The Super Mario Bros. Movie (2023)
Great visual flex, fun for everyone.
When I first saw the R* T* score, I thought to myself, "That can't be right." Sure, movie critics are movie critics, but it's unfair that a low score could potentially stop audiences from seeing this fantastic movie.
I grew up a Nintendo kid. I grew up with the Mario games. My delight was immeasurable when it was first announced that an animated movie was in the works. Despite the negative reactions to the cast announcements, I held out hope. And after seeing the movie on it's first day out, I'm glad my belief was not misplaced.
People will say that this is merely a flex of Illumination's skill, visually. This movie was a sight to behold on the big screen, many "Blink and you'll miss it" moments. But that's not all the movie has to offer. The writing is good, never a dull moment. Brilliant voice direction. The cast completely transformed and became their characters. Story-wise, its simple, easy to follow, with some heartfelt moments in there. It's unfair for people to demand so much depth from a movie that is mainly targeted towards kids and Nintendo/Mario fans.
The main objective with this movie was for people to have fun watching it. And I did. And you will too. So go see it!
How I Met Your Father: Rewardishment (2023)
we're getting there...
This perfectly captured some of that essence that we loved in the original How I Met Your Mother. When i started this episode, i didn't know i was actually going to be laughing my a** off. It's one of those episodes wherein the plot involves all of the characters, instead of the split storylines. This makes it feel like we're hanging with the gang, like we're part of it.
The humor is starting to feel more natural. We're getting to know the characters more, which helps with our reception of their jokes and comic. After finishing this episode, i really thought to myself "we're getting there... the show is finding it's footing..."
i hope more people give this show a chance. This episode proved that there's something special here.
