Mario Bros Galaxy
I've seen a few reviews and reactions for this film saying things like "it's really woke. The princess takes all the screen time. The bros are barely in it." These are lies. Even another popular woke film review site (that makes you pay for the full reviews) echoes these claims but they are false. This film has zero woke or cringe elements. It's just fun and entertaining and a good story that explores Peaches' background. Yes the other princess has powers and has a sequence where she fights but she becomes the captive and we barely see her for the entire film. Peach has a really cool battle sequence. The bros and Yoshi are the 3 main characters as far as screen time goes. The kids loved it and I love that I don't have to sensor these Mario movies.

Not Bad, It's Actually Very Good! BUT...
***WARNING!!! SPOILERS AHEAD!!!***
Remember how the original Mulan was so likeable because she was the typical 'underdog' that had to suffer and slowly learn until she became awesome despite her weaknesses?, and then on the live action she is just absolutely flawless from the beginning and she even has magical powers just because she is a woman? THAT'S exactly what Peach feels like: a god damn invincible character that doesn't even need power-ups to fight an army of thousands on her own. Even SHE is the one that experiences a launch star for the first time instead of Mario (WTF?). Even Queen Bee is girlbossing here, when in the game she is sweet AF. Feminist bullshit at its finest.
Now, to be fair, those feminist BS moments don't last that long, and as long as they are NOT happening:
- The movie has tons of fan service, and I mean TONS OF IT, especially for very old gamers (like me).
- The scenes with Mario & Luigi are super fun and enjoyable.
- The animation, colours, music and sound effects they used are exquisite, it looks and sounds AMAZING.
- It DOES have a damsel in distress.
- The action NEVER stops, and that's a very good thing. You NEVER get bored, it never feels like a too-long movie.
- Even though Peach feels invincible (facepalm), she still uses some of her Smash Bros. moves, like the hip attack, which is a very nice feminine touch.
- Speaking of Peach, females actually look like women, boobs and everything (which is more than I can say about that Hoppers crap), as they should look, without being oversexualized for kids at all.
- There are no LGBTQ characters except for Birdo, who is on screen for about 13 seconds and acts perfectly normal, who cares?
- No visual DEI that I can recall or any BS like that.
- Mario, Luigi, and Bowser (all men) openly express several times that they are attracted to women, as it should be.
- Whenever there are kisses on the cheek between males, or a slight acting-gay moment, it's 100 % clear that it is pure old-school comedy and NOTHING ELSE (Looney Tunes style).
- One of the main plot points is that people don't change, which is amazing, considering that woke propaganda is often 'be whatever you want to be', even if it makes no sense or is the complete opposite of what you actually are.
- The movie contains a 'Do a barrel roll!' moment, which on its own is just... absolutely... AWESOME.
I enjoyed it a lot at the age of 43. I've watched it twice, and it felt even better the second time since I was watching it with with a friend who also experienced the NES era. I'm planning to watch it again at least 3 more times. I could NEVER call this a kids' movie, though, it totally hits you with nostalgia, making you (a grown up) feel like a kid again.
