Could have been a little more like the game.
No I don't mean you should have a movie about two guys jumping on things, I mean you could have made it a game with original character and item designs. Sure some parts of this movie represented things from the game (examples: the fire guns/Fire Flowers, the mushroom that protected Mario from the De-Evolution gun/1up Mushroom, the Stomper boots/Mario and Luigi's famous jumping talents, the metal thing that Koopa fell into/the Koopa Copter). But what I'm saying is that you should take the story from the first video game, evolve it (not too much) into something you can make a movie out of, get more characters from the game like Koopa Troopas (even though some of the Goombas resembled Koopa Troopas) and the Hammer Bros., if the movie goes into a sequal, then use elements from Super Mario Bros. 3 (forget Mario Bros. 2 because that game was pointless), and fianaly if the movie turns into a trilogy you can use Yoshi and other things from Super Mario World. Beside all of this, I think they did a good job on this movie, a story that is below believable, but not too unbelievable, a plot that will keep you interested, and laugh-out-loud humor! A good movie, but it's for people who can deal with the changes.
