Review of Super Mario Bros. (1993) by Overton A — 10 Nov 2009

Terrific movie...

I loved the game, I love the movie...

It's colorful, it's creative, it's funny, the visuals are near perfect. I love it, it's one of my favorite movies.

Now this is the part of the review for the people who hate this movie...

GET OVER IT!

I know it's nearly nothing to do with the game, and it's extremely cheesy, but looking past all that, it's really not that bad. I think the writers were really trying to create something new and creative, the plot isn't really anything to do with the video game we know and love, this is completely different. It's supposed to be a totally different take on the series. No one ever said it was a movie version of the game, they just said it was BASED on the game, and that gives it permission to really be something else.

I don't really care, but it's just so much fun to watch from beginning to end.
