Just got back from my second screening and it’s still just delightful. My takeaways:
-The Brooklyn scenes might be my favorite in the movie. The opening is incredibly strong.
-Pacing is definitely too quick but it is breezy and low stakes and an easy watch. second viewing I noticed certain scenes feel majorly chopped. Wouldn't be surprised if there's lots of deleted scenes/a director's cut that stretches the length. But I don't think 90 minutes works to the movie's detriment though. The cast, visuals, and music are all GREAT, and it's a compliment when I say that I really want to just see more of it. I wanna see these characters fleshed out even more. I can absolutely see WHY they went this way though. Gets the most people in the seats and it's better for the kiddos.
-Speaking of the music, the score is wonderful, and while I love the interpretations of the themes they used, I'm more excited for sequels and reference material and how those themes get adapted.
-Licensed music still gets under my skin, especially after listening to the score on Spotify. Very unnecessary addition that wreaks of corporate know-nothings making a bad decision.
-Bowser is the standout character but Mario & DK's rivalry is pushing DK to a close second for me. I really loved how they wrote him with all of his insecure bravado.
-Mario & Luigi's chemistry really works. Again, the first 20 minutes of the movie where it's basically a slice of their lives; I could've watched a whole 90-minute movie about just that.
-Peach's character is great. Took another viewing to notice her more dainty qualities were kept intact in addition to her being seasoned and confident.
-I feel very confident saying that Charles Martinet voices Mario's dad. He sounded like Wario honestly lol so I figure it's him. Idk if he's credited.
