A haunting look at grief, survival, and a mother’s quiet collapse in a world that never gave her room to fall.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie comes on the heels of its billion-dollar grossing predecessor, and seeks to do absolutely nothing other than repeat its success. In this, the film is eminently effective.
