The Super Mario Bros. movie tries to adapt the most iconic Nintendo characters into movie format and unfortunately it does not work out well.

Despite these short comings there are still good parts to this movie.

Video game movies don’t have a great reputation. Though some may have been profitable it doesn’t mean that they’ve had good reviews. I’ll be discussing five of these movies in part one of this multi post series. I’ll also be going in order of when the movies were released so the oldest ones will be first.
