The Super Mario Bros. Movie (April 7th UK)

Recommended Posts

I had fun while watching it. Didn't enjoy it as much as the GF and friend we went with. 6/10.

Even with the common misguided write off that it's "for kids" (as if they can't appreciate a good narrative).

Man, I hate that notion. It's no excuse. Plenty of Kids movies can hit just as hard as any other movie. There's a damn good reason why Lilo & Stitch is my favourite Disney movie, and it isn't just because of wacky alien hijinks, it's because it's a relatively realistic depiction of the issues families can face with child services.

That movie's great! I wanna watch it again now.

A kids film doesn't even have to be deep to be good. My favourite animated film is Megamind - the plot isn't anything deep or meaningful, but it keeps you entertained and guessing all the way through.

It's a wonderful film. Got my niece into it so when my mom and I went to Hawaii recently we had to tell her Stitch was on holiday to stop her asking to join. But it does have a really nice message about made family. 

And I found out recently there's a manga where Stitch lands in fuedal Japan and I need to read that.
