I feel like Disney is behind the backlash for this movie because they see Nintendo as a threat. Nice video man 👍🏻
that wouldn’t surprise me
Or...hear me out, the movie isn't paced well, the story is generic, and not everyone likes Mario.
@Spence maybe it's targeted at mario fans as those are the people who would like it

Why critics hate it :
1. It's not Disney movie
2. Basically the sources material is not from Hollywood royal ( Mario is original Nintendo)
3. AlMost all recent Disney animation movies struggle and box office bomb, so Hollywood can't allowed other animation movies better than Disney so critics give Mario bad reviews
4. It's not Disney movie
5. Hollywood critics hate gamers
6. It's not Disney movie
7. IT'S NOT DISNEY MOVIE

Mario doesn't have to be perfect to be enjoyed by all ages. I'll take Mario anytime over Disney's Marvel and Star Wars projects.
So admittedly it ISN'T, when you are not tone-policing. Toxic fans jsut can't hadnle that they like something that's not very good. This is simply incapability of standing for what you LIKE instead of insisting everything you like is GOOD, meaning that your values are really on what's popular, and defining being GOOD as being POPULAR.
This kills the art. And Mozart, this is ACTUALLY why Mozart died in poverty. If you insist these critics are BROADLY wrong and Mario Movie is the tentpole for GOOD, you ARE insisting that same goes for Mozart and he was actually the opposite. YOU are "the critic" calling Mozart a bad musician because YOU don't find him "popular", as proven by the fact populsim only propped him up when there was public domain money to be made by stealing his content.
This is why you "fans" are hypocrites, you're projecting Disney's malfeasance when it is the CROWD that is ACTUALLLy doing such malfeasance.
The real reason is simple, critics acknowledge this is just Lorax again. And I can tell because I like Lorax, partly for finding its flaws interesting. That's what happens with ART because art is risky. And that's what happens with corporate mass production, if you like corporate mass production, like how it imitates the chaos in natural formations such as weird chemical deposits in random bright colors.

Bad CGI? I could literarily feel Mario's mustache tickling me! Great movie! My wife (36, NES gamer), my children (6 and 10, both raised with a Nintendo Switch), and I (38, NES and GameBoy owner) had a blast in the theatre!

Exactly. I watched Super Mario Bros. Super Show when I was 3 years old, and sang along to the first half of the Super Show intro in the theaters, and started playing Mario games at 7 years old. Every Mario game I didn't play when I was 7-9, (a select few) I watched the gameplays of on CZcams. This movie brang bac so many memories, and I rate it 11/10.
Critics trying to bully and shame audiences away from entertaining, family friendly movies become increasingly erratic, fueling speculation about their understanding of the art, their impartiality and in some cases, their grasp on reality. You could make a good movie out of a story like this.
The fans also bully the critics a lot tbh
Like I get that condescending uptight critics are annoying but it’s not some fans even let people not enjoy the movie the same way they criticize the ones that don’t let people enjoy it. Like, I’m not some uptight elitist pseudo-intellectual moron for valuing having the scenario.
If they had mario and Luigi kiss they’d given it a 99% for diversity and alphabet alone.. sickening how they think.
@@illapuproductions why do you have to descend into dumb middle school homophobia you’re really not giving the fans a good image
@@marin9412 Almost all critics and the people who defend them think the audience is dumb.
@@marin9412 The critics began it. People used to trust them to point them toward movies that would entertain, but they started pushing toward political agenda pushing movies while talking down on movies that would just entertain.
When people realized this, started saying "we don't like these movies," those same critics started calling the audience racists and/or sexists, saying they were bad people if they didn't agree with the critics.
It was the critics that drew the line in the sand and declared the audience and the critics as enemies. And they deserve everything they get from that audience as a result.
I've never understood why critics HATE when movies are entertaining and cater to the fans. If I remember correctly, the critics hated Godzilla: King of the Monsters because it was entertaining and catered to fans, and that was from their own words.
Ugh that should be the point of every movie that's just dumb but what can I say any fancy pants who eats caviar I cannot take anything they say seriously.
I think I remember critics giving the first Godzilla decent reviews while fans hated it for taking the cameras off the kaiju all the time.
Then for KotM fans were like "HELL YEAH THESE ARE THE MONSTER FIGHTS I PAID TO SEE" and critics were all "noooo they boiled the boring human drama down to its base components to give Godzilla actual screentime :("
also for sonic 2 aswell
@@conspiracypanda1200 I remember that.
"Godzilla KOM focuses too much on the monsters and not enough on the human characters!"
Meanwhile the perfect Godzilla movie would be a three minute introduction followed by 100 minutes of Kaiju beating the shit out of each other
@@MurasakiTsukimaru What killed KOM for me was the constant environment crap being forced into blockbusters around that time. Being a military brat, my family also caught the usual armed forces problems, which dragged it down even more. Still fun, just a whole lot of skipping over BS.
The critics hate this movie because it didn't include a "deeper meaning" (aka woke nonsense) and was just a fun movie for kids AND those who grew up playing different generations of the games (including myself and i loved the movie). This movie is a love letter to fans and gave fans what they wanted to see.
Facts. They can’t find anything to cancel about the movie so therefor it’s just mid 😂😂
And by "deeper meaning" you probably mean the usual political agenda these dumbasses usually push I guess, because that's how I see it.
Yeah I love the music, references. Reminds me of the good memories of playing Mario.
The Kongs really spoke my language when it comes to automotive transport and kart building.

This movie is the perfect example of an 8/10 for me, sure there's room for improvement but overall it's an enjoyable experience! I probably wouldn't pay to see it again but if someone else puts it on I'd be happy to watch with them

Chef Gordon Ramsey said to a contestant on Master Chef once, “A dish can be simple. It just needs to be done right.” For me, that is this movie. A movie like PIXAR’s “Soul” is deep. Like a fine dining dish with many interlocking flavors that make up a complex flavor profile. The Mario Bros movie is your grandmas lasagna. Would it win a culinary competition, probably not (maybe your grandmas would? I dunno.) But it tastes GREAT. This movie doesn’t need a huge plot. It doesn’t need a huge underlying message. Just good fun while honoring fans and the source material.
I absolutely loved this movie and can’t wait to see it again! 🎉❤
yep people need to understand that simple is now really bad.
Well done with your analogy! 😎
The underlying message is never give up...
The breath of fresh air you experienced here is the lack of progressive propaganda being driven down your throat.
it kinda remind me of the menu
Brother, Granny's cooking will always be top of the list for any respectable human.
I don't think people are getting tired of superhero movies. I think they're tired of subpar superhero movies, which often happens when you leave the source material behind. The Super Mario Bros. Movie went all-in on their source material, which is why it's making enough money to make Wario blush with greedy happiness.
I don’t want something that makes me thing, I watch movies to avoid that. I just want to be entertained.
It's the laziness and formulaic way superhero movies have been going. Seriously the whole quip thing isn't a meme, EVERY superhero movie has tried to copy Marvel and even the MCU is basically just copying their own style trying to recapture the magic of Phases 1 and 2 but it's gone and they need to realize this
I wish it made Sunshine references, since that is my favorite Mario Game.
No, I don’t get the impression either that people are willing to grow up and move on from the totems of their childhood. Stagnation is sad.
My mom is not much of a big fan of animation anymore, but when she watched this movie, she was having a BLAST! I tell you.
This proves more, on how these critics are straight up idiots, and just don’t want anyone to have fun
Critics are fat people who can't find a woman
My mom had no idea who Mario was, or who Peach was.
She freaking loved the movie, she didn’t need Shakespeare, she was looking for a good time and had a great one.
Yes, your majesty, anyone with a different opinion from yours is an idiot and anti-fun. You were obviously annointed by God as the sole arbiter of objective quality. We bask in your radiant splendor, and by "radiant splendor" I totally don't mean "ego." 🙄
My parents are not the type of people who like video games. Even so, when they watched it, they love the way the characters are portrayed especially I brought up what they were like in the games.
My dad also downloaded "Peaches" and we both joke that Bowser should have married Peach💀
What do these critics expect? A deconstructio of marios character like they do with luke skywalker in disney star wars. A movie about bowsers imperialism. An anti war movie about the futility of war?
They expected Mario to be a bumbling fool and peach to be the main focus and hero. That was the original screenplay until Nintendo saw it and said Mario must be thr Mario focus and hero or els the whole production is getting shut down
@@sond.lollipop8919 Source?
@@Excelsior1937 the original screenplay pitched by illumination was leaked and it has peach as the main focus and hero of th story with Mario and Luigi tagging along with her and she goes around to rally the kingdoms against bowser. Mario and Luigi would of pretty much been in roads role in the movie. Shigeru Miyamoto the creator of Mario and Shuntaro Furukawa the president of Nintendo were shown it and they were furious and immediately told the writers and producers that Mario MUST be the main focus and hero of the story or the entire production is being shut down
A movie about Bowser imperialism seems quite fun, actually
@@sond.lollipop8919
Nice. Nintendo stood their ground.
That's why critics are only good at one thing, professional shit talking, or just plain talking out of their backsides, I been a CGI artist for a living for 2 decades almost and the CGI in the new Mario movie is far from Second rate.
I strongly object about the "professional shit talking". There's nothing "professional" about their critique. Just sh!t talking, coming from their sh!t taste, poop producing minds. Let's leave it at that.
You da man
Much respect to you and your art. I knew Illumination was the right choice, people were stressing out that they’d just get another minion movie with Mario music on top but the animation that studio is putting out is next level. A polished turd still shines.
@@euthymialy Hey, this movie is great.
@@euthymialyConsidering Illumination's previously best known work (the Despicable Me/Minions franchise) is known for not taking itself too seriously (just like the Super Mario Games), they are the best choice in Hollywood for Miyamoto-san and the Nintendo crew to partner with for the Super Mario films!
It’s funny to think that the Critics and audience ratings are reversed for “Cuties”, tells you all you need to know about these “professionals”.
Probably why they hated this movie. They had to call off the Cuties watch party to see Mario.
To be fair, the Cuties outrage was way overblown. More moral panics than ever before. You guys are going nuts.
@@itheuserfirst3186 "was way overblown" do you support pedos?, that movie is a literal pedo movie, so nothing was overblown like you think it is, it was rightfully reacted the proper way, because its nothing but a grooming long video, go get a life and stop supporting cuties, i cant believe you would think people are overblwing things over something that is clearly wrong
@@itheuserfirst3186 PEDO ALERT! PEDO ALERT!
@@itheuserfirst3186 Yes I've heard all the arguments. "The movie is a commentary about CP being bad"
Which is a good message and all... But you still had actual children dress provocatively and twerk on screen.
When the movie ended there were people clapping hands in the theater watching it. I think I'll enjoy it a lot as a kid. The story is simple but it's great for kids who are watching
The Super Mario Bros. Movie was incredibly faithful to the source material, as it certainly takes inspiration from the amazing visuals, stunning music, fast-paced high-action gameplay, fantastical worlds and environments, and just plain fun. Critics will most often dunk on the story of these sorts of films but, as we've seen with the games, a good piece of Mario media doesn't entirely rely on the story to succeed (since most games in the mainline series, which the movie is named after, basically involve Mario saving Peach from Bowser for the nth time).
The movie is pretty good.
@@scottchaison1001 I know, right?! It's amazing!
@@ZTimeGamingYT Exactly!
What I really appreciated were all the clever lines written into the script that felt like winks to longtime platform players. Mario struggling with it and asking Peach if she got it right away, with her replying “well yeah of course, but I grew up here”. Reminds me of conversations I’ve had with friends who are blown away by my mediocre mario skills in a new game when I’ve literally been playing these games my whole life! There were others but that one really stood out to me.
@@euthymialyyeah they pretty good lines in the Movie
i don't usually like the "it's for children" argument bc, as we saw with puss in boots earlier this year, something targetted at children doesn't need to have a basic ass plot.
however i do understand that this movies target audience is obviously going to scew lower and that combined with mario games usually not having a deep story to begin with i think it is completely reasonable for the movie to focus on fun setpieces instead
Movies don't have to be complex all the time either, there's nothing wrong with a movie having a simple plot.

Yes and we all have opinions on it films are subjective their is no bad or good unles it proves to disappoint you
Movie critics clearly don't know a thing about video games at all. As a Nintendo fan myself, Illumination has done an excellent job making the movie, I kept on rewatching the movie because it's that good in my opinion.
It's enjoyed by all kids, families, and fans alike!
I'm betting that the box office sales will reach even higher than it has before.
:)
Yup! If you played the games at some point growing up, you will expect something different from what the critics want (you get my drift)! And as someone who grew up with it as well (Super Mario Kart RULES), it hits all the right notes! 😂😂😂
The Super Mario movie is the most I guess actually PROUD to be A MARIO MOVIE
Even decent video game movies like Detective Pikachu and the Sonic movies have the problem of still being somewhat ashamed that they are video game adaptations and try to change themselves
Mario is the first mainstream one that straight up isn't it REVELS in being pure unadulterated Mario for fans of Mario
THIS! The movie hit all the right notes (if you ever played any Mario games over the years, you will understand exactly what I mean by that)! 😂😂😂
One of my biggest takeaways is that they resisted the urge to explain the world. They could have spent time explaining why blocks float, why power ups exist, etc but they chose to let us just go with it like we have been for almost 40 years now.

The Mario Movie was probably my favorite movie to watch especially as a long time Mario fan
Same, I absolutely loved it!
Everybody out here saying this movie is for kids when my 28 year old self and 6 of my 20/30 something year old siblings all went to watch the movie and couldn’t stop talking about it on and off for a couple hours after lol I watched it twice. I can’t get enough of this love letter masterpiece!
In my 40's and seen it twice. My kids only once, LOL!
Im a longtime Mario fan and found the movie pretty mid. Its just a bunch of mindless fanservice put together in a "story"line (and *a lot* of forced jokes). Great for kids tho.
As another Italian i can confidently say that its not an offensive movie. To be honest i liked the accent Chris Pratt and Charlie Day made.
8.5/10 movie. rly liked it.
People can hate all they want, but they can't deny that this was a great family movie! It was great seeing Mario and Luigi's family dynamic, how the toads raised Peach as their own, and even seeing Cranky Kong's parenting 🤣 When I was in the movie theater I saw families and friends wearing super mario t shirts and one dude with a bowser hat 😂 Mario is nostalgic and timeless classic game. Sometimes movies don't always have to have a deep meaning, they can just be fun! 😁
Exactly!
It's so satisfying seeing the corporate media be a speaker piece for the establishment. And with that being said, they are PANICKING at the notion of "Every film doesn't need to have an agenda", and Mario proves it.
As a fellow sicilian with angel hair making up the very strands of my DNA, I loved this movie and how they showed Brooklyn and Mario's family.
While Sonic 2 is still my favorite vidya movie, this one is still incredible and deserves all it's accolades.
Dipshit no one fucking cares if a movie doesn’t have an agenda. You fuckers sure seem to when it does. You idiots think minorities existing is an agenda. Hope you fuckers cope and seethe knowing the next spider-verse movie has a blm pin and a trans pride flag in it. Grow the absolute fuck up and accept that it’s not the 50s anymore.
You think there was no agenda pushed by Mario?
How does 'brotherly love' and 'Dont force your affections on women who dont want it' sound?
@@Damianweibler It sounds like things normal people do, and those themes are in the games already. What are you trying to prove?
@@Damianweibler exactly. Every fucking movie has an agenda or some sort of message. These bozos just hate seeing people who are different then them have representation. I swear. And you still had people saying there was a feminist agenda with peach

Considering Disney is still sore over the fact Mario is more recognizable than Mickey, and Disney is trying this whole woke angle, you can smell the dirty Disney bribe money from these woke fools trying to obliterate Mario's credibility, only for it to backfire epically.
I need to see this movie. Seriously. IT LOOKS SO FUCKING GOOD!
It was good! I watched and I tell everyone to check it out. It's a great time. Far better than I expected and I think it punches of above its weight class. It's still a kids movie but my goodness it was stellar
There's a strong female character and crossdressing in the Mario movie...
Just saying lol
Gonna wait till it's available to stream :)
@@darkmetal2412 Well, despite being the damsel in distress usually, I would say Peach is still a strong female character anyway.
And as for the crossdressing, super star saga had that scene where Luigi had to dress up as Peach. Just saying.

Nice video. Disney is getting killed right now at the box office. The Gays and Lesbians are not Disney's issue, it's the stories' settings and plot as the issue. Which is why Bad Guys, Puss in Boots: Last Wish, and Super Mario surpassed Disney. And I wouldn't be surprised if the review trollers are people who want Disney to have permanent control over the box office.
Well if the gays and lesbians aren’t the issue than you fuckers better not be calling the next spider verse movie shit just Bc it has a trans pride flag in it. Better fucking own up to that statement
Looking at this movie through a financial view, I completely understand why Mario and Luigi are separated. Illumination is testing how audiences react to Luigi carrying scenes on his own.
It's all in the psychology. February 2022 had Charlie Day tell everyone that his son loves playing Luigi's Mansion and he's interested in adapting it. Come March 2023 and Day not only is in favour of a Luigi movie but Chris Pratt talks about an NCU and specifically mentions Luigi's Mansion. Add all the tweets, posts, articles and videos in favour of a Luigi movie and there you go.
Mario and Luigi spending half the movie apart has unanimously been accepted as a bad move. But Meledandri is looking at this complaint and quoting the Hulk: "I see this as an absolute win".
Nintendo and Illumination are left with no doubt that people want Mario and Luigi to go on an actual adventure together in the inevitable sequel. They also want Luigi to have his own movie.
Mario and Luigi being separated isn't a bad move.
@@scottchaison1001 Yes it is.
@@dannypalin9583 Depends on what the goals with the story are. If they were trying to get us invested in Mario and Luigi’s sibling relationship, not a good move, but I’d argue that the real focus was between Mario and Peach, in which case Luigi’s abduction brings them together well.
@@dannypalin9583 No, it isn't, but people, as always, loves to exaggerate.
@@Excelsior1937 Wrong, what was seen of the Mario and Luigi sibling relationship was more than enough to get people invested, but like I said, people like to exaggerate and complain about stupid things.
I just finished watching this movie not even more than an hour ago, and I absolutely loved it. From the sound effects, to the characters, and the themes! Don't even get me started about the themes! They were perfect in everyway. Timing, volume, it was on point to the second, every single time. My only real gripe with it, was Bowser singing. Jack Black is a good singer, but the song is just a bit cringy. The wedding plot was hilarious, don't get me wrong, but a songwriter, Bowser is not, and yet, it makes the movie all the better. A movie for serious adults? Hell no. A movie for fans and children? You will never find a better movie that is a game adaptation. And that is exactly what the movie was for. It doesn't care about critics. It was for the fans, and it went above and beyond expectations. Well done Nintendo, well freaking done.
Bowser singing was gold.
@@scottchaison1001 Yeah, I know, his singing was great, but you can be a great singer, and still sing a terrible song. Maybe it was just me, but I just didn't like 'peaches' at all. The lyrics that is.
@@bronzeinkwell2590Maybe Jack Black should have incorporated a bit more of the Tenacious D zaniness to the songs he wrote for the film!

It wasn’t the best animation movie but it was an awesome movie. Some kid in the future will say that this is his or her favorite movie.
It may not be the best (which is nothing wrong with it), but it's a great movie.
Not everything is made with winning an Oscar in mind! 😂😂😂
Great video as always! You hit it on the nose it is a kids movie made for kids but it definitely did great for the fan service for the people that grew up playing Mario on the 64, kart and smash. I personally enjoyed the movie very much!
One thing I can't help but notice when it comes to movies is over the years, a certain movie genre trends for about a decade, then they move to the next.
1930s was all about exploration and adventure.
1940s was all about Patriotism and Heroes saving the day, (Because of WW2)
1950s was about westerns and romance stories, (People were tired of all the fighting, so they tried something more classic)
1960s was the era of Space Adventure, (Landing on the moon peeked people's curiosity.)
1970s & 1980s was the era of Swords and Sorcery, Dark Sci-Fi and Slasher movies. (Trying Darker themes compared to past projects.)
1990s was the era of action movies and parodies.
2000s and 2010s Superheroes and other movie comic adaptations
and now the 2020s Possibly a new era of Game Movies. (Starting with Sonic, then the Nintendo Cinematic Universe.)
I wonder what will trend next.
Brawl has some great music, if I remember correctly that is the trophy viewing music. I heavily enjoyed the Mario animated film as a fan. Seeing it a second time with the rose glasses off, it is a solid family film. Nothing amazing or ground breaking but a great film. It has it's issues, however it is breath of fresh air from all the other trash that is out there.
It doesn't have many issues, really.
I’m not a fan of Nintendo, not because I hate them, because their games aren’t really my style. However, after seeing the Super Mario Movie, I was blown away. It actually makes me want to get into the Nintendo fandom.
We needed a good movie that didn’t have any Feminism, woke, or transgender nonsense. It had everything a movie should need. A good plot, callbacks to the golden age of Mario, a good moral, and funny moments.
It was an enjoyable movie, and I 100% recommend to those who haven’t seen it, go see it. Don’t listen to the haters, they’re just mad because it didn’t meet their “expectations”.
Yeah, and it's a good thing Nintendo's new model for video game movie adaptation productions is working very well after learning from the 1993 movie production and from current trends! Really love the Easter eggs and references for various aspects from not only the games but also various TV series (e.g. Super Mario Bros Super Show), comics (e.g. Super Mario Adventures), etc.
I don't think people are tired of Superhero movies, I think people are tired of bad superhero movies. We're getting a lot of Woke stuff and messages in Superhero movies. And always pointing fingers at people who didn't like the movie or show.
How can you NOT be tired of superhero movies? Unless you enjoy 10 of them slammed in your throat every year. Worst part is, I am not even kidding. Last year we had 11 of them, the year before 10, 15 in 2020 .. More power to you if that does not fatigue you in any way, and you can still "enjoy them", but I sure cannot.
I'm tired of overly serious and boring super hero movies. I prefer DC animated movies way more than the live action ones.
@@XWierdThingsHappenX Animated hero movies or shows are still serious, sometimes more than live action ones it just depends on the plot, like in Justice League Doom. Not everything is going to be on the funny side like with One Punch Man or Slice of Life with My Hero Academia or A Certain Scientific Railgun. You need serious moments to tell a good story. Like Season 2 of Railgun that focus on The Level Six shift and how Accelerator was killing clones one by one to get to the Level Six. Unfortunately, Wokeness have taken over live action movies, so they try to push some stupid message and then say that if you don't like it, don't watch it. Then complain that the show or film fails. Like Woke people would say something like Catwoman was amazing film and everyone that didn't like it must hate woman. Hero movies just need a break, and it seems like that is happening. Marvel is finally slowing down, and trying to work on damage control of what happened to their shows and movies. But it might be too late for that.
@@deltoralk the newer dc animated movies aren't as serious. Along with the older movies. But I do prefer the animated stuff because they are not boring like the live action ones. I think the animated ones are more true to character. So far I'm really loving the tommorowverse movies.
there also not super heroes anymore. they don't help with any street level crimes anymore and are causing half of the destruction the city sustains to stop the villain. We've gone too far away from their original purposes that the heroes no longer protect anyone.
3:45 As an Italian myself,I can confirm.
It wasn't offensive to us,just a lil' stereotype of 'em eating spaghetti. But it was used to make sure that the viewer knew at 100% that they were Italians that live at Brooklyn,so that's fine.
Other than that? I didn't feel offended at all.
Ah thanks.
2:19
That meme reaction after the title being read was just perfect 😂
Everything in my head is perfectly exemplified in this video. Hope Nintendo becomes the next early MCU for the following decades.
Without going in a downward spiral like the Marvel movies. And ending on a high note for a long time. Hopefully Disney doesn't own Hollywood & Nintendo by then.
2:27- He looks exactly how I expected him to.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Nintendo movie should of had two endings:
1st one: a teaser for Zelda.
2nd one:
*mario and Luigi casually chilling at home
*toad knocks
Mario: Come in.
Toad: Ohhh mario this envelope came for you and Luigi.
Mario: For the both of us?
Toad: Yes peach got one, Donkey Kong received one and even bowser.
Luigi: open it mario let’s see what’s inside.
*mario opens the envelope
Mario: Hmmmmm nothings written except it has a drawing of a colorful ball with what it looks like a cross?
*camera points to the invitation
*cue Smash theme song.
*the audience go wild and the ending breaks the internet.
Don't say stupid things.
YOSHI!
Nah too early for smash Zelda tho coulda worked
"even the CGI is bad". Someone needs to be tossed out the door.
What did they expect? 8K super graphics that presents a ultra real look?
Also... "offensive"? Why because the Minons dont appear in it over all the place?
2:57 I still don’t understand why HOP is considered a movie from Illumination if it’s live action 🤔
Also, the critics didn’t forget, they’re just F’d up!
This is just a fun movie to vibe to (especially as a big Mario fan), critics are taking it WAY to seriously.
Also love the Persona 5 music
Ngl I stopped trusting critics a long time ago.
I've watched this movie recently in Japan and I wanted to say how surprised I am to see the tickets for the original dub booked more than the Japanese dub. It shows how much people wanted to see the movie based on the chosen voice actor. Also, I've definitely heard a lot of laughs throughout some of the scenes. Shows how much people enjoyed the movie. Whether it'd be with family, friends, couples, etc., that happiness truly was expressed by everyone in the theater.
I laughed pretty hard with the Dr. Evil clip 😂 Perfect usage and timing
1 billion dollars!
I can't wait for this movie to go to streaming services so I can watch it whenever I want
Critics hate it because it's not pushing that agenda. There is a very good video by Moon that talks about the downfall of rotten tomatoes although I'm going to be honest I thought rotten tomatoes sucked already before whatever year it was he mentioned that the critics they looked that were changed. But still yeah a lot of critics nowadays are looking for there to be LGBTQ or feminism representation as opposed to looking for a quality film. It's not to say that the Super Mario's movie is an incredible movie it's not one of the best movies out there but it's so much fun to watch that yeah actually the critics are stupid. There's even people Oh do I mean critics critics are not people, but there are even critics who negatively review the film just because princess peach isn't the hero. It's called the Super Mario Bros movie you morons
It may not be the best (which is nothing wrong with it), but it's a great movie.
@@scottchaison1001Miyamoto-san and Nintendo HQ would be pissed if the filmmakers tried to sneak that shit into their Super Mario films! 😂😂😂
The story is pretty generic, but I really liked it. It focused more on the character of mario, peach, and bowser instead of having a more unique story but it works. I wish they drove deeper with the relationship dk and mario have and with a bit more time, the finale could feel less rushed. Parts of it were more "Hey, look at that area. I remember that from the games" some of that was done well, while other times could've been more on the nose. It's just fun to watch and I'd be fine watching it again. It's nothing like puss in boots the last wish, but it's not bad. The movie is really good, and the best thing illumination has made since despicable me.
Exactly. It’s okay for a movie to just be fun.
Just listened to the first 5 minutes of the Retronauts review and they literally say anyone who enjoyed the movie is dumb. So many pretentious pricks.
The Super Mario Bros. series debuted in the 1980's, so the inclusion of 1980's music is not so strange.
It is strange, there was no reason for take on me to play when they're going through Kong kingdom
idk man they kinda felt shoved in there the last moments before the movie's released
The songs they did pick were a lil strange but i can understand adding them to taget those who played the original Mario games as 80s kids
@@ratedr7845 Nah, it fits pretty well with the scene. It isn't strange.
@@Fymzie Nah, they didn't felt shoved in the last moment, they fit pretty well in the scenes.
So long as nintendo has a habd on any animated project that will be done in the future, we can be sure we won't get tired of their movies, as for other studios... We know paramount is great with sonic so there is that
As long as Miyamoto-san is involved, I will be confident going forward! 😊
This movie is like Nintendo and Illumination saw what the original did, and they decided "y'know what, lets give em what they deserve", and boy did they. It's not perfect by any means, but goddamn is it a blast from start to finish! Just like most Mario Games, it's action-packed and rarely slows down, and all the cameos and references bring a nostalgic tear to the eye. To HELL with the media trying to make it all about THEIR wants, this movie, as i said, gives us what WE want.
2:40 that definitely grace Randolph how the movie is offensive
FAMILIARITY...One of the few reasons we love this "play it safe" movie.
Just a few?
Did you see anything you hadn't already seen in the video games?
@@zypher1144 No, but why would that be a bad thing? I consider it as a good thing.
What would normally take other CZcamsrs ~25 minutes to explain, you were able to do in about 5 minutes. EXCELLENT video. Spot on in all aspects. Well done!
i appreciate the kind words! thanks!
One of those critic reviews near the end of the segment where you said “Mario stories aren’t known for their complexity” to paraphrase. I said the exact same thing in a video criticizing the Mario movie, like the most you should expect for the Mario movie was Mario stops Bowser. Anything else in the middle is just gonna be the physical journey with no exposition.
Critics in media often have ideological bias and aren't qualified to even critique a movie they know nothing about.
Perhaps they should inform the audience of their limited perspective on the movie and maybe they aren't the best of judges?
These "critics" just hate Chris Pratt
You’re a success of reviewing this movie, Love the fact that u roast the critics
thank you!
We need movie movie adaptations!!
This movie was great it was fun comical and just great there was no stupid toilet humor and there was no stupid raunchy jokes the musics was great the voice acting plus the animation! The tiny details! Like the fabrics on the the characters clothes and the fur on Donkey Kong and the Scales on bowser and yeah I’m tired of super hero movies being light hearted and comical every time…I want dark gritty the Batman did that for me and blue beetle well I am a curious I mean blue beetle is such a cool character it’s hard to think how it can be done but I’m curious
My son wasn't a huge Mario fans as he only plays the Mario Kart series in Switch, but he's a convert after watching the movie, I think it has a lot to do with the hilariously blisteringly fast pace in it..
Everything is so certain and laid out as straightforward as possible, which is great..🎉🎉
Hey dude I just found your channel and I’ve gotta say that I’m pleasantly surprised at the quality of your content. I hope you grow from here!
thanks my guy! glad you enjoyed!
On one hand, I think what Disney is behind this backlash campaign; probably feeling threatened what Nintendo is entering the Cinema Animation market;
On the other hand, I think Nintendo is happy about this backlash. They know their People's feeling about critics, and probably were betting even people who don't like Mario would watch Mario out of spite to Critics and Disney.
"Non-existant and offensive story.."
So which is it?
If the story doesn't exist, its surely can't be offensive. If the story is offensive, then it definitely EXISTS! 🎉
W0ketards contradict themselves in the same sentence 😂🤣
Speaking for yourself my goombah dude. I will NEVER tire of superhero movies or really any particular movie genre I like. I will however for always and forever tire of bad movies and bad movie trends, of which sadly the superhero genre has been caught up in due to Marvel and DC's rank stupidity. Feeding into the 'superhero fatigue' is really stupid and hypocritical because it's just an excuse for Disney and WB to cover up the fact that they're incompetent just like the animation fatigue' narrative or covid narrative or streaming narrative for all their other, non-superhero stinkers. Narratives that the super Mario Bros movie just blew up like that final fight scene with Bowser.
To any of the critics out there, name one other film that has brought 4 + generations together for a fun and cute, albeit a tad short, movie where everyone had a good time and the parents didn't want to bang their heads against the seat from boredom?
The movie is a really good Mario movie.
And that's exactly what we wanted.
"Then before you know it, we'll be tired of video game adaptations like we're already tired of superhero movies." You're probably right, but that hopefully means we'll get some more decent adaptations of games along the way.
here’s hoping!
"You want to make an omellette you got a crack a few eggs"
@@Anonymous-ks1pn "your making the mother of all omelettes jack, you can't fret over every egg" ~armstrong probably
That will take a couple of decades, if history repeats itself. And decades are not a small timeframe.
@@do_not_at_me_bro Yep
Rule of thumb, if the credit hate it, the movie is actually good for everyone else.
Which is why I watched Kong vs Godzilla in 2021 and I hadn't been to cinemas since then, now Mario movie is out I'm seeing it for the third time in cinemas within two weeks
not always right and no im not on rotten tomatoes critics side but idk, maybe on other websites but yea, sometimes the critics may not be that stupid, but meh they dont matter
3:22 Paper Mario 64, Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door, and Super Paper Mario: “ALLOW US TO INTRODUCE OURSELVES!!!!”
Watched the movie yesterday, at the end the whole cinema was clapping along the credits music, it was beautifull
Can’t wait for the Zelda movie, quite literally a cinematic masterpiece
Nintendo is killing it... Detective Pichaku then this ... Now I need to buy a Nintendo Switch
Dude just buy it already , I have 2 switch and almost 100 games in my shelf
The wii sports golf music at the end sent me, chef's kiss
4:18 it sadly always is, Never forced to try, never forced to actually Respect their watchers since they'll blindly consume anything that makes them see pretty colors or laugh at something.
since people don't need to try anymore, oh wait they did and its Dreamworks, they make mistakes definitly as thats the risk you get from taking many risks to create masterpieces that care about their audiences full of children and adults, Shrek with its well done storytelling about love, Kungfu Panda about finding inner love, and Puss and boots the last wish in Finding acceptance in lack of control.
Pixar rarely, they do make something genuenly profound like Soul.
Basically the reason the "critics" are calling this movie a threat is exactly what you pointed out in your assessment. It's not pushing a narrative, thus is is offensive to them.
If Nintendo are smart, they'll be the ones to end the video game adaption movies with a Super Smash Bros movie AFTER exhausting ALL their storied franchises. Which (yes) will take MANY years to go through to get to Super Smash Bros.
*Makes a library of fire emblem movies*
Just on one of the last things you mentioned… I just want to say I don’t have superhero fatigue. I have bad movie fatigue.
This movie was just like the video games a fun adventure for everyone. It was a basic hero's journey with little else. Maybe critics have been spoiled by the Pixar movies that usually have something for adults in addition to being a kids movie but this did not have that. Also, I think a lot of the official critics are a little too full of themselves to realize this was first and foremost a kid's movie and saw this movie as something they could dunk on to show they are not a shill of the industry. For a lot of movies, the audience depends on critics to know if it's good or not but this is Mario. Still the biggest character in video game history. So there is a built-in audience, and they came in droves.
Did you know the movie still need come out in Japan/ Korea ect i believe they even delay it and it mostly likely be release in Golden week as it a Holiday in Japan where all children are free i believe
The Same way The Avengers was Special to Comic Book Fans and is just Dumb Fun for Them, The Mario Movie is Special for Most Gamers, If not all of Them. It's also dumb Fun. Casual people who have never played a video game or a Mario Game for that Matter can Enjoy it too despite tons of refrences. People were saying the same things about comic book movies years ago, and now they are some of the biggest hits we've seen, sure they've had a crappy track record recently(Marvel) but they can still be enjoyed by someone. So I don't see the problem. Can't Entertainment be an Escape from Reality? I don't need to have an existential crisis everytime I watch a FICTIONAL movie
Just saw the movie. It was a lot of fun. Plus, I like the message, not giving even when facing a bully bigger than you. It's simple, but I think more people need this kind of message.
I deeply appreciate that you included Grace Rando - uh, I mean, that anonymous review. . . .
you mean Dirk Diggler? What a dumbass…
Ngl the movie truly feel like an actual adaptation of the game like it could actually happen in a mario game
and the funny thing they failed at trying to make this movie fail 😭😭😂
FAILED MISERABLY! 🤣🤣🤣
I think the inclusion of 80's pop rock wasn't bad, it was pretty good it felt like the movie gives you some sense of nostalgia and brings you back to the NES times and the live action Mario movie.
Chillax in the blue beetle thing, I’m so ready for that
Maybe I'm just dense, but I feel like the title of this video wasn't really covered. WHY did the media need the Mario Movie to fail? We know the critics weren't kind, yet the audience is overwhelmingly praising it by comparison. Yes, it's fun and has certain problems, yet the fun and entertainment outweighs them. But that didn't really answer, why did the media NEED the Mario Movie to fail?
Or did you say your answer and I just didn't connect it? Was it about studios forgetting to just entertain?
all good if it wasn’t clear, but i pretty much insinuated that because the film lacked a political message, the critics weren’t as receptive to the movie as the audience was.
1:17 they have a mixed opinion, they don't hate it
I will say the cliche of 80's pop rock would normally be off-putting, BUT Mario came out in the 80's so in this case I think it works.
This movie is exactly what it was made to be. A good kids movie where you can forget about life for a few hours. I wasn't a fan of it because it wasn't the style of movie I like. But it is perfect version of that style!
The critics don't know shit. That movie was fantastic.
2:32 oh yeeeah the awesome part 2 JoJo resurface to outsmart the critics
nice catch caesar-chan!
Last time I went to a movie theater was in 2018, last movie watched: 2019. This movie got me to go to the theater again, and I wasn't disappointed.
Can't wait for the sequel
