A few days ago, Nintendo's "Super Mario Bros. The Movie" was officially released and received positive comments from many viewers. However, the film's popularity unexpectedly revived 1993's "Super Mario Bros." starring Bob Hoskins.
According to the Amazon Best Sellers List, in 1993, the sales of "Super Mario Brothers" even surpassed "Super Mario Bros. Movie" and came to the first place in the list of film and television works.
However, the ratings and reputation of this "Super Horsepower Brothers" are very average. This 1993 movie was once considered one of the worst game adaptations ever, and its rating on the IMDb website is only 4.1 points.
The media speculated that the reason for the soaring sales of "Super Mario Brothers" may be that fans of the series want to revisit the old movies after watching the new movies, or they are simply out of curiosity. Others believe that many buyers simply bought the wrong version of the film.
