Mario is back for his second movie, and this time, he’s turning the iconic Nintendo Wii game into Illumination’s next big sequel with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. In this review, I’ll be looking into how this feels more like The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2 than something that’s more like Galaxy, even if they have to rescue Rosalina this time. However, even if this expectedly has more fan service than story (even bringing in a special with Fox McCloud form Star Fox), is this still fun to watch as it is playing the games, or did I end up with Yoshi egg on my face after watching the movie?

I saw the movie in IMAX for the midnight screening, mostly to do with preventing critics from lifting the review embargo that Universal is doing. From a fan perspective, it fun time, but as a critic perspective, it looks mediocre at best kids flick. I had a good time when first Mario movie came out which I give a 6/10, but with the sequel, it a downgrade. Much like the with first film, it repeats the similar problems as the first film which the story is thin, weak writing, too many characters this time that feels either underdeveloped or underused, too many subplots, over reliance on fan service and poor misrepresentation of Super Mario Galaxy for the big screen. I know I didn’t get a chance to play the Wii game as a kid when it came out but they should’ve handled that game in particular to make more like Galaxy than Mario movie one. For positives, the animation looked spectacular, decent voice acting from most of the cast, fun action scenes, nice score from Brian Tyler which by the way I’m glad they listened to criticism of not relying on pop songs for the sequel unlike the first film, and some Easter eggs that fans will enjoy. It not a terrible video game adaptation film compared to some of the bad films of the past, but I was expecting a bit more. From a fans perspective, it a 7/10, but as a critic perspective, it a 5/10. It not gonna be in the level of other animated films something like Hoppers or even GOAT since also does a little similar much like Mario Galaxy with the biggest differences is that it focuses more on basketball but have some substance throughout. It’ll definitely make a billion again from the look at the box office right now but as long fans are happy with it, then that fine.

I saw this on opening day with a friend, and I did enjoy it as a lifelong Mario fan. Sure, it does have a lot of the same problems as the first, but it also holds on to what made the first one enjoyable. I wonder if this slight alteration of how this review is done will start to become a normal thing now. However, there are a few characters I would like to elaborate on more. First Wart, I like the update of him being like a crime boss and the Mairo 2 baddies being his cronies, but he kinda just disappeared after the casino scene, especially when it was hinted that he has more of a connection to Bowser Jr.'s plot than at first glance. As For the Honey Queen. Seriously, that's all?!?! Sure, she was also a minor character in the games, but they really could've done more with her than just that one scene. Finally, there's Rosalina. Sure, her backstory isn't the same as the one in the games, and I think I was a bit unsure of it at first, but I can see how it could work in its own right, and I did find it kinda cool how they managed to include a scrapped idea from the first Galaxy game. But the movie did not have the time for her new update to be as effective as it could've been. This honestly makes me wish we could get a new Mario show or at least a Rosalina spin-off movie. So there will be more time to flesh out some of these characters further. Well, we'll just have to wait and see what the future brings us. Also, I believe I was fanboying on the inside at that final post-credit scene.

Huh guess I was right I knew it from the start animat would give it a 6/10 but still I don’t want to see it and tbh with you I think Mario should have stick with games and not movies let Sonic do movies it’s for the best that Sonic movies are better than the Mario movies

Tom Jackson

I think the score you gave it is rational. Would you be open for a Super Smash Bros. movie (or what ever Nintendo movie would come out in the future. *cough* Kirby *cough*)

Anthony Estrada

I do this too where the first thing I do is go to the end of the video to see the scores and then watch the video to find out why. I too prefer the format of waiting to tell the scores until the end

I still can't get over Chris Pratt as Mario. Honestly, he just flat out doesn't work.

Jon Bilgutay

I'm with you, I felt they should have saves 'Galaxy' for later. They should have made a 'Sunshine' movie first. On a separate note, I'm glad they are trying to make a 'Nintendo-verse' Hopefully this means a PIkmin Movie in the foreseeable future.

I’m sure that’s a movie Schaffrillas would say “Shut up and take my money!”

I figured this was going to be more of a mindless popcorn flick where it’s more about seeing the different references to Mario games than making a sequel that improves upon the flaws of the first film while elevating it to be more like an animated film that can be enjoyed by both kids and adults on an intellectual level. Kind of similar to Space Jam where it’s more about the Looney Tunes playing basketball against an original animated villain team with a big-name basketball player than providing a sophisticated plot. Like that film, it’s harmless in giving the fans what they want to see than what critics and serious connoisseurs of cinema want to see. Also, I think your continual rage when bringing up the name “Super Mario Galaxy Movie” is about to become your equivalent of the “Dehydration Gun” meme.

I also hope this scoring while doing the review is a one time EXCLUSIVELY for this reason and not a new format by the time your Classic Review of Tarzan comes out. Like Alan Olivia, I don’t want you spoiling your overall score for the films before the end considering, as someone brought up, there’s plenty of reviewers that like to fast forward to the end of your reviews, whether regular, Special or Classic Reviews, to find out the final score for the film and rewatch to understand why you gave it that score. For me personally, I like watching your reviews to end and waiting to see what your final score is. So, I’d rather wait than have the overall score be spoiled in the middle of the review.

I'll let you know now that I will also be trying this out with my Tarzan review. HOWEVER, keep in mind that I'm only doing this as an experiment to see how people will react to it and this could encourage people to keep watching and anticipate for the big final score in the end. Later this month, I'll put out a poll asking if you like this new addition or if I should go back to the original format. Remember, nothing is set in stone yet and this will be an experimental month to see if this gets people more engaged to see the review throughout or this wasn't necessary. Worst case is that the tests failed and the reviews will go back to how they were without the rating reveals.
