Watch Super Mario Bros.

Based on the characters created for the video game, the movie of the Super Mario Bros. has achieved cult status over recent years. Largely following the plot of the original video game, the movie tells the story of brothers Mario and Luigi, New York plumbers who are trying to rescue the kidnapped Princess Daisy from a parallel universe. In this case, Daisy is an archeology student unaware of her royal lineage in the parallel world, which is ruled by a race of people who are descended from dinosaurs. Daisy is kidnapped when the evil Scapelli construction company floods and blows up her dig site beneath Brooklyn Bridge and open a long forgotten portal to the parallel universe. King Koopa, who carries traces of T-Rex descent, holds Daisy as he searches for a piece of a meteorite that will rejoin the two parallel worlds and allow him to dominate the rejoined worlds. Mario and Luigi face a race against time in order to find the meteorite, destroy the plans of King Koopa and return Luigi's girlfriend Princess Daisy to the real world.
