Bollywood Crazies Opinion: The story is very simple and presented it decently by the makers. There are hardly any exciting element in the story otherwise it would have been a great treat for the fans. Well, this is surely a film for the kids and they will love it without a doubt. So, if the kids come to the theaters, then ultimately the parents will accompany them. In India too, a city like Mumbai having good number of shows for this film, many are even housefull. With almost no promotion, the response in India is good I must say. Frankly, I have played different versions of Mario, Super Mario, so yes for me watching this film was a pure Nostalgia. The production value is good but it could have been better. Making a film like this is not easy at all, I would say it is a nice attempt to present this game based film for today’s audience. So, if you are 80s and 90s kids, you will surely get nostalgic watching this movie. The screen time is perfect and the editing is also ok. The first half is good but the problem comes in the second half where there’s hardly any thrilling element. The emotions were missing in this film else it would have been a game changer. The background music is so soothing and connecting that you want to hear it more. Not a perfect Mario film but not bad either. The screenplay could have been much better. Overall, the makers failed to connect everything properly and there are many loose ends to it.
The Super Mario Bros film have been directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic. It has been written by Matthew Fogel. It have been produced by Chris Meledandri and Shigeru Miyamoto. It has been edited by Eric Osmond and the musical score given by Brian Tyler.
Altogether, The Super Mario Bros Movie is earning well despite mixed reviews and may turn out to be a big hit both in North America and International market.
Last Word: Watch It if you love animated films and miss playing Mario games.
