So far there are two Super Mario Bros. Movies, a 2023 animated feature and a 1993 live action movie. Both are equally good in certain areas. However, this movie review is about the 2023 animated feature starring Jack Black as Bowser (well cast).
Fans of the iconic Super Mario Bros. video game franchise will be happy with the 2023- The Super Mario Bros. Movie. This time it is an animated format. As an avid fan myself, I couldn't contain my excitement when I heard the news. And let me tell you, this movie did not disappoint.
From the very beginning, I was transported into the colorful and whimsical world of the Mushroom Kingdom. The animation was top-notch, bringing to life our beloved characters like Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, and of course, the notorious Bowser. The voice acting was spot-on, with each actor capturing the essence of their respective character.
The storyline was engaging and had just the right amount of humor and heart. What truly made this movie shine were the numerous references to the video games that fans have come to know and love. From power-ups and warp pipes to familiar iconic sound effects, it was like a nostalgic trip down memory lane.
