Here are some of my replacement lines for: "Looks like he ate the wrong mushroom" 1. "Not so big anymore, Mr. Tough Guy" 2. "Performance anxiety is a real thing, Princess" 3. "DK, Jungle Beat that shrimp!"

[@Real_temmie_undertalo]

First and Second stand out, but adding dialogue there was just not good... I liked the funny "wrong mushroom" joke because it's quite nice for kids to just laugh at, but adding any dialogue there that's not a gasp from peach/toad is a bit unnecesary, regardless of what the line might be...

[@crayonjared]

​@@Real_temmie_undertalosorry I'm confused, they're not adding a line they're replacing one, idk if I'm missing something

[@Real_temmie_undertalo]

@@crayonjared Oh, I'm sorry, I might have worded it wrong. What I meant is that, even with a replacement, not having a line in the first place would have had a better result. But really liked the 1st and 2nd replacements, they fit well

[@BigGoronSword]

@@Real_temmie_undertalo True. Ngl, I haven't even seen the movie

"You ain't leaving this Donkey Kong Country in one piece!" "It's time that the Donkey Kong Country Returns!" "*brrrrrrr* Is it just me, or is there a Tropical Freeze in this Donkey Kong Country?"

[@Luna-Fox]

This actually makes me wanna see the movie again; all that Twitter fanboy anger over the reviews put me off of my initial excitement.

[@animalanimation5110]

This video is a great example of the "everyone is wrong and I'm right" syndrome.

My opinion: Good 👍 Your opinion: Bad 👎

[@bbbeththedork]

I loved the movie! I was smiling the entire time

[@dominicvega1678]

Me too

[@LordTylerBluGunderson]

Same here. It was an absolute masterpiece in my personal opinion.😎🤙

[@ewskiman3907]

I think people were being way too harsh on chris pratt leading up to the film. His voice acting work so far has been solid and based on the cast it was clear the directors werent going for a traditional cast

[@LordTylerBluGunderson]

Exactly. I always had faith in Chris Pratt and I exactly knew what the writers were going 4 in this movie the moment Chris Pratt was casted. They were going 4 a Brooklyn accent Mario and Luigi. The hate Chris Pratt got leading up 2 this movie was absolutely pathetic and uncalled for.

[@vanillajellyfish]

​@@LordTylerBluGunderson granted they chose like the worst lines to show in the trailers in hindsight

[@paperluigi6132]

@@vanillajellyfish true. But him doing the trademark voice in the commercial first thing was a really great way to show that he CAN do the iconic voice.

[@hannahsnow7020]

now i wanna see the mario movie, which is something i didn't think i'd ever say

[@slickshewz]

No, they're pretty much spot on. 5-6/10 is what it deserves. It's not great, and it's not terrible. It was about as "meh" as a movie can be.

[@johnnymind4151]

Couldn't agree more, if you're a Mario fan to any degree you, the more the better, you'll definitely enjoy this movie thanks to the attention to detail and love for the Mario series, not just the games, and even some other Nintendo games!

[@Duotine98]

Id would watch in theaters but they won't let me bring my gamer diapers 😢

[@enderethan144]

This is what want more of on KZbin, more movie reviews with no toxicity or hate just pure positivity. Why must we live in a world filled with hate? I haven’t seen the movie yet but I can’t wait to so do not spoil it.

[@julienherard414]

Just know that this movie doesn't disappoint. I'm sure you'll enjoy it very much. The critics must have been on their phones the whole time or are straight up biased.

[@Pink_pr1ncess]

@@julienherard414 I agree. I haven’t seen the movie, but these film reviewers seem to love to bash movies just for the fun of it or to hop on a ongoing smear campaign. It’s honestly irritating

[@jilp2002]

​@@Pink_pr1ncess your duck sucking is irritating

[@wafflesarenicetoeat]

@@julienherard414 Just because 43% critics rated it rotten doesn’t imply they hate it. Several of these critics seemed like they were on the borderline of rating it good and bad and others had good reasons to rate it Rotten, like the lack of plot or how short the movie was. There are some that obviously have bias however.

[@wafflesarenicetoeat]

@@julienherard414 A little more than 50% is still good. This means the critics’ consensus is that the movie is mid though. It’s slowly increasing however. Rn it’s 57%, rising from a 48%.

[@kai_lopez9855]

I just saw the movie and I loved it my mom was so happy the entire time she turned into a child

[@RobertoRafaf]

Meh, the reviews aren't wrong, they are pretty spot on.

[@HoverBot]

Man, I was sitting here waiting for the joke, or the tone shift. But it turns out the joke is that this is just a very earnest 7 minute review of the Super Mario movie.

[@jumugama]

Since I literally JUST saw this movie, real talk it was actually really good!

[@LindseyLouWho]

For real, I liked the nostalgic music and the gag on the radio at the end directed toward Pratt. There was a lot there that was of substance. Yeah, didn't expect -this- out of Illumination. A tier kids' movie, S tier Mario

[@LordTylerBluGunderson]

@@LindseyLouWho I always liked Illumination movies, but this movie was on a whole other level. Fantastic movie from start to finish. I don’t really recall the gag on the radio. Was it a Guardians of the Galaxy reference when they played Mr Blue Sky that you were referring to? Other than that, yeah, this movie was a frickin’ masterpiece.

[@spazzboi]

I literally smiled during the entire movie. I'm such a Super Mario fanboy, and the movie was just chock full of both references and charm. The Super Mario Bros movie is literally the best piece of cinema ever made.

[@94jmbottaro]

5.5/10 is not a bad review. It perfectly reflects what the movie is. A slightly above average film about a video game franchise. 0 story, fast paced action and a gazillion easter eggs. Its enjoyable if your familiar with mario and nintendo. And thats about it.

[@thebatman4279]

Finally, somebody with a rational take and not just 'OMG IT MADE ME FEEL LIKE KID AND IT COLOURFUL AND THEY DID THE THING FROM GAME 11/10!!!!!"

[@Jonnycrs]

Man the end credits scene was so lit fam. I didnt expect SOnic to show up, AND I DEFINATELY didnt expect to see sonic tounge Mario so damn hard.

[@pacifistcowboy]

it’s honestly great that you’re genuinely talking about how you really felt about the movie instead of just shitting on it for lols, i have high hopes for this movie now that even you couldn’t talk badly about it!

[@JoeVirella]

Just saw it with my family. This thing was an absolute blast and I can’t believe that critica score. It was heartfelt, funny and just freaking beautiful.

[@Pon-PonG9]

Critics are very hard to take seriously these days tbh. Like I loved the new D&D movie but it doesn't have amazing reviews from critics.

[@totallynotclickbait6114]

Nowadays dont even bother with critic reviews, just look at audience scores. Because 99/100 times the critic score is the opposite of the audience score and the audience score is, again, accurate 99/100 times

[@nexus_keeper]

5:40 there’s also a scene with that same Yoshi egg too.

[@eyahyo]

Surprised that this isn't a joke video but it was a good review, thanks jack

[@zombiecombo7441]

The piano scenes were golden. As a muscisian, bowsers piano playing and vocals were absolutley beautiful, it was literally my favorite part! 😁👍

[@Tulip_bip]

i can't lie, watching other people gush about this film as much as i did makes me so happy lmfao

[@noahgrkovic4769]

I loved when Mario said meow, when sonic showed up, complained that he copied him, and they did the famous makeout clip

[@TadeshiKP]

Now you're making me convinced to watch it.

[@LordTylerBluGunderson]

Plz do. It’s absolutely fantastic.
