Movie Reviews of Super Mario Bros.
Movie Review: It ain't no game, it's a horrific mess of a movie...
Summary: 1 Stars
I can't believe there are actually people who liked this nightmare of a movie! Super Mario Bros The Movie is hailed by all gamers as the prime example of just how bad a movie adaption of a popular video game can be!
Many make the excuse that the only reason why no one likes this movie is because it was made for kids. How exactly does that make sense??? There are plenty of kids movies that adults can watch and enjoy. The Iron Giant was a kid's movie, and I consider it to be one of the best animated movies I've ever seen! The same can be said for Disney movies like Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, Mary Poppins. And what about other great kids movies like Sandlot, The Mouse on the Motorcycle, and The Princess Bride? All of those were kids movies, yet they're still highly entertaining to adult audiences as well.
I didn't even like Super Mario Bros The Movie when I first saw it as a kid... Why? Because I watched it expecting to see Mario & Luigi running around the Mushroom Kingdom trying to save Pricess Toadstool from King Koopa, instead I saw Bob Hoskins & John Leguizamo running around an underground city in another dimension trying to save a red-haired woman from Dennis Hopper, the hippie in Easy Rider!
It was totally unfaitful to the games... Princess Toadstool's name is Peace, Daisy is the Princess of another kingdom, Yoshi isn't a Raptor, Koopa is a giant fire-breathing dragon, not an overly smug business man, and Goombas are tiny little fanged-mushrooms with little black shoes, not some tall guy in a jacket with a tiny head! Also, what's with the flamethrowers? Was that their answer to Koopa being able to breath fire as a business man, or are they just that stupid?
Super Mario Bros The Movie is just as bad to an adult as it is to a kid, a kid just gets more confused at the movie, whereas an adult gets mad.
The only video game movie that ever reached such awesomely bad heights as SMB The Movie was the Double Dragon movie, and to a lesser extent the Street Fighter movie staring Jean-Claude Vandamme.
Buy it only so you can see how horrible it is, and maybe for a cheap laugh or two, but if you like the Super Mario Bros video games, don't buy this expecting a block buster based on your favorite video game.
1 Star, but only because they won't let me give it zero...
And unlike it does in the games, 1 Star does not = limited invincibility...
