3	'''Movie:''' ''Film/SuperMarioBros1993''
4	----
5	!!This review contains examples of:
6	* BoredomMontage: Critic's enthusiasm for the movies gradually fades during the poorly animated prologue about the film's backstory.
7	* CaptainObvious: The Critic delivers one of these to the filmmakers: "If you want a joke to be funny, you need ''humor''."
8	* TheEndOrIsIt:
9	-->'''Critic:''' The Mario Bros. get the rock back, stop the evil Koopa, turn him into a Muppet and return back home. Daisy can't go because she has to figure out where she "belongs" and they have a happy ending. OR DO THEY?!
10	* {{Irony}}: The Critic superimposes "Academy Award Nominated Actor" over scenes of Dennis Hopper (as King Koopa) saying "Bob-Omb" and "Monkey!" repeatedly.
11	* MarshmallowHell: Critic points out a lot of these shots during the scene where Mario tries to get the rock from Big Bertha.
12	-->'''Critic:''' What some people will do for a role.
13	* SequelHook: Critic complains when the movie ends with one of these.
14	* ShoutOut:
15	** Critic plays a montage of Mario and Luigi with the theme from ''Film/BrokebackMountain''.
16	** Critic calls Koopa a mix of UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump and [[Film/AustinPowers Dr. Evil]].
17	** Critic says that ''Film/TheReluctantDragon'' is scarier than this movie.
18	** Critic compares Bob Hoskins' performance as Mario to [[Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit Eddie]] [[ActorAllusion Valiant]].
19	* SickAndWrong: Critic says this in response to Mario and Luigi's "relationship" and the above-mentioned montage.
20	-->'''Critic:''' You're messed up, movie! You're fucking messed up!
21	* TakeThat: When Critic introduces us to the alternate world where its inhabitants evolved from dinosaurs instead of monkeys.
22	-->'''Critic:''' Suck on that, Creationism!
23	* TemptingFate: Critic asks how can the movie get any worse before showing a scene where Daisy introduces the Mario Bros. to her transformed father, followed by Critic doing a HeadDesk.
24	* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Invoked by the Critic when he sees the animated prologue.
25	-->'''Critic:''' Oh my God, this movie's gonna blow.
26	* ThisIsYourPremiseOnDrugs: Invoked by the Critic when describing [[NeverTrustATrailer the trailer as apparently promising]] "Franchise/SuperMarioBros" ON STEROIDS!
27	* WhosOnFirst: Critic compares the "last names" scene to an Abbot & Costello routine.
