Pros: The music, the video games (if that's your fancy!) Cons: It's more like a commercial for Super Mario Bros. 3 than a movie!
I've been a regular Nintendo freak since back in the eighties, in the days when video games were actually an 8-bit escape from reality and not a twisted ultra-violent real-to-life exploitation of the closet sadist. So it kind of goes without ...

Pros: An adorable story, corny as heck, and just....well...unusual! Cons: Might seem shallow to some. A film made to sell Nintendo ware.

Pros: Captivates the Nintendo era perfectly Cons: Most games shown are only on the first level
Anyone who was into gaming in the 80's and early 90's probably saw this opening weekend. I definitely did. Little would I later realize how well this movie really captured NES mania. I suppose it also doesn't hurt that I'm an NES fanatic and perhaps...
