    My daughter is a HUGE yoshi fan (she wore her yoshi outfit to the theater) and was sad that yoshis only showed up briefly in the background. So the post-credit egg hatching scene really got her excited. We absolutely loved the rest of the movie as well though. We were all cheering and nudging each other the whole time when a little musical cue happened or we saw a sight gag. Our family had a blast.

    I'm not a big Mario fan, but I adored this movie.
    It doesn't have a deep story cause the whole point of Mario is so simple:
    Beat the turtle, save the princess. It's not gonna rival Shakespeare.
    But this movie was heartwarming and sweet and gave personalities to characters who have said all of 20 words in the last decade!
    I love this movie and I hope they expand on it in the future.

    This was a super wholesome review. I saw it last night and pretty much feel the same way about it. Cranky Kong is one of my favorites, and I was a little bummed with his dialog. I also thought Mario and Luigi's family seen however was really interesting and a cool "behind the scenes" view of what their life is like! Plus having OG Mario voice actor Charles Martinet as both Jump Man and Mario and Luigi's dad made me really happy :)
