I'M BACK!!! Hi there random stranger, it's been a while! I know this review is waaaay overdue but better late than never I guess? Sorry I haven't been uploading much for a while, I got a lot of personal stuff I had to prioritize. But, I'm back now! And I can't wait to create more content for you guys! Thanks for stopping by, hope you enjoyed your stay, have a great day and a great life! ⭐
Honestly I liked the Mario movie it was simple and fun, nothing much, the animation was gorgeous but the plot and characters are basic, Jack Black as Bowser is genius tho
I just didn't like Mary Sue peach. I liked her in the games more. She's capable but still gentle and cutsy / soft. To much attitude, she feels like a diffrent character... like If they switched bubbles with buttercup xD
@@Thebeezzkneezz. wouldn’t call her a Mary Sue but I agree I don’t like her personality as much in this movie then the games. Especially since we already had Daisy as the more active and sassy princess but now it just makes me think she won’t be added into any movies at all or if she is her character will be even more in the shadow of peach.
@@geox8485I agree ): I think Peach being a bit of a damsel gives her depth. Not in the mainline games but the RPGs have her while still being kidnapped, being helpful while kidnapped and finding ways to help Mario as well as understand her situation and sometimes even help those under the villains rule. Meanwhile Daisy is the Tom girl who id love to see appear in more important roles.
My biggest complaint is it probably would have benefited from a longer runtime. It kind of felt like it just went from plot point to plot point in some scenes
Honestly same. No one can convince me there were other issues with the film. Only the pacing really hurt it in my opinion. I thought the Mario movie was amazing. I literally got emotional the first time watching it. (Maybe just because it’s a movie about something that didn’t get a movie before unless you count the… the other one.)
Oh my word, imagine is Disney made the Mario movie. That’s a bizarre and scary thought 😂 I saw a lot of Chris Pratt hate, but I think I mostly saw a LOT of praise for it. The animation looks like it’s so good
Here’s what would happen if Disney made the Mario movie 1: Luigi would be gay. 2:Tod would be black. 3: Bowser would be a capitalism. 4: And the story would be about saving the princess.
Don't speak of the mouse he's always listening and trying to get his fucking greedy grubby hands on every property imaginable let's not bring that into existence and mourn the universe that got that version because if there's one thing I'm fucking sure of it's every fucking universe Disney is by far the worst thing to happen to movies.
Chris Pratt was fine. He did not ruin the movie, but WOAH!! Better than Charlie Day as Luigi?!?! Idkkk, I’ve always been a fan of Chris Pratt but Jack Black and Charlie Day really outshined in the voice acting department for this one
It’s a simple movie, but sometimes that’s all I want to enjoy in the movie theatre. While it could’ve benefited from a longer runtime and more character development, it’s quite a charming movie. ✨
14:50 I feel a lot of people miss something here. I noticed this on a 2nd watch of the movie, Peach told the council of Toads that she was gonna leave for the Kong Kingdom THE NEXT MORNING. She wasn’t planning on leaving right then and there. When she met Mario (a potentially concerned citizen) and heard that his brother was captured by Bowser, Mario himself insisted on coming with. She wanted to test Mario’s ability and see if he was capable enough to actually face the potential dangers. By the next morning, even though Mario (ultimately) didn’t pass the course, she let him tag along cause she liked his tenacity. I’m sure if he didn’t show any progress at all by the morning, she wouldn’t have let him come. Ultimately, she didn’t “waste time” training Mario, because as she said, she wasn’t planning on leaving till the morning anyway. She probably would’ve slept or something within that time until she left at daylight. You may believe she actually should’ve left right away, but that wasn’t her plan, so it’s not a flaw within the script. Whether or not you want to count her not leaving right away as a critique, her taking time for Mario was not. That part is covered. That one line of dialogue is just very easy to miss.
Illumination was probably the best studio to get a Mario movie. They make straightforward films, and Mario practically doesn't have any plot, just save somebody from the big bad. It doesn't deserve anything grand like other game franchises.
I wouldn't have minded that most of the movie Mario and Luigi were split up if they just gave them BOTH their adventures. But they gave Luigi absolutely nothing to do until the Very last moment of the last scene..Which annoyed the crap out of me. I still enjoyed the movie but they may as well of left Luigi out of the movie entirely. And much agreed about how great they set up their brotherly love in the beginning only to completely ignore it until the final moment lol
It's nice to hear people talk about this movie even a few months after its release! It's not a masterpiece that will change cinema, but still an extremely fun time. I'd also go for 7/8 out of 10
I lost a good night, then moved. Still didn't like Pratt's performance here. And it doesn't still bother me knowing how much he was paid just to phone it in and put butts in seats.
You want to know what has always been on my mind about the ending, so bowsers castle teleported “onto” Brooklyn right, so his large castle literally crushed so many people. Mario indirectly killed so many people saving a bunch of mushrooms 😂😂😂
23:04 I feel like the point of Bowser saying this is that as soon as he hears someone is being trained by Peach and Luigi hints that the princess might like Mario, he immediately becomes jealous and builds up Mario to be this huge figure in his mind when they’ve never even met, so this scene feels pretty satisfying imo. Bowser lets out his internal rage at someone he feels like he’s met and has ruined everything for him when realistically Mario hasn’t done anything to him, it’s all just in Bowser’s head that Mario is ruining everything for him.
As for the General Koopa, he was seen in several scenes prior to his main scene on the rainbow road. he's seen leading the Paratroopas in the intro and during the party scene but not much more than that since Bowser's army doesn't get that much of a focus other than Kamek. Same can be said for that Eyepatch koopa who is also the only other original looking koopa in Bowser's army and yet he shows up in about 4 scenes, has 0 dialogue, and pretty much disappears from the movie after Peach agrees to marry Bowser. That's a fault of the movie for having some really bad pacing issues and you can tell a lot of things were cut/removed completely.
The reaction of "PEOPLE GOT MAD BECAUSE HE SAID WAHOO WRONG!!!" was literally my reaction with people hating on Chris Pratt as Mario 😂😂😂 (BRUH he didn't have to play Mario perfectly)
If he's going to make Nintendo pass over a decades old voice actor and be paid millions to phone it in: yes, I will criticize that. He didn't ruin the movie, but I feel he did take away from it.
Most of the folks in my circles were either unbothered by or were looking forward to the movie; and they actually grew up playing the Mario games. In regards to the hate I think that a lot of people hated it wasn’t because Chris Pratt did a bad job, but because it WAS Chris Pratt.
My only complant I had with this movie was it was to short. Like there are moments that are really good but I feel like they go by too fast or there are characters that just disappear in the movie or reappear out of nowhere. Like the Penguins they have scenes in the cage which are really funny with a psychotic Luma. But then they just disappear goes for Mario and Luigi's parents to. They just appear out of nowhere at the end of the movie but besides some of the complaints I had with this movie I still felt the movie was pretty good
Honestly, the huge hate wave was utterly ridiculous, and for no reason!! This movie deserved to succeed and it was a really, really superior considered its an illumination movie!
Not really. Luigi: Sidelined. Mario: Inconsistent voice Peach: Went the toxic girl boss route. She doesn’t get saved she fucking saves herself. Donkey Kong: Went from a decently written character who had his own identity outside of Mario to being demoted to being Mario’s knuckles. Bowser: Not much just more pathetic
@@feiwnakausvkaxbdkebkswowbq8331 you could’ve given actual criticism but instead made nitpicks about the characters when they were the actual good part of the movie
@@Nic_2751 Characters were the good part? These aren’t nitpicks it’s straight up their personality. You’re just tryna justify your reason for liking it because of your nostalgia for Mario as a game franchise.
My literal only issue with the Mario movie is that you know it's made by Illumination. Animation, while better, still looks like illumination, story, while Mario themed, still illumination. But honestly we all know it would've been a reck if Disney or Pixar made it. They'd have to remove rainbow road because they thought it was too gay for it to be profitable. So, in all honesty. Still enjoyable of a film.
I sort of made fun of Chris Pratt as well, but only for because I thought he was miscasted. However, after watching the film myself, and seeing for myself that Chris Pratt actually respects the fans of the Mario franchise and is not an egotistical Hollywood piece of trash, I apologized for making fun of him and it is pleasing to see Illumination actually listened to Nintendo and we’re willing to work under a mentorship with them. I hope Illumination will not descend into the woke insanity the media has become. Great review.
It was actually originally given to Disney, but Disney wanted to take main control as Disney does, so Nintendo was like 'yeah, no Disney'. So it went to Illumination because they did what Nintendo wanted. Also it's Twitter. What do you expect? The movie is simple but good. Wasn't the biggest fan of some of Peaches lines, but overall I rather enjoyed it.
Few things 1. With Luigi being captured it wouldn’t give Mario a reason to go on the adventure I was just glad he did something at the end 2. Not sure if you know Cat Mario in the game since it was Super Mario 3D world 3. The giant bullet bills are actually called Banzai bills 4. Is your little figure a marsh mellow or not I always wondered?
I liked this film, but when I compare the Mario movie to the live-action Sonic The Hedgehog movies, then you can sort of tell which one I enjoyed more.
@@RomanSimkinsit's a Mario movie the story wouldn't be that much when Mario stories are: Someone's kidnapped Gameplay Gameplay Gameplay Saved Extra gameplay
20:32 In some of the older Mario Kart games, you actually COULD trick the Blue Shell. Unfortunately that's not the case in the newer ones where it moves too fast to react...
If you saw the after credits shot it shows Bowser is consistent because he’s not going to hold Peach accountable he’s obsessed with her so it’s always going to be Mario’s fault for merely existing. Even after he’s imprisoned he’s still singing peaches. So no trust me he holds up.
That blue shell guy was actually in the beginning of the movie I think but he’s basically just like the general koopa that wasn’t touched on until later on 🤷🏽♂️
I think an interesting point of detail in this movie was how no matter how much the characters got knocked around, in the other dimension / kingdoms, they didn't get bruised up much if at all. But in the 'real world', they get bruised and banged up pretty bad, which is pretty neat to notice.
But it isn't that hard to explain though. Bowser is most likely blaming Mario for, well, existing and stealing his one and only true love. He most likely thinks that if Mario never appeared his wedding would have been a success.
6:43 oh god 😂😂😂 what are people thinking, wahoo wrong?! That's why god dang it community, why is this the reason, come on! This video is cool, I'm subscribing!
it’s one of illumination’s best movies it did good in the box office. It wasn’t that great but it’s the name alone that makes it good because everyone grew up with Mario and everyone knows his name, everyone knows that iconic wahoo
I think what Illumination should have done was to make multiple movies focusing on the origins of the characters while leading up to a final epic movie...
16:48 And Jack Black was originally against it. He changes his mind, and likes it now, but he shockingly doesn't get A SINGLE CENT for the song... Although he IS allowed to perform it at concerts...
This movie reminded me of jumanji quite a lot, hits the ground running, never lets you go, and then wrapped up with a bow nicely. Also this bowser is lot more dellusional and posessive!
I honestly think Movie Bowser was a VERY GOOD portrayal of game Bowser, the only real differences between them was that movie Bowser didn't seem to care for his troops like Game Bowser does, and that movie Bowser actually remembered Luigi's name. Other than that, they were almost the same character.
@@erikbihari3625 Like, in Mario RPG: Legend of seven stars, some of his minions leave his army without his permission because they were afraid of Smithy, and when he finds out, he just forgives them and tells them to go live a happy life. He was furious when Fawful and Count Bleck put his minions in danger and they were the main reason he joined mario's team in Super Paper Mario. He even forgave 3 traitrors who betrayed him and joined Fawful. And he does compliment his minions when they genuinely do a good job. So yeah
My only gripe before the movie released was the fact that illumination was who they worked with… the thought of the two most money hungry and soulless companies working together is crazy 💀
I give this movie a 7/10 too. It's good, and it's a nice mindless fun time, pretty funny, lots of nostalgia, but the writing is pretty... meh. Also didn't like what they did with Peach and Luigi. Felt like they did Luigi dirty, and Peach didn't feel like Peach.. didn't like Peach's voice either tbh..... Toad also felt forced
I liked the Mario Movie, because it had a TON of little easter eggs and references for long-time Mario and Nintendo fans that did not need to be there, yet they chose to include anyway. Its basically eye-candy for Mario fans all the way through.
20:16 Actually, I think that is what happens when the blue shell is empty, like in the games. I think that the koopa can control who he blows up when he is in the shell
I was honestly impressed with Chris Pratt's performance in this movie. I don't know what people are talking about... Chris Pratt sounds exactly the same in every movie he's ever been in, and yet this is the first time where his voice actually kinda works (surprisingly enough) and he talks with an ever so slight accent that makes him sound a lot less like his usual generic voice.
I actually got annoyed at Twitter for the opposite reason, while I think this move is pretty good and is fun to watch, it does have some problems such as bad pacing and some odd character interactions for example. However Twitter likes to see this movie as the Holy Grail and believes it’s one of the best movies in history that beats out all the others, and while at first I didn’t care as much about them praising the movie. I started to get pissed when a lot of people starting hating on different movies such as saying they aren’t that good or the Mario movie beats it out by a long shot, along with Twitter attacking and harassing those who don’t see the movie as a 10/10 and had some complaints with it. I’m fine when people are talking good about a movie but don’t start slandering other people’s work or swearing at others who don’t share the same opinion as you just to make the thing you like look better, it helps no one.
Honestly peach’s voice was worse than mario’s. She sounds nothing like peach and we never got any scenes showing how comically sweet she is to the point where even her enemies are respectful of her
@@SeasonalGFilms strongly disagree. I love every mario character’s original voice and the fact that the pokemon anime is so popular despite having far more obnoxious voices disproves people who claim, peach or mario’s original voices would have driven people away. Just my two cents
@@firenze6478 I think the writers wanted Peach to be a more mature than in the games. Also Pokemon movies, their based on the anime more so than the games.
I will say, you're right. The voice acting wasn't absolutely terrible. It was, as you said, fine. But for a big time movie for a franchise as big as Super Mario, and how its loved by so many people around the globe, I feel like we shouldn't hire professional actors just to set the bar at just "fine". Not only does this please the loyal and long time fans, but it also helps to pull new audiences into the vibrant world of Super Mario. I'm not saying Chris Pratt should never have been casted as Mario, and im sure voice acting is not easy, but just a little more enthusiasm. Sorry I went on a tangent but I'm just saying that "fine" shouldn't be where we set the bar for a Mega Mushroom sized franchise such as Mario.
The movie is actually pretty good, i was nervous about the fact Illumination was the studio that made it but it turned out really good! The only complain is that the pacing was really fast since an hour wasn't enough to cover every point with enough screentime, but maybe if they made a sequel (due to the yoshi egg ending) maybe this time they could slow down the pacing but anyways it's a good movie for killing time, not every movie needs to have a profund note anyways. It's just safe dumb fun, and nobody hates dumb fun...
The only thing that really PISSED ME OFF, is that they had so good content, and then... it was cut. For example the original Mario entering the mushroom kingdom soundtrack was perfect, but it was replaced with a generic track, but remixed, as if we hadn't enough remixes of the same tracks again and again and again and again and again and again. But the worse thing: they took "Drivin' me bananas" and replaced it with an ancient song. everyone has already heard thousands and thousands of times. What's so great about this song? Right, NOTHING, it's not original, it's overused and in my opinion not even good. Oh and btw: They cut the GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF part too :(. !--> Still my favourite movie of all time!
I don't get it... what do you mean with "the original Mario entering the mushroom kingdom soundtrack was perfect, but it was replaced with a generic track, but remixed"? The Drivin' me bananas issue is fair. Thankfully there is an edit here in TH-cam that corrects that mistake
I like Jim Carrey Eggman more than Jack Black Bowser. I mean as a whole, I like Bowser better than Eggman, but in movie form I like Eggman better. I think it's because Eggman in the Sonic movies gets more screen time and is just so much goofier. He also presents himself as more of a threat as he doesn't care about anyone and he interacts with Sonic for more than 5 minutes. He interacts with Sonic a lot in the movies. Now Bowser does have that one scene with Luigi, but Eggman got a lot more time with Knuckles in the 2nd movie
Another reason why the Sonic live-action animation hybrid movies are structured better as films than Mario. But the Mario movie is way more fun for sure.
Seriously. And the fact that they were also using Charles Martinet’s name as a weapon against Chris was both disrespectful towards Pratt and Martinet. People really do owe Chris an apology. I rooted for Pratt from day 1. You voiced that plumber well, Chris! F*CK THEM HATERS!
@@silashurd3597Plus, I will say, I love that people said stuff of the likes of "VAs are always shafted in Hollywood, Durr Hurr" when Chris Pratt was announced as the voice of Mario... Oh, but Anya Taylor Joy voicing Peach and Keegan Michael Key voicing Toad instead of Samantha Kelly? Jack Black voicing Bowser instead of Scott Burns or Kenny James? Totally fine and dandy, right? And the less I talk about Charlie Day voicing Luigi instead of Martinet, the better... And where were these people when Ryan Reynolds played Detective Pikachu instead of Kaiji Tang or when Idris Elba played Knuckles instead of Travis Willingham or Dave B. Mitchell? Not that they did a bad job, but how convenient that it's only when it's Pratt as Mario instead of Martinet that they say that... Selective outrage, much? (Sorry for the rant, just wanted to get that out of my system 😅)
Tbh I think the hate was fueled by the fact that Pratt is basic of all basic actors to pick and tbh the trailers made him sound like he was just doing it for a pay check and his very very minor fumble with the stomping koopas and pausing durring it made it worse it didn’t ruin the movie he did fine and the backlash probs made him re-record lines I think the wahoo was re-recorded I’m not sure I say the hate was 50% fair and the rest was toxic and unneeded harassment even I really dislike him (mostly due to my family hating him) i wouldn’t go harass him I mostly compared the voice to emmet which is just his voice but with Mario he has a small accent to it Chris having a basic voice for mario isn’t something to burn people over yes we could of had better we just have to deal with it and Chris did a perfectly fine voice it isn’t bad

Like there are moments that are really good but I feel like they go by too fast or there are characters that just disappear in the movie or reappear out of nowhere. Like the Penguins they have scenes in the cage which are really funny with a psychotic Luma. But then they just disappear goes for Mario and Luigi's parents to. They just appear out of nowhere at the end of the movie but besides some of the complaints I had with this movie I still felt the movie was pretty good
Illumination makes straight forward films,they got no time for plot so for illumination standards it was ok
Honestly, the huge hate wave was utterly ridiculous, and for no reason!!
This movie deserved to succeed and it was a really, really superior considered its an illumination movie!
It didn’t deserve to succeed cause it was going to anyway
Not really. Luigi: Sidelined. Mario: Inconsistent voice Peach: Went the toxic girl boss route. She doesn’t get saved she fucking saves herself. Donkey Kong: Went from a decently written character who had his own identity outside of Mario to being demoted to being Mario’s knuckles. Bowser: Not much just more pathetic
@@feiwnakausvkaxbdkebkswowbq8331 you could’ve given actual criticism but instead made nitpicks about the characters when they were the actual good part of the movie
@@Nic_2751 Characters were the good part? These aren’t nitpicks it’s straight up their personality. You’re just tryna justify your reason for liking it because of your nostalgia for Mario as a game franchise.
@@feiwnakausvkaxbdkebkswowbq8331 got any other weak defenses and petty arguments over an actual critical analytic like me?
My literal only issue with the Mario movie is that you know it's made by Illumination. Animation, while better, still looks like illumination, story, while Mario themed, still illumination.
But honestly we all know it would've been a reck if Disney or Pixar made it. They'd have to remove rainbow road because they thought it was too gay for it to be profitable.
So, in all honesty. Still enjoyable of a film.
you gotta make more man, i really enjoy your content and commentary, keep up the good work
And even when they do interact at the very end of the movie they have like 1 like each to each other it’s a shame we never saw their dynamic….
I sort of made fun of Chris Pratt as well, but only for because I thought he was miscasted. However, after watching the film myself, and seeing for myself that Chris Pratt actually respects the fans of the Mario franchise and is not an egotistical Hollywood piece of trash, I apologized for making fun of him and it is pleasing to see Illumination actually listened to Nintendo and we’re willing to work under a mentorship with them. I hope Illumination will not descend into the woke insanity the media has become. Great review.
I wish some people would say that
Had me until "woke insanity" 😭
Can I please ask what is woke?
Do you have a writing team for your opening skit? It is always fresh and hilarious 🤣 you knock it out the ball park with your jokes too
It was actually originally given to Disney, but Disney wanted to take main control as Disney does, so Nintendo was like 'yeah, no Disney'. So it went to Illumination because they did what Nintendo wanted.
Also it's Twitter. What do you expect? The movie is simple but good. Wasn't the biggest fan of some of Peaches lines, but overall I rather enjoyed it.
Just FYI, you could stomp koopas(turtles) in the arcade games...lol
Few things
1. With Luigi being captured it wouldn’t give Mario a reason to go on the adventure I was just glad he did something at the end
2. Not sure if you know Cat Mario in the game since it was Super Mario 3D world
3. The giant bullet bills are actually called Banzai bills
4. Is your little figure a marsh mellow or not I always wondered?
🤣lmao, that last question
I liked this film, but when I compare the Mario movie to the live-action Sonic The Hedgehog movies, then you can sort of tell which one I enjoyed more.
BEANS 🫘
I prefer the Mario franchise, but the Sonic movies are just better movies. Mario didn’t deserve what he got.
@@RomanSimkinsit's a Mario movie the story wouldn't be that much when Mario stories are:
Someone's kidnapped
Gameplay
Gameplay
Gameplay
Saved
Extra gameplay
I’m like the only person on the planet who prefers the Mario movie over the first Sonic movie.
@@Rediscool9 No, you’re not.
BRO that opening skit was fucking hilarious 😂😂
The movie was fun, not amazing or spectacular. Just some simple fun and visually awesome. Jack Black as Bowser is *chef's kiss*
20:32 In some of the older Mario Kart games, you actually COULD trick the Blue Shell. Unfortunately that's not the case in the newer ones where it moves too fast to react...
If you saw the after credits shot it shows Bowser is consistent because he’s not going to hold Peach accountable he’s obsessed with her so it’s always going to be Mario’s fault for merely existing. Even after he’s imprisoned he’s still singing peaches. So no trust me he holds up.
A freshly bakd beaniebrian video. Good for the soul
That blue shell guy was actually in the beginning of the movie I think but he’s basically just like the general koopa that wasn’t touched on until later on 🤷🏽♂️
23:03 I mean, Bowser could have a reason being that "peach falled in love with mario instead of me" making more sense for him being angry.
I think an interesting point of detail in this movie was how no matter how much the characters got knocked around, in the other dimension / kingdoms, they didn't get bruised up much if at all. But in the 'real world', they get bruised and banged up pretty bad, which is pretty neat to notice.
Despite all its problems, this was a movie I watched with a smile on my face for pretty much the entire tine
I'm glad I'm not the only one who is confused by bowser shouting at mario blaming him for the wedding being ruined but still an amazing movie overall.
But it isn't that hard to explain though.
Bowser is most likely blaming Mario for, well, existing and stealing his one and only true love. He most likely thinks that if Mario never appeared his wedding would have been a success.
@@JoziGlitzh"true love" lol
6:43 oh god 😂😂😂 what are people thinking, wahoo wrong?! That's why god dang it community, why is this the reason, come on! This video is cool, I'm subscribing!
it’s one of illumination’s best movies it did good in the box office. It wasn’t that great but it’s the name alone that makes it good because everyone grew up with Mario and everyone knows his name, everyone knows that iconic wahoo
Honestly kinda glad Disney didn’t get rights to Mario
I think what Illumination should have done was to make multiple movies focusing on the origins of the characters while leading up to a final epic movie...
19:36 but in the games doesn’t bowser only show up at the end anyway?
16:48 And Jack Black was originally against it. He changes his mind, and likes it now, but he shockingly doesn't get A SINGLE CENT for the song... Although he IS allowed to perform it at concerts...
YOOO LETS GOO BEANIIEBRIAN
Bowser's Peach song was the best part of the movie for me
This movie reminded me of jumanji quite a lot, hits the ground running, never lets you go, and then wrapped up with a bow nicely. Also this bowser is lot more dellusional and posessive!
I honestly think Movie Bowser was a VERY GOOD portrayal of game Bowser, the only real differences between them was that movie Bowser didn't seem to care for his troops like Game Bowser does, and that movie Bowser actually remembered Luigi's name. Other than that, they were almost the same character.
@@cbfranco3307. Bowser cared for his troops?
@@erikbihari3625 Duh,you played the games right? It's a main thing about Bowser's character.
@@erikbihari3625 Like, in Mario RPG: Legend of seven stars, some of his minions leave his army without his permission because they were afraid of Smithy, and when he finds out, he just forgives them and tells them to go live a happy life. He was furious when Fawful and Count Bleck put his minions in danger and they were the main reason he joined mario's team in Super Paper Mario. He even forgave 3 traitrors who betrayed him and joined Fawful. And he does compliment his minions when they genuinely do a good job. So yeah
@@cbfranco3307. Original only, first from catridge, now from New vintage n.e.s.!
Can't wait for your review of the Elements
I’m so Glad Disney didn’t get the movie, they probably would’ve put Mario in a dress or something weird like that 😂😂😂
Bro, mario slayed in that wedding dress I don’t wanna hear it
My only gripe before the movie released was the fact that illumination was who they worked with… the thought of the two most money hungry and soulless companies working together is crazy 💀
You Natural have The Well Actually Nerd Voice without trying
Could you make skit compilations? I love all your skits there really funny
20:07 blue shells go after the person that was in first at the time it was activated not who is currently in first
My friend hated the movie for the reason that in the final scene the super star lasted longer than in the games.
Mario having a normal voice works because if he had his voice from the games it would get pretty old after a while
"normal voice" 💀
I give this movie a 7/10 too. It's good, and it's a nice mindless fun time, pretty funny, lots of nostalgia, but the writing is pretty... meh. Also didn't like what they did with Peach and Luigi. Felt like they did Luigi dirty, and Peach didn't feel like Peach.. didn't like Peach's voice either tbh..... Toad also felt forced
Fair enough!
True true
I liked the Mario Movie, because it had a TON of little easter eggs and references for long-time Mario and Nintendo fans that did not need to be there, yet they chose to include anyway. Its basically eye-candy for Mario fans all the way through.
20:16 Actually, I think that is what happens when the blue shell is empty, like in the games. I think that the koopa can control who he blows up when he is in the shell
If I had one complaint I would say that it felt like I was watching a full version of all the trailers otherwise 9/10
WHATTTTT this movie is good but not THAT good
@@subneilycrespi7686 Or maybe it’s just his opinion
I feel like you could say this about literally every movie.
I was honestly impressed with Chris Pratt's performance in this movie. I don't know what people are talking about... Chris Pratt sounds exactly the same in every movie he's ever been in, and yet this is the first time where his voice actually kinda works (surprisingly enough) and he talks with an ever so slight accent that makes him sound a lot less like his usual generic voice.
title is a little misleading, it doesnt seem like the movie itself pissed you off but rather the reception of others on twitter :')
Dude, you summarized all my thoughts in one video
My main complaint when I watched the movie was just how fast-paced it was, some of the decisions the characters made and how they acted confused me.
I actually got annoyed at Twitter for the opposite reason, while I think this move is pretty good and is fun to watch, it does have some problems such as bad pacing and some odd character interactions for example. However Twitter likes to see this movie as the Holy Grail and believes it’s one of the best movies in history that beats out all the others, and while at first I didn’t care as much about them praising the movie. I started to get pissed when a lot of people starting hating on different movies such as saying they aren’t that good or the Mario movie beats it out by a long shot, along with Twitter attacking and harassing those who don’t see the movie as a 10/10 and had some complaints with it. I’m fine when people are talking good about a movie but don’t start slandering other people’s work or swearing at others who don’t share the same opinion as you just to make the thing you like look better, it helps no one.
Honestly peach’s voice was worse than mario’s. She sounds nothing like peach and we never got any scenes showing how comically sweet she is to the point where even her enemies are respectful of her
Honestly if they made her sound like the original, it would’ve been a little annoying.
@@SeasonalGFilms strongly disagree. I love every mario character’s original voice and the fact that the pokemon anime is so popular despite having far more obnoxious voices disproves people who claim, peach or mario’s original voices would have driven people away.
Just my two cents
@@firenze6478 I think the writers wanted Peach to be a more mature than in the games.
Also Pokemon movies, their based on the anime more so than the games.
@@firenze6478I’m sorry but no one wants to listen to game Mario and peaches voice for an hour
Especially Mario
I will say, you're right. The voice acting wasn't absolutely terrible. It was, as you said, fine. But for a big time movie for a franchise as big as Super Mario, and how its loved by so many people around the globe, I feel like we shouldn't hire professional actors just to set the bar at just "fine". Not only does this please the loyal and long time fans, but it also helps to pull new audiences into the vibrant world of Super Mario. I'm not saying Chris Pratt should never have been casted as Mario, and im sure voice acting is not easy, but just a little more enthusiasm. Sorry I went on a tangent but I'm just saying that "fine" shouldn't be where we set the bar for a Mega Mushroom sized franchise such as Mario.
I remember going to see the movie for the first time with my older brother at the theater. It was a great experience, I was never bored watching it.
Honestly, I think that illumination was actually tryna make a good movie with this
And they failed
Terrible pacing, bad voice acting, and no plot whatsoever? I beg to differ
@@Punkyyyyy I agree, I can tell it was a quick way to make a billion dollars and have everyone praise it even though it's not even close to being good
In fairness for Charile, his voice fits just fine for Luigi.
Seriously, who doesn’t like it when Beanie Brian posts a video?
90s movie: literal world building to compensate for the limitations of the time.
2020s movie: decent fan service.
The best scene in the movie is when says : f**k you Disney i don't belong to you
The movie is actually pretty good, i was nervous about the fact Illumination was the studio that made it but it turned out really good!
The only complain is that the pacing was really fast since an hour wasn't enough to cover every point with enough screentime, but maybe if they made a sequel (due to the yoshi egg ending) maybe this time they could slow down the pacing but anyways it's a good movie for killing time, not every movie needs to have a profund note anyways.
It's just safe dumb fun, and nobody hates dumb fun...
When my parents asked me about the movie I told them it was great for nintendo fans and more like average for non-Nintendo fans.
uh, blue koopa is in the first sequence of the movie? helloooo~?
The only thing that really PISSED ME OFF, is that they had so good content, and then... it was cut. For example the original Mario entering the mushroom kingdom soundtrack was perfect, but it was replaced with a generic track, but remixed, as if we hadn't enough remixes of the same tracks again and again and again and again and again and again. But the worse thing: they took "Drivin' me bananas" and replaced it with an ancient song. everyone has already heard thousands and thousands of times. What's so great about this song? Right, NOTHING, it's not original, it's overused and in my opinion not even good. Oh and btw: They cut the GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF, GET IT OFF part too :(. !--> Still my favourite movie of all time!
I don't get it... what do you mean with "the original Mario entering the mushroom kingdom soundtrack was perfect, but it was replaced with a generic track, but remixed"?
The Drivin' me bananas issue is fair. Thankfully there is an edit here in TH-cam that corrects that mistake
OMG they actually played Super Mario Movie Ad before video begins, Nice!
Let it go, Peaches, Let it go, Peaches, Baby Shark. Sh*t gets stuck in your head.
For the opening skit, I really wish Disney cared that much in real life
My only issue is that they could’ve done more with Luigi. I know he’s not the main character, but I expected more.
I think we all know that this film is very flawed, but we just can't help but love it.
It's pretty much all of us' guilty pleasure 🙏
@@goopoh💀
Lmao u speaking for everyone
I like Jim Carrey Eggman more than Jack Black Bowser. I mean as a whole, I like Bowser better than Eggman, but in movie form I like Eggman better. I think it's because Eggman in the Sonic movies gets more screen time and is just so much goofier. He also presents himself as more of a threat as he doesn't care about anyone and he interacts with Sonic for more than 5 minutes. He interacts with Sonic a lot in the movies. Now Bowser does have that one scene with Luigi, but Eggman got a lot more time with Knuckles in the 2nd movie
Another reason why the Sonic live-action animation hybrid movies are structured better as films than Mario. But the Mario movie is way more fun for sure.
@@BuizelCreamwheather it's more fun is debatable
@@jjb1908 Believe me, I suffered watching the Mario movie during my first watch xD
@@BuizelCream oh, I never suffered. I thought it was funny, just wished they could work out the pacing
The only thing that pissed me more than the movie were those toxic fans who bullied anyone who was just a little bit critical about it.
Fun fact that song bowser sings is nominated for a award for best original song
Wait what..
@stopmob1097 which is very well deserved because that songs slaps
@@AuraMasterKareem I mean it’s good
@stopmob1097 bro it's AWSOME
@@AuraMasterKareem eh
That rant at the start was spot on. Like Pratt's voice or not, people were acting like he killed their first born child
Seriously. And the fact that they were also using Charles Martinet’s name as a weapon against Chris was both disrespectful towards Pratt and Martinet. People really do owe Chris an apology. I rooted for Pratt from day 1.
You voiced that plumber well, Chris! F*CK THEM HATERS!
i gonna have to disagree while i did like the performance i can understand why some were skeptical
@@james656-k8e Not skeptical - I am referring to those who got the pitchforks out.
@@silashurd3597Plus, I will say, I love that people said stuff of the likes of "VAs are always shafted in Hollywood, Durr Hurr" when Chris Pratt was announced as the voice of Mario... Oh, but Anya Taylor Joy voicing Peach and Keegan Michael Key voicing Toad instead of Samantha Kelly? Jack Black voicing Bowser instead of Scott Burns or Kenny James? Totally fine and dandy, right? And the less I talk about Charlie Day voicing Luigi instead of Martinet, the better...
And where were these people when Ryan Reynolds played Detective Pikachu instead of Kaiji Tang or when Idris Elba played Knuckles instead of Travis Willingham or Dave B. Mitchell? Not that they did a bad job, but how convenient that it's only when it's Pratt as Mario instead of Martinet that they say that... Selective outrage, much?
(Sorry for the rant, just wanted to get that out of my system 😅)
Tbh I think the hate was fueled by the fact that Pratt is basic of all basic actors to pick and tbh the trailers made him sound like he was just doing it for a pay check and his very very minor fumble with the stomping koopas and pausing durring it made it worse it didn’t ruin the movie he did fine and the backlash probs made him re-record lines I think the wahoo was re-recorded I’m not sure I say the hate was 50% fair and the rest was toxic and unneeded harassment even I really dislike him (mostly due to my family hating him) i wouldn’t go harass him I mostly compared the voice to emmet which is just his voice but with Mario he has a small accent to it Chris having a basic voice for mario isn’t something to burn people over yes we could of had better we just have to deal with it and Chris did a perfectly fine voice it isn’t bad
