It’s not even so bad it’s good like the first Mario Brothers was. There’s this strange tertiary connection to the source material like someone was explaining the game to a writer who had never played the game and the director had their assistant read them the script. Weird weird choices were made. Like I can’t believe Im saying this but, that was the blandest delivery of “I’ll lick your spine” I’ve ever heard.
That’s a really good observation. I don’t think a longer movie would’ve helped but if they could’ve explored the characters more in a season? I think that would’ve been much better, also slimming the scale down to just a few missions and boss fight I think would’ve been much better. I remember some of those mid to late game areas lasting me an hour and a half and being very cinematic.

Do you think they wanted a TV show and were forced to slim it down to a movie? I only saw the trailer but it seemed completely unfocused.
