The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

Tough Draw Below average in every round
2026 · Family, Fantasy, Comedy, Adventure, Animation · Michael Jelenic, Aaron Horvath

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie loses more than it wins in every round — and 40% across 93 matchups is well below the 50% that would mean just holding even. Built on the Mario film that turned bright video-game chaos into an all-ages hit, this one reaches for the Galaxy games, among the most beloved Nintendo ever made. For family night the pitch is easy fun for the youngest kids, with the kind of buried game references that keep nostalgic parents grinning. It ranks behind the other Michael Jelenic film tracked here.

Synopsis

Having thwarted Bowser's previous plot to marry Princess Peach, Mario and Luigi now face a fresh threat in Bowser Jr., who is determined to liberate his father from captivity and restore the family legacy. Alongside companions new and old, the brothers travel across the stars to stop the young heir's crusade.
