'The Super Mario Bros. Movie' Will Be Impossible to Beat

Last week, at an early showing of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, the lights dimmed and the Nintendo logo glowed out over the audience. From the back, a toddler whose parents were probably their age when Mario first burst onto the scene shouted out "Nintendo!" It was a moment that cut through any debates that people might have been having about the film's quality. Ultimately, The Super Mario Bros. Movie is for the children. And the children turned out in force.
