Let’s-a-go! Running a little late on this one, but we finally had the chance to watch The Super Mario Bros. Movie recently, and of course we had to join Collateral Cinema for an At the Movies episode, so here we are! How well does Illumination and Nintendo’s first attempt at a feature film starring the beloved Italian plumbers and friends since 1993 (a movie we also featured on the podcast a few seasons back) work? Is it well-written? How are the performances, headed by Chris Pratt and Charlie Day as the titular brothers, as well as Anya Taylor-Joy, Jack Black, Keegan-Michael Key, and Seth Rogen? How many possible references and Easter eggs to the franchise can they cram into a 92-minute animated picture? Take the Warp Pipe with Beau and Ash into the Mushroom Kingdom, as we answer these questions and more. Also, stay tuned for Collateral Cinema’s Season Finale on Corvette Summer, which should be out very soon, as well as more At the Movies features before we launch Season Seven in October. Wahoo!
