Is it really a surprise? With 281,442 admissions (out of 738 copies) in France for its first day, the film produced by Nintendo and directed by Illumination Studios is a real hit in our green regions. The figure is all the more impressive since the film did not benefit from any preview, anywhere, since the release was worldwide. In the United States, where the movies are released on Fridays, Super Mario Bros. The Movie has decided to be available two days earlier, on April 5 as well. In the country of Uncle Sam, the feature film is also off to a very good start since it has already garnered 31.7 million dollars for Wednesday alone. According to analyst estimates, Super Mario Bros. The Movie could end the week at over $150 million in North America alone. In France, with the Easter holidays looming, families will no doubt be flocking to cinemas to take their nostalgeek shot and discover a world not so far from video games. In any case, success seems assured, and some see it as a film that could exceed one billion if all the stars are aligned. Wait & see so…
