Mama mia, paisans! Pro/Con video game correspondent Hailey is back to review another misbegotten video game adaptation: "Super Mario Bros." (1993). Joining Lewis and Nick, the trio dive deep into the first live-action video game film. Bob Hoskins, Dennis Hopper, and Leguizamo The God are all in top form here, but a wonky dystopian fantasy tale that's one part Blade Runner and one part Land of the Lost does not a Mario movie make.
