It was mostly woke free except for one thing that has been happening so long none of us even notice it any longer. The female lead is a strong, smart, confident character while the male lead is sort of a bumbler. And Marios brother? Total incompetent. Even the bad guy is a love sick moron.
Peach is a bit girl bossy, but she grew up in that world and our environments shape us.
Luigi has always been incompetent and scared, and its his bravery that he ends up pulling out in his games (e.g. Luigi's Mansion) that make him a lovable and relatable character for people.
For Bowser, he's been a simp for a long time. From the beginning, he's been capturing Peach for marriage.
His suit was taken directly from Mario Odyssey, where he is simping for Peach. Even has a scene where Mario and Bowser are both competing for her and she just walks away from both of them, haha.
In the end, Peach allowed her confidence (arrogance, really) to ferry her directly into Bowser's hands which leads to the more humble Mario coming into his heroism.
We took the grandkids to see it. We enjoyed it.
