Now that I've played all of the other Tekken 4 was the first Tekken game I've ever played. Movie launches in Australian cinemas on 6 April 2023, on 7 April 2023 in the United Kingdom, and on 5 April 2023 in the United States.Tekken 4 was the first Tekken game I've ever played. The game’s plot being described as shallow by multiple critics may cause some reason for concern, but with enough charm and easter eggs, it should overcome this criticism for the majority of keen audiences. Movie will be a worthy ride, particularly for Nintendo fans. While early impressions generally tend towards positivity, as select audiences are usually invited to premieres and preview events, it appears The Super Mario Bros. Tessa Smith of Mama’s Geeky agreed that it was a ‘love letter’ to Nintendo fans, calling out the film’s inclusion of easter eggs, and dedication to Mario lore. This is a movie that you’re going to want to see a lot of times,’ Kit said. ‘ such a love letter to whole decades and decades of Mario. Kit & Krysta, the former of hosts of Nintendo Minute, claimed they loved the film and called it ‘incredible’. Many agree that the adaptation has more than justified its own existence with a fresh and delightful take on the world of Super Mario. ‘It’s a movie that is for Mario fans first, and despite a somewhat shallow narrative, is a blast.’įor many reviewers, the game’s narrative was not a particular bugbear – as it seems the thrill of adventure, and the imagination of the film’s design is enough to elevate The Super Mario Bros. It looks great but I was more bored & annoyed than entertained.’Īndré Segers of GameXplain was slightly more positive, but still somewhat critical of the game’s shallow narrative: ‘The Super Mario Bros movie is an utterly delightful thrill ride that is as joyful as it is magical,’ Segers said. A few solid scenes capture the spirit of the game but mostly it’s an overly goofy, bare-bones plot, filled w/ bad jokes & worse song choices. Germain Lussier of Gizmodo said: ‘I really wanted to like it but I did not. Movie, but the film clearly doesn’t feel like it needs to touch it, at least not yet.’ Elaborating on the plot, he said ‘They’re more like a series of contrivances to very, very quickly usher us into one colourful set piece after another,’ and ‘it doesn’t need any other reason to keep you there, because it knows what you came to get – a little Mario magic, a little nostalgia.’ While many agree that the film is wildly charming, and features some fantastic performances, particularly from Jack Black (Bowser) and Charlie Day (Luigi), dissenting voices have called it ‘goofy’ and labelled jokes in the film ‘bad’.Įdmond Tran of GamesHub said: ‘There’s definitely an inkling of something interesting in the broader narrative and ideas of The Super Mario Bros. It’s been described as a love letter to Nintendo fans, and has so far received high praise for its dedication to the Super Mario source material, and its many delightful easter eggs – although judgement on the film’s plot and humour has been relatively harsher. Movie has premiered to a largely positive reception, with early reviewers and critics praising the film’s fun and liveliness on social media.
