Super Mario Bros. (film)



Super Mario Bros. is a live action movie about the Mario brothers, released in 1993.

Plot
The basic plot of the movie is the idea that the comet that killed the dinosaurs created a parellel dimension where dinosaurs have evolved into intelligent beings and their leader, King Koopa, is trying to rejoin the two dimensions and rule over both of them. In order to do so, Koopa must reassemble the comet that struck the earth and separated the two dimensions in the first place. The last missing piece to the comet was left on a doorstep with a mysterious egg containing a newborn Princess Daisy.

Critical Reception
The movie is generally considered poor. In a Nintendo Power article about New Super Mario Bros., a timeline of Mario's history could be seen at the bottom of the page. The Super Mario Bros. movie was mentioned, only with the words, "Yes, it happened. Let us speak no more of it." The actor of Mario, Bob Hoskins, called the film the worst thing he ever did.
