By now most of you have probably already watched the Super Mario Galaxy Movie, but some of you may be wating to watch it at home on Netflix or something. To save you some time, I will help you decide whether or not it is worth your time, hopefully without spoiling too much.
Firstly, 10/10 movie. I am obviously biased due to being a Mario fan, but it is a good movie. I actually watched it twice, the first time on release day, and the second time because we were bored and in a mall with a movie theater. It is definitely oriented towards kids, but any Mario fan will probably have a great time. I don’t know what the critics were watching, because I think they entered the wrong theater and watched Fornite gameplay instead of the movie, at least based on their reviews. If you want to enjoy the plot, it is recommended to bring your braincells because it is rather dense. If you want to enjoy the colors, then turning off your braincells is recommended. Finally, if you want to enjoy the references, keep your eyes open and your neurons ready.
However, there are a few (mostly optional) prerequisites to enjoying the movie. Firstly, you should probably watch the first movie first, like a sensible person. Secondly, if you are not a mario fan or a general Nintendo fan, it is less likely you will enjoy the movie because you won’t understand the references. Third, medium size popcorn was not enough at the two movie theaters I went to, but how much popcorn you need is at your discretion. Fourth and finally, to fully understand the plot, it is recommended that you use your brain rather than staring at your phone.
Overall Very Good Movie. Would Watch Again At Home. Now go watch it!
