Super Mario Movie's 'sensational' box office takings defy poor reviews
By Ian YoungsEntertainment & arts reporter
The new Super Mario Bros Movie has broken Box Office records, scoring The Most successful global opening of All time for an animated Film .
The Family Film - Hollywood 's second version of The Hit Nintendo game - took $377m (£303m) around The World in its first Five Days on release.
That overtook The previous record of £358m (£288m) held by Frozen 2 .
" The numbers are sensational, " noted analyst David A Gross, Who Said it would " easily be The #1 flick of 2023".
In The Super Mario Bros Movie, The moustachioed Italian plumber is voiced by Chris Pratt , while Jack Black plays fire-breathing villain Bowser.
It left many critics cold, with it's " just another soulless ploy to sell us merchandise" and calling it " tedious and flat in All senses".
He added that it was " a disappointment to match The live-action version in 1993" - a reference to The Infamous original adaptation starring Bob Hoskins .
But many fans seem to disagree, with The 56% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes eclipsed by The 96% audience score. Even " The critics are so disconnected from reality! "
Crowds " didn't seem to care about so-so reviews" .
The Film broke other records, including The best-ever opening for A Movie based on a video game and The Top opening of 2023 So Far , She Said .
Comscore analyst Paul Dergarabedian told The outlet: " This is one of The biggest Box Office over-performances in recent memory and is absolutely shattering All pre-release projections. "
Post-pandemic Box Office fearsthat The Film " crushed already-high expectations" while it " pulled off a thunderous bow which shows The theatrical demand for family titles at a time when Hollywood executives are concerned about The depth of supply lines as The World emerges from The pandemic".
Global Box Office figures for 2022 were 35% down on pre-Covid levels.
Reflecting on Super Mario's takings, " Are family movies Back - All The Way Back , to The degree that Hollywood can Once Again count on them as relative sure things?
" Studio executives and movie theatre owners were practically doing cartwheels over The weekend while shouting, 'Yes!'"
