RT score is now out, it’s once again being shitted on by critics (44% this time, even lower than the first movie), because of course it is. Just reading snippets of bad reviews, they once again went into a Mario movie expecting Shawshank/Citizen Kane/LotR, which is so obtuse, it’s not even funny. It’s fucking Mario. Like come the fuck on, dude.
It’s okay to turn your brain off every now and then. I don’t expect deep character studies/arcs while watching Commando, Expendables, Hard Target, etc. Obvious reasons. These movies need to be looked at from a “is it fun to watch?” lens, not the “is it high art?” lens they’re clearly reviewing it from.
