Nah, it's weirdly bugged. I'm seeing the 46%, too, but there are no selectable reviews. Do they like, not release them until the appointed time or something?

Sometimes I see the 46% but I can't click any of the reviews and sometimes it says there's a bunch of reviews and no score but I don't see any of the reviews

I had a sneaking suspicion considering the Embargo for the review was too close to the release date. Versus something like Puss in Boots The Last Wish that had their review embargo 2 weeks after release date and that was a spectacular film.

Illumination is a hack of a studio. The fact that their marketing budget is always higher than their production budget for their films shows they should be called a marketing studio than an actual movie production studio. I was just hoping this movie would be the one to prove me wrong.

Yeah, I still think it'll be entertaining enough. SF Chronicle gave it a 1/4...I like SF Chronicle for my local news, but I've noticed their film and TV critics are just awful.

maybe if this movie were about an obese Mario suffering from depression after Peach killed herself and trying to reconnect with his brother Luigi before he dies of congestive heart failure, it would have gotten all the awards...

Well that's unfortunately the thing about Mario. It's not a story. It's a brand.

And if you want to actually make a "good" movie about it, you'd need to take some risks, which they apparently aren't willing. Given Miyamoto is so attached to the production of this, I'm not surprised.

Just based on what they have shown, to me the movie just feels like a Mario universe theme park rather than a solid dedicated story arc movie. I'm sure fans that just love seeing Mario type things will love it but for actual film fans it is a major pass.
You're not wrong, but that's ultimately the best way to portray Mario in a movie. Anything else would just be too hard to take seriously. The Mario games that actually do have good stories rely on being told through the medium of a video game.

To be fair there's stuff like The Lego Movie that does show these movies can be more.

But also it's not entitled to good reviews just because it's a Mario movie. If it's a generic kids movie with no substance it should be rated as such.
