Finally watched the Mario movie. It was very fun but I guess Miyamoto really did not allow them to write a story or make scenes longer than the timer in Super Mario Bros. You can tell that in some scenes the movie creators wanted to put in more exposition but it got cut or shot down. The movie is entirely explained through what happens on the screen, almost like slapstick.
Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, probably his best performance. Jack Black as Bowser? Somehow perfect.
I expected a Marvel type film with Nintendo characters but the movie is far more unique, applying the no nonsense Super Mario game design to movies.
Meanwhile Disney/Pixar fired the woman who saved the company with a Toy Story 2 backup all those years ago.
