Just wondering if it's an actual good movie or not.

Don't really do animated movies anymore, but I did it for Spider-Verse because I immediately heard amazing things and Miles being from Brooklyn is always gonna be a standout to me since I'm also from Brooklyn.

Next animated I was gonna watch was the next 2 Spider-Verse movies.

I'm not really aware of what the hype is saying, but I thought it was pretty fun with a lot of shameless fanservice which imo is kinda why it works.

If you are a Mario fan who can just sit back and enjoy a fun romp stuffed to bursting with references that range from nostalgic to modern, it's a fantastic movie.

If you're expecting high cinema quality writing and deep story, you're not gonna like it.

Spiderverse is like SSS+ tier in terms of Animation movies pantheon.

It'd be tough to match that kind of quality tbqh.

So I ended up watching it last night and it was pretty damn good though very short. Lots of nostalgia, but it wasn't overwhelming. All the VAs came off pretty great, especially Peach. Happy they got Charles Martinet in there.

I was shocked they actually went with their origins being from Brooklyn like the old cartoons and games. They even reused the portal thing from the original live action movie.

The most unrealistic thing about the movie was there was no NYPD while the city was being destroyed Thanos style. Even Spider-Verse handled that better.

And yeah, Spider-Verse is still a MUCH better movie.

Mario movie is ok.

It doesnt do anything heinous. Its veryyyyyy safe. Pays good tribute to the source material, and isnt an annoying product placement like Smurfs was. looks nice.

That being said, it isnt very interesting and it wont surprise you. It is Merio. In movie form. Thats it. Its a fun watch, but youll probably not need to see it again.

Mario is a 6/10 and thats saying a lot cause a lot of people here thought it was going to be a 2/10.

It's understandable considering what happened to the live action movie. I feel like that entire situation really left Nintendo with a sour taste for the movie scene (except for Pokmon).

. There was hype?

Its just a fun popcorn family movie. If that sounds interesting to you and you want to have a lot of nostalgic moments if you grew up playing Mario games, then yes.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.
