Notable success from Super Mario movie
Super Mario Bros., which was released in 70 countries last Wednesday, grossed $377 million in its first week. However, the production, which reached 204.6 million dollars in the USA, 19.6 million dollars in the United Kingdom and Ireland, 14 million dollars in Germany and 12 million dollars in China, became one of the highest-grossing game adaptations. For those who don’t know, this record belonged to Sonic The Hedgehog 2, which previously grossed $141 million.
In addition, the transfer of the Super Mario character to the big screen dates back to many years. An animated movie based on the game first made its way to the box office in 1986. Then came the unpopular 1993 production of Super Mario Brothers. We can say that Super Mario Bros. was the first big-budget movie of the series.
Briefly, Super Mario Bros is about the adventure of two Brooklyn plumbers, Luigi and Mario Brothers. While the two brothers find themselves in a magical world while on the job, our main character, Mario, steps into a challenging adventure for his brother.
