The Super Mario Bros. Movie brings Nintendo’s most iconic characters to the big screen in a vibrant, high-energy animated adventure. Directed by Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic, the film turns the classic Mario universe into a fast-paced story filled with nostalgia, humor, and explosive world-building.

Released in 2023, the movie became an instant hit with fans, families, and gamers worldwide — finally giving Mario the blockbuster treatment he has deserved for decades.

IMDb Score: 7.0/10

Review

From the very first scene, the movie feels like a joyful explosion of Nintendo nostalgia. Everything from the sound effects to the character animations and world design screams “Mario!” — but in the best, most lovingly crafted way.

Mario and Luigi’s brotherly dynamic carries the emotional core of the story. Mario is determined, stubborn, and brave, while Luigi is anxious but genuinely heartfelt. Their bond gives the movie grounding even as the plot bounces through wild, colorful worlds.

The world-building is one of the film’s biggest strengths. The Mushroom Kingdom, Jungle Kingdom, and Bowser’s lava-filled domain are all packed with details that longtime fans will immediately recognize — power-up blocks, floating platforms, warp pipes, and classic enemy designs.

But what really makes this movie pop is the sheer creativity in the action sequences. Driving a kart across Rainbow Road, battling Koopas, and using power-ups in inventive ways make the film feel like watching a video game come alive.

Bowser, voiced with comedic flair, steals scenes with his dramatic personality and unexpected musical moments. Peach is also given more agency and strength than in many earlier iterations, standing out as a leader rather than a damsel.

If there’s a weakness, it’s pacing. The movie moves fast — sometimes too fast. Some emotional beats fly by quickly because the film is always rushing to the next joke, the next reference, or the next action set piece.

Still, the pure fun and energy make up for it. Kids get the humor and color; adults get nostalgia and game references; gamers get Easter eggs everywhere.

Final Thoughts

The Super Mario Bros. Movie is pure entertainment — bright, chaotic, and bursting with charm. It doesn’t try to be deep or dramatic; it aims to be a celebration of Mario’s universe, and it succeeds with flying colors.

If you love Nintendo, animation, or just want a feel-good adventure, this film delivers exactly what it promises.
