Member Rating:  
The huge success of the video games featuring animated Italian plumbers the Mario Brothers led to this $42 million live action movie. The two brothers (Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo) live in Manhattan and are chasing Princess Daisy (Samantha Mathis), who wears a necklace made from a meteor fragment. Its powers can free a race of reptilian creatures from the city's sewers. The villainous ruler of the creatures, who are descendants of dinosaurs, is King Koopa (Dennis Hopper). Koopa has kidnapped Daisy and taken her to the underworld of Dinohattan, which is rat-infested and strewn with garbage. The Mario Brothers must overcome many obstacles, just as they do in video games, to free the princess. The film spares no expense with its use of animatronic monsters and high-tech special effects. ~ Michael Betzold, Rovi

    Nice film! But it gave me mixed feelings. Pros: First of all the plot and the character design where brilliant. Including the speical effects. They were quite impressive - even compared with today's standareds! The plot moves on with that videogame-adventure feel and action. There is never a dull momment. It keeps you on your seats cheering for Mario and Luigi! Cons: Mario fans who are looking forward to something close and true to the video game will be a bit dissapointed with his movie. A lot of the characters and story concepts vaguely reflect the classic video game world and characters. Luigi seems like a teenager. Where was Princes Toadstool? She was replaced by Princess Daisy. There is a lot of seductive content (especially the club sences) I found it a bit too strong for a movie geared for kids. Overall, it is good. Dispite the cheesy re-creation from the real videogame characters and world, it is a film well worth watching. Mario Bros.!
