Thoughts on every movie I've ever seen.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)

Directed by Aaron Horvath, Michael Jelenic, Pierre Leduc

Starring Chris Pratt, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Day

Author

A light-hearted, faithful story with lots of homages to the franchise. Good characters, fun voices, and great music, with lots of familiar themes thoughtfully reworked to fit scenes.

Pratt does this stuff with ease, though maybe he wasn’t given enough free reign here. He’s not hilarious. Anya Taylor-Joy gives Peach a nasal cuteness.
