Nintendo knows what's great about the 'Super Mario Bros.' games, and perfectly brings them to life on the big screen.
As Nintendo’s first serious attempt at conquering filmmaking, it’s a lovingly crafted entry point with the potential for more.

Aunques duela la mejor adaptación de la historia.

This lively computer-animated take on the video game just opened and it’s already the biggest box-office smash of 2023. Despite lapses into dull and disposable, it’s also a gift for parents seeking family entertainment for the 5-year-old in all of us. Game on.
For the Mario fan in your household, young or old, it’s likely exactly what they want it to be. However, if you’ve somehow managed to go through life without having any attachment to the character, there is absolutely no reason for you to watch it.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie brings together the many recognizable characters of the franchise, the musical flourishes, the colorful design, and even some replication of familiar gameplay, into a brisk 90-minute package that is as critic-proof as it is largely uninspiring.
The film feels like it’s content to check off to-do notes and scratch the viewer’s nostalgia itch.
But in going to such great lengths to avoid that film’s grim weirdness, the Super Mario Bros. Movie filmmakers have flattened the concept into benign nothingness. They’ve course corrected into the side of a mountain. There’s no heartbeat here.
Filme maravilhoso adorei a história

It felt decent, i enjoyed it it was fun, but felt that the story went a little too fast mainly speaking the begginning. Animation, music/sounds and voice acting was great too!

An aggressively mediocre movie.
Mario is arguably one of the best video games franchises ever as its formulas just work well, however it has a big flaw: not being able to flesh out things surrounding the narrative such as plot and characters. Will the movie be able to change that since these are crucial aspects for a movie?
The answer is no, as 'The Super Mario Bros Movie' is completely afraid to take any risk. The plot is as predictable and basic as it can get with many sub-plots that either get pushed aside or are straight-up ignored. The ridiculously fast pacing also doesn't allow you to enjoy each scene to the fullest and makes the plot even more messy than it already is.
The voice acting went full mainstream (and with mainstream I mean boring). The iconic Charles Martinet, despite being available, does not reprise his role as Mario and Luigi but is voicing a side character instead. Chris Pratt as Mario sounds as grating as you'd expect and Bowser aside, all characters sound almost as off as he does.
Why is this movie so beloved then? Why is it so high when it fails on almost everything? Simple, because it's Mario so you HAVE to like it, but if it wasn't for Mario this movie would never be as big as it is. Its fans will tell you to not listen to critics because they are "complaining" and "nitpicking", but in reality critics were the only audience that wasn't biased with this movie.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie is a 90-minute Nintendo commercial masquerading as a feature film -- it may be more faithful to its source material than the original 1993 film, but it really isn't any better. In fact, say what you will about that movie, but as terrible as it was, it at least had some ambition -- this is just nothing.
Strip away all of the candy colored visuals, and what you're left with here isn't a story, but a series of references. If ever there was a movie's success that would embolden executives to ditch writers in favor of A.I. script writing, this would be it; you do not need a human to plug in a bunch of references and call it a day. Your time would be better served just playing a Mario Bros. game.
