wait, so people come to watch Mario and expect there is a plot? From Mario franchise? Are we talking about the same Mario that we all know? Since when Mario has a deep story or a plot? If it's about Zelda or Final Fantasy, yeah, I can understand the frustration, but this is MARIO. The game is literally: come and save princess, go in castle, ah, the princess is kidnapped again into another castle from 1-1 -> 1-4 -> etc. And through multiple worlds, yay, you save the princess, and next year another Mario game is released, and ta-da, the princess is kidnapped again, go save her. People really expect to make sense out of Mario film? Huh? Even the writers make fun of Mario's world by adding lines: bricks are floating? Don't these critics see that? This movie is dedicated to their fans and kids. You don't need to understand anything, just enjoy it. P.s.: as a normal office worker (and I believe most of us are), I appreciate this movie. It brought me childhood memory without needing to think. Do you know how hard it is after working from 9 to 5 everyday, and you can enjoy just a simple movie on weekend without making me questioning my life or any moral decisions that I have made? Just pure entertainment, and that's what I need.
If I’m going to give an hour and a half of my time to something, it should make me think. I didn’t like that only one character had any character development at all. I liked that Luigi finally showed some courage there at the end, and they progressively stomped Bowser. That was another thing, the climax wasn’t a climax. It didn’t have much tension to it at all. Just some fire and then Boom Mario and Luigi proceeded to win. There were points that I enjoyed, but I don’t think I’ll ever willingly give time to watch this again. Also I am an office worker as well. 8 to 4:30 each weekday. I like the idea of a movie that gives me something to ponder. I like something that changes the way I see the world. This movie did none of that. Not terrible by any means, but quite forgettable.
I think one thing that pushes viewers away from Disney is that many of their modern movies forcefully inject real world social issues into their plots. Whether the viewer agrees or disagrees with the issue presented, people want to go to a movie to escape from this world. The mario movie did that. My friends and I left and almost immediately said, “it was great to not have a blatant agenda blasted at us throughout the movie” But that’s just my opinion, anyway
100% agree with you i mentioned something similar in my disney video a while back.they so blatantly push certain narratives and agendas onto you and it takes so much away from the viewing experience
@@theshowstopperR i agree as well, look at some of movies i like Sonic movie 1and2 Mario movie Puss in boots the last wish Starwars 1-6 Because they all escape reality
some point in the last decade or so movies changed and it became more about the message behind the movies instead of entertaining the audience believe there is a place for important messages in movies but it has to be done right.where right now in mainstream media its done so lazily that its just disgusting
At this point it doesn't matter if a movie is good or not what matters is what's gonna make our content over-lords at Disney more money. It seems like we can't just have a fun movie anymore everything has to have a deep story with complex characters. We can't just have fun movies about an Italia guy saving his brother from a spiky turtle
I have some points that I enjoyed and many that I didn’t like. I enjoyed seeing Mario try so many times to finish the obstacle course. It acknowledged how frustrating it can be to try over and over again and never get anywhere. I loved this movie’s attention to detail was awesome. Like Bowser dropping Luigi’s mustache hair was a tiny detail I think the animators put in despite it being likely to go unnoticed. I also loved the Blue Star. It made me laugh every time I didn’t like that only one character had any character development at all. Character development is something that makes or breaks a movie for me, and when No one changed at all in this movie, it was a let down. I gave an hour and a half to a movie full of static characters. One static character I can stand, especially when it’s within character. Like it’s someone really stubborn or narcissistic. However this movie showed no change in characterization. Only a change in situations. Another thing that bothered me was the climax, because for an action movie, it wasn’t very climactic. It didn’t have much tension to it at all. Just some fire and then Boom Mario and Luigi proceeded to win using the Star. There were points that I enjoyed, but I don’t think I’ll ever willingly give time to watch this again. This movie did none of that. Not terrible by any means, but quite forgettable.
Critics and studios have just lost touch with what general audiences are looking for nowadays. The past 3 or so years of Hollywood have given us nothing but stinkers trying to push some political agenda. So a movie like the Mario movie that doesn’t shove messaging down our throat, doesn’t take itself too seriously, and doesn’t try too hard to create some complex groundbreaking narrative is really a breath of fresh air that we’ve all been looking for. The numbers speak for themselves, making over 1 billion dollars in about a month or so shows that if you give audiences what they want and nothing more, you can still create smash successes. Studios follow the money more than anything, so after seeing how successful the Mario Movie was they are certainly going to revert back to the formula of just creating a fun movie that all people can enjoy, regardless of age or political views. All in all, LESS IS MORE especially in modern day Hollywood
idk maybe they shouldnt have made it mid then acting like ppl hate it cause its not "woke" is a pretty dumb mindset. Ppl didn't like it cause they didn't I don't see why this is a big issue at all.
To be honest, everyone is a critic, you and me. It gets very toxic because people state that this film is made FOR THE MARIO FANS, but when a critic who is openly not a Mario fan says they did not enjoy the film, they get criticized? Do people want critics to lie just because the fans like the film?
i see what your saying and there definitely is some truth to it.i just feel like for people who are top critcs to be so out of touch with a movie so huge is crazy to me.
@@theshowstopperR people have to realize critics and the regular audience are going to have very different tastes in film. Whenever a regular moviegoer goes to a film in theaters, a critic probably has already gone 4 or 5 times to see a different movie, if not more, watched maybe 3 different streaming releases and possibly attended a film festival/event. Them being "out of touch" with a movie so huge doesn't have to be disingenous, would you say the Transformers and Fast and Furious films deserve to get great ratings just because they make huge numbers at the box office? The same goes for the Mario movie. If you're an average blockbuster moviegoer, your opinion is gonna be reflected by another average blockbuster moviegoer, not by critics. That's why audience scores exist too.
this video is WRONG. ur saying this movie is a crowd pleasing movie that all the fans will love which is true, but it doesn’t mean from a critics point of view this movie sucks. because it is a very shitty movie compared to what an actual good movie is. like puss in boots 2022
puss in boots is definitely a better movie from a story and premise wise in my opinion to.but what the critics are doing is tearing the movie apart and calling it the worst movie illumination has ever made even tho from the start the movie was never intended to be a deep well thought out story.so shiting on the movie because it doesnt meet your standard of a good movie to me is a bad look when you call yourself top critcs.
@@theshowstopperR ya sure it succeeded in what it was trying to do but just because they made the movie well and really didn’t have a lot of flaws in it. but when you have the safest and most bland movie ever, even with no flaws it’s still pretty mid. also it’s prob not the worst movie ever it’s just not good

idk maybe they shouldnt have made it mid then acting like ppl hate it cause its not "woke" is a pretty dumb mindset. Ppl didn't like it cause they didn't I don't see why this is a big issue at all.
fair
The Mario movie is just pure fun. It’s an absolute blast to watch in spite of its flaws. I guess critics just don’t wanna have fun.
lol..trully was the best animated movie since puss in boots.!!
Going forward Nintendo movies should treat film critics the same as Kotku

so modern critic expect to send a message toward audience.
the only message they sent was that they are completely out of touch.😂
I enjoyed this film and personally I would say its almost as good as turning red.
It’s way better than Turning Red even though I think Turning Red is a masterpiece but there’s no comparison
