The trailer for Super Mario Bros. Movie starts with Mario, voiced by Chris Pratt, facing off against Donkey Kong in a massive gladiator ring-like setting. In a move similar to the one seen in Super Smash Bros., Kong beats Mario to a pulp, while Peach, Toad, and Cranky Kong (Fred Armisen) watch.Next, one can see Luigi, voiced by Charlie Day, being taken prisoner by the evil villain Browser (Jack Black). Browser shows off his army and proceeds to explain that he is &quot;about to rule the world...&quot; However, there is only person, Mario, standing in his way.In the next part, Browser makes his move to take over Mushroom Kingdom in his flying fortress while Princess Peach grabs a battle-axe and leads an army of colored toads to come up with a plan to defend themselves. She is also seen training Mario on a course with obstacles similar to the ones seen on Super Mario, like Bullet Bills and Falling Platforms.Peach then informs Mario of a &quot;huge universe&quot; with a &quot;lot of galaxies&quot; that are counting on them to stop Browser. The trailer concludes with characters racing on the iconic Rainbow Road in Mario Kart style.&quot;I'm so excited!&quot;: Netizens praise new Super Mario trailor despite some criticism against itInternet users took to social media to comment on the recent trailer.

Movie second trailer garnered mostly positive responses from the online audience, there were some internet users who were not happy with it. Most naysayers were disappointed with Chris Pratt voicing Mario, a common criticism that was seen after the first trailer. Some also were unhappy with Peach's new look and characterization.Here are a few criticisms seen on Twitter:Bovine Joni@TrucktubMario moves looks legit great outside of Pratt’s voice. I don’t even dislike him as a voice actor. Loved him in Lego Movie and thought he was good in Onward. This sounds like Chris Pratt doing a bad accent - not a character.Mario moves looks legit great outside of Pratt’s voice. I don’t even dislike him as a voice actor.
