Or just hear me out:

Maybe critics and fans BOTH have a point because they are two different but still valid viewpoints?

Critics look at things more in a vacuum. The scale they rate something in tends to be a more absolute scale. Yes they will compare Mario Movie to Citizen Kane if they want to because Mario is still a film competing in the medium of films. Their perspective is more from a vacuum. Context matters little. Genre matters little.
These ratings are good for outsiders that i.e. have no idea what Mario is and never played a video game before. "What am I getting into". So as a total outsider bot caring about the Mario brand it may just be a mediocre film.
In other word there is a bit more of a tendency to rate for artistic merit.

Audiences on the other hand rate in more relative terms. Like they know video game movies are kinda bad but within THAT context Mario Movie is pretty good. They tend to rate more around pure entertainment value, regardless how low brow it may be, less so than artistic value.

That's not to say that this is always the case, but more of a tendency.
So in absolute terms: Mario Movie is "mediocre" if the Mario IP wasn't attached to it it probably wouldn't be as well received by the audiences either. But in relative terms as a product for video game and Mario fans it's pretty good and entertaining. So in that sense, both can be correct.
