Super Mario Brothers [DVD] [1993]

Let's be honest, finding a good quality classic film like the Mario Brothers is nearly impossible nowdays. Yet, the DVD was available with just a few at the store and ready for pick up. Another great turnout about this deal was the competitive price if compared to the online competitors markets.

Super Mario Brothers movie is the funniest from 1993. The view of the movie is like you have gone someplace else and you'll enjoy the colorful sites you see everywhere!

Is the movie itself good? I mean… crazy production, innovative technology that helped paved the way for future films. But source material? Not a chance. Bob Hoskins was great, and that’s about it. Perfect for a MST3K/Riff-Trax kind of get together with friends. And the DVD works.

I already knew about this movie and how bad it is, but I like collecting things from the Mario franchise and I had never seen it before so why not? It is a bad movie obviously, but I really just wanted to own it just because.

Old classic movie looks great on dvd had to get when found on dvd

As a child of the 80’s/90’s, I was of course a big Nintendo fan and loved Super Mario Brothers. So when this movie came out, I HAD to go see it and I dragged my father to the theater to go see it. Watching the movie now, I owe my father a sincere apology haha. While the set design and costumes are all amazing and homaging a lot of Blade Runner, the story and acting in this movie is just broken and, at times, hard to watch. If you’re a fan of 90’s schlock films and grew up as a kid of the 90’s and have some nostalgia for the movie, then this is worth picking up. You really can’t beat the price and it’s a fun movie to throw on late at night with friends to poke fun at.

This film gets a lot of negative reviews but it's fantastic. I first saw this when I was pretty small so my taste in film was not developed. However, since I'm becoming nostalgic, I bought this for the cost of renting it and it's wild, wacky and nothing really like Super Mario except with it's allusions. Besides Tank Girl, I can't think of too many film that were this wacky and based on media that was seen as low brow at the time. If you haven't seen this, but you are curious, come at it with an open mind. I think there is something here that's more about how we interpret games and the culture of escapism which the game is all about escaping the real world, rather than a faithful adaptation to the source material. The "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep" to "Blade Runner" version of a game.

If you haven't seen this 1990s cult classic you haven't seen one of the best worst movies ever made. Even though it never made sense, it is still a great movie and I love it. This movie is hilarious with some classic actors. If you want to relive your childhood in the 1990s or introduce your children to an early movie based on a video game, then this is the movie you have to own.
