"We stepped in from another medium and did our best to help energize the film industry. And yet the very people who are supposed to champion the film industry are the ones being so negative; it's truly baffling."
"On GameSpot sister site Metacritic, The Super Mario Bros. Movie has a metascore of 46 compared to a 37 for The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. A similar difference is reflected on Rotten Tomatoes."
"The Super Mario Bros. Movie scored a mighty A rating with its sequel getting an A- from fans. While critic reviews for both Mario animated movies didn't land that high, the movies have proven to be enormous successes at the box office."
Shigeru Miyamoto expressed confusion over the negative critical reception of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie, stating it was harsher than that of The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

Despite the criticism, both films have achieved significant box office success, with The Super Mario Bros. Movie grossing $1.36 billion and The Super Mario Galaxy Movie over $750 million. Audience scores for both films were notably higher than critic scores, indicating a disconnect between critics and fans.
