Was The Super Mario Bros. Movie a good movie? ›

Super fun, goofy and no politics! Great movie to watch with the whole family! Whether you're a Mario Bros. fan already or simply want a good movie for movie night, it has something for everyone!

Super Mario Bros. (also known as Super Mario Bros.: The Movie) is a 1993 fantasy adventure film based on Nintendo's Super Mario video game series.

The Super Mario Bros Movie hit Netflix on December 3, 2023, and it has remained securely on the streaming platform's Top 10 ever since.

Mario is a brave and kind-hearted hero with a strong sense of justice, morality, and righteousness. He puts, more often than not, other people's needs before his own and he is willing to risk his life to save millions of others from the forces of evil. Mario will never give up on anyone, ever.

In addition to the violent scenes and scary visual images mentioned above, The Super Mario Bros. Movie has some scenes that could scare or disturb children aged 5-8 years. For example: Shortly after arriving in Bowser's lands, Luigi is chased by zombie-like, skeletal creatures with red glowing eyes.

Throughout the mainline series, the Mushroom Kingdom is under persistent attack from Bowser and his minions, and Peach's role is to be his kidnapping victim. Her age has never been officially confirmed, but it varies between mid-teens and early twenties.

Many have said that the movie is nothing more than a cluster of references. On top of this, many critics feel that the movie is missing key references to different games and characters. There seems to be a general feeling that the movie missed the mark with its fan service, while also overdoing it.

MPAA. Rated PG for action and mild violence.

So, Bowser is 34, and he has a 12-year-old son. Basically, he's your neighbor, that guy who's always trying to take control of the whole neighborhood by running the block party and bugging you about taking your trash bins in on time every week.

What animal is Bowser? ›

Bowser is the King of the Koopas, anthropomorphic turtles that inhabit the world of the Mushroom Kingdom. Bowser differs greatly from the rest of the Koopa clan, which consists mainly of bipedal tortoises.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie is available to stream on Netflix after leaving Peaco*ck in early December of 2023.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie held its world premiere at Regal LA Live in Los Angeles, California on April 1, 2023, with the cast and crew in attendance. It was released theatrically in the United States on April 5, 2023, and later in Japan on April 28, in both regular formats and in IMAX 2D and 3D.

This timeline shouldn't come as much of a surprise, considering that Illumination's parent company Universal has a deal with Netflix that sends their movies to the streaming service after a at least four months on Peaco*ck. That means Mario spent the minimum amount of time as a Peaco*ck exclusive.

The success of Super Mario Bros. can be attributed to the solidarity and simplicity of its Core Experience. At this point in time almost every game was about working in a finite playing space and getting a high score (a la Space Invaders or Pac Man).

Miyamoto went on to say that another aspect of Mario's popularity is that he “was created as a character within an interactive medium.” Had he been a comic book character, he may not have had the same staying power.

Nintendo's first mobile game, Super Mario Run, was enormously popular — but that doesn't mean it was a success for the company. During its most recent earnings report, Nintendo revealed that Mario Run has been downloaded 200 million times, 90 percent of which came from outside of Japan.
