Product: Super Mario Bros. [VHS] (1993)
Rating: 5.0
Quirky, Fun and Definitely A Classic
So few films these days live-up to the pure imagination and fun that could be felt in those made in the '80s or '90s. Making movies now just has a different sensibility, whereas before you could fund almost anything and end up with something worth watching time and again.Super Mario Bros. is a quirky and fun adventure that has endured as a classic of sorts for anyone who grew up loving that period of movies. Everything in it is just real and heartfelt and that's what makes it enjoyable despite its flaws.It's been said before, but it needs to be said again: this movie desperately needs and deserves a re-release. There's a definite interest in seeing Mario and Luigi come alive on-screen again, so why not take the time to rework what's already there? Put this on Blu-Ray with deleted scenes and show more of that original fun.
