Internationally, the movie earned about $68 million on day one, showing solid global appeal. Despite mixed reviews, audiences are flocking to see the colorful, family-friendly adventure, proving Nintendo’s films remain a box office powerhouse.
This hasn’t been released in my city, yet, but ever since the trailer got released my kid has been pestering me about watching movie on theater. Hopefully, they will release soon. I never was interested in Mario but my kid loves it.
As a huge gamer and having grew up playing Mario games and still playing Mario games now on my Switch when I have the time, this is a movie I definitely want to go and see when I can and I know my kids also want to see it.
I am excited about this movie. It is not yet in my location, but I won’t mind spending time to see this movie because as a kid many years ago, I had amazing time playing Mario games.
