We are following the trail because it promises, and that is Super Mario Bros: The Movie It is, a priori, everything that any fan of the king of platforms would like to find in a film adaptation of the character and his particular adventures. In other words, an impeccable visual section and references to a plethora of video games, which are not few after practically four decades on the crest of the wave.
Well, everything we’ve seen so far Super Mario Bros: The Movie He has not left if not good omens in this regard. The best omens, go; From its first announcement to the presentation of the main characters and the final trailer that concerns us, going through all the crumbs that have been falling in between, the good vibrations have been maintained.
It is obvious that a film of this type can hardly aspire to anything more than to satisfy the fans of the franchise and guarantee a minimum of entertainment. But it is that more is not asked of him: that he respect the essence of Nintendo games as much as possible and that he is not a bodrio. We have examples that something like this can be achieved and they are recent, too. Without going any further, there are the two films of sonic.
However, Super Mario Bros: The Movie It is another song first, due to the disastrous reference that exists in the real image film shot in the nineties of the last century; and second, pulling the same thread, because adding a voice and plot to a character whose games have always been the paradigm of excellence in their genre without the need for another element is one thing, but getting out of the framework provided by animation is quite another.
It does not give the feeling that what has been done with sonic could serve to carry rigorously Super Mario Bros: The Movie to the big screen, and in that aspect we can be very calm: as long as what the trailers show is as it is on the screen, it is already a victory. Add to this the thousand and one references that have been appearing and you already have two.
It only remains, then, that Super Mario Bros: The Movie It is entertaining, for Nintendo to definitively remove the thorn that has been stuck in it for almost thirty years, worth the redundancy (on May 28, 1993, infamy was released in theaters). And for the rest of us to enjoy, of course. Whether it is a success or not, we will see. But at least it is a quality product. What less!
We will know from next April 5, release date scheduled for the international premiere of Super Mario Bros: The Movie, after suffering a slight delay with respect to what was initially planned (March 31 was the first date announced). Without further ado, below you can see the final trailer of Super Mario Bros: The Movie.
