MGD Tim's thoughts - Super Mario Galaxy



The wacky adventures of Mario is back. They introduced more characters and more worlds, with a lot of vibrancy, thus the GALAXY in the title.

Even from the trailers, it gave me the impression that it lifts a lot of elements from all the Mario games. And really, they did so in the movie. In that perspective, don’t expect so much in terms of storyline, rather the story is simple and fast. But there’s still fun elements and lots of Easter eggs to spot if you are a Mario gamer.

So in summary, don’t go for the storyline. But go to enjoy everything that is fun about the Mario world.

MGD Tim's thoughts - GOAT

 



Typical underdog story of how a small (in many aspect) kid made a sizeable impact to the life of his hero, team and community.

It’s basically Zootopia + Space Jam, if I just be honest. If you are up for some crazy basketball shenanigans, inspired by Stephen Curry (who’s the producer of the movie) then get ready for it.

Sony Animation have been riding on huge wave, with success of Spiderverse movies and Kpop DemonHunter, but this doesn’t hit their height. Probably I expected more from the basketball hype. Still enjoyable though if you are looking for cartoon to watch with family.

MGD Tim's thoughts - HOPPERS


Pixar/Disney combo brings some hits and misses over the years. This right here, one of the best in recent years. 

Sure, in essence, it felt like Avatar. Yup, they even made that joke (in the trailer and movie) but certainly the storyline is way different than the blue folks of Avatar. If you are familar with We Bare Bears (honestly one of my fav cartoons), well, the movie is written and directed by the same person who is responsible for the series so you can expect good stories. At some point, it does feel like the series’ vibes. 

In fact, one of the characters (in the movie) is voiced by WBB Panda voice actor.

Movie is so heartfelt and fun. Well done to them for focusing on telling a fun yet meaningful story, instead of trying to push certain agendas. Hope they keep it that way. A lot of lessons on community and working together. Haha, it does sound like another Disney movie. *cough* HSM.

Definitely suitable for family movie outing. Definitely one of the enjoyable movie of 2026
