Effect is good, it really makes me feel like to be in the scene. However, plot is little bit tedious. It's kind of like watching a game being played, mission after mission without decent transition. Not recommended for the people who haven't touched the game(like me). But I believe it surely does add a lot of classic elements of the game into it like the super cubes, car-racing and the Mushroom Kingdom filled with game. By the way, Princess Peach riding the motorcycle is as well a little highlight. An appeal to the modern aesthetics? If you are a fan of the game, it can be a huge bonus I guess.
