Super Mario Galaxy: Directed by the duo that brought us the first film (Aaron Horvath and Michael Jelenic), The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is the highly anticipated sequel to its predecessor that released back in 2023, delivering smiles, laughter and fun to audiences of all ages. Our famous plumber duo is back, this time with higher stakes, bigger weapons and more side characters, but can they truly save the galaxy when faced with inter-dimensional threats?
Visuals, Voices & Nostalgia Shine in The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
The animation in this film is done to an exceptional standard, brimming with color and vibrancy that keeps you hooked and engaged throughout its 98 minute runtime. The background score flawlessly brings out the retro vibe of the games, allowing fans and kids to reminisce, fostering a nostalgic atmosphere.
Ultimately it feels like clips of the Mario games etched together in an attempt to bring out nostalgia and cheers from the audience. The film always keeps you at arm’s length, neither making you root for the characters or dismiss their actions, constructing very confused and incoherent character arcs.
