Mario, Luigi and Princess Peach embark on an adventure across the galaxy.

Critics Consensus

Packed with colorful world-building that's as frenetic as it is weightless, The Super Mario Galaxy Movie's visuals are often out of this world but the threadbare story ultimately loses its Milky Way.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is undoubtedly a visual assault—and whether that’s appealing or revolting is up to the individual—but there’s no denying the creativity and energy on display.

Given the first film's success and the fanbase it helped build for this sequel, you can't help but wonder why the instinct is still to go wider instead of deeper, louder instead of more heartfelt.

The voice acting is superb, the new characters are a delight, and it's a welcome escape.

This was never going to be a deeply serious film or even a game changer in the genre. But I can guarantee that if you are a Super Mario lover or are simply looking for a fun film for the whole family then you will not be disappointed.

As someone who finds pure adventure and many video game movies boring, "The Super Mario Galaxy Movie" is a pure popcorn movie that adults will want to see even if they do not have kids to entertain.

The movie was entertaining, but some of browser's scenes were a little too cringe for me. It felt like not enough time was made for the ending. But I loved all the characters that made a debut appearance.
