Despite flashy sets and special effects, Super Mario Bros. is too light on story and substance to be anything more than a novelty. Read critic reviews

I prefer a film that takes risks over inane projects. [Full review in Spanish]

Like their video-game counterparts, co-stars Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo somehow manage to weave their way past threatening obstacles and escape with their dignity.

Scenery rushes by, noise blares, characters pop up wearing new costumes that they couldn't possibly have had time to change into as they eluded their adversaries.

Ultimately, it's one more stop in the arcade, beckoning, waiting to soak up time and money.

Jul 16, 2016Exceedingly strange and complete against the Super Mario Bros game. When they say this is terrible I really wanted to give it a chance but, it really is as bad as you have heard. The only saving grace is that both Queen and Roxette are part of the soundtrack.Ian W Super Reviewer

Mar 05, 2012Oh god this film... This film was every one of these actor's low points in their carrer's. From the second I was told there was a Super Mario Brothers movie, I knew it was going to be bad, but I wasent expecting it to be this bad. I should start off by saying the film was narrarated by Homer Simpson. I then new this would be the cheesiest thing EVER. Then it wasent til later in the film I was like, 'Wait, is that... no, that cant be Dennis Hopper!' but saddly it's true. Bob Hoskins as Mario, Hopper as King Koopa and MOJO NIXON AS TOAD!!! COME ON! What's sad is you know they wanted to make a sequal to this and thank the beard of Zeus they didnt! They didnt include Peach, Wario, Donkey Kong or even the main bad guy BOWSER! Please avoid this film at all cost, for your own sake... I can never get those 114 minutes of my life back...Joshua W Super Reviewer

Dec 02, 2011Super Mario Bros is a terrible movie, it was one of the worst f#cking things that I have ever had to experience. The plot is so god awful and boring and ruined the video game so much that it mnade me sick to my stomach. The cast was horrible, what the hell were they thinking. This movie nbeeds to be destroyed and never be heard from again, I hate this movie.Bradley W Super Reviewer
