Critics Consensus

Packed with colorful world-building that's as frenetic as it is weightless, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie's visuals are often out of this world but the threadbare story ultimately loses its Milky Way.

The problem is not that it’s messy, but that it’s stultifyingly dull.

We all have a finite amount of time on this Earth, and I cannot think of a single reason why you should spend any of yours on The Super Mario Galaxy Movie.

I don’t think these movies necessarily reinvent this type of animation or anything but I do think they’re fun to watch. Again, it isn’t one I will rewatch repeatedly.

You could lose years of your life acquiring the gaming hours necessary to make sense of it all, or you could simply let the eye-candy wash over you. Or stay in the lavatory and read the graffiti.

Forget to those who gave those negative reviews, this movie are for Super Mario games fans only! The nostalgia hits with easter eggs and cameos. Watching it also on Dolby makes it a better experience immersing us into their world. It's a fun ride from start to finish. Definitely enjoyed this video game movie.

A bit boring and definitely dramatic. Better off watching it at home and seeing another film instead.

Mario Galaxy is a fun movie that is charming, has enjoyable characters, exponential world building and remains loyal to the Mario spirit of having simple story yet executing it sublimely. Will the kids love it? Absolutely. Will older Mario fans enjoy it? Without a doubt. Will Nintendo fans across the board adore it? THEY'LL CHERISH IT!
