found they DID NOT CREDIT GRANT KIRKHOPE, for the DKRAP and that was a big mistake.
I’m confused “didn’t hear kids laugh” our theater was laughing all movie
Kids laugh at anything
This movie felt like a long commercial for all the Super Mario Bros. games
Joe gonna get mad hate for this review, never stop being authentic ❗️
As he should. This is probably the worst review/take they've ever put out.
@@skyhunter2816that’s your opinion
@@skyhunter2816 worst one was joker review.
@@skyhunter2816 cry about it.
@@skyhunter2816 you’re just mad because they gave it a 5 rating.
Peach grew up in the mushroom kingdom so that's why she was so skilled and I think donkey kong and mario constantly fighting is the writers paying homage to DK/Jumpman days.
They literally had a jump man arcade in Brooklyn too
Did the mushroom kingdom have a dojo with a karate master? Cause they threw away her whole character and replaced it with the generic strong and brave female lead that could do no wrong. Honestly tired of these jack of all trades characters, people wanted princess peach not wonder woman.
@@RanivusCh the Punch-Out pizzeria was pretty neat too.
@@ron8162 Dude, what character? Peach had no character in the games. She's the damsel you save at the end of the game and rewards you with a kiss. In fact, it's a breath of fresh air seeing her do something in an adventure for once.
@Ron the original princess peach was a weak bi*** this one is way better
I admit, the story isn't the best, I half expected Peach to accept help from anyone who asked to join her on her journey to stop bowser... Even if bowser himself asked...
I did enjoy the film overall tho, kind of a switch your mind off type of film. The only times that kind of made me think we're the Easter eggs and when a moment was really dumb that my mind couldn't ignore it, like the fact that Peach just accepted help from Toad instantly almost without thinking about it.
I would've liked to have seen a bit more of Toad and Mario becoming friends before they reached the Mushroom Kingdom so that Mario could've convinced Peach that Toad would actually help on their journey
The rainbow road part sounds awesome the way he explained it
It was. Lots of action. Great section of the film
Sonic was not written better. There's a whole plot line in sonic 2 about a woman marrying an fbi agent or something. Also the first movie has the fastest creature alive going on a road trip in a pickup truck It's story is about as deep as mortal kombat annihilation
But it wasn't soulless or joyless like this mario movie
but still feel like oscar level compared to non existent plot of mario movie
Sonic WAS written better because the characters in Sonic do have some actual depth to them. It's why Sonic has done well as a multimedia franchise in comparison to a traditional straight up video game franchise. The Mario characters are straight up simple, fun and colorful and they played that up in this movie and it works. The modern movies play up to the strengths of the each character and that's what I think attracts people to these movies in general. They are something different in comparison to all the other schlock being put out there. I appreciate Joe's opinion but I thoroughly enjoyed the movie as I did Sonic 1/2.
Yea. I found the Mario movie far superior to Sonic. Sonics not bad, but it had a lot more boring or cringe inducing parts.
Sonic had better action scenes compared to this movie
I enjoyed the movie and had a fun time! I will say with Bowser it felt more like Bowser was doing an impression of Jack Black the entire movie instead of the Jack playing Bowser
