I honestly enjoyed Super Mario Bros. Sure it only had like 10% in common with the games but seeing Toad being turned into a Goomba was hilarious. Street Fighter was also pretty great just for Raul Julia's bombastic acting alone. Seeing these creative liberties being taken can be infuriating at first but after the dust settles they can still be fun to watch if only to see how much of a trainwreck they can be.

Fuck anything by Uwe Boll though. He was an asshole and his movies were always painful to watch.

It might have been that the Mario movie was made by Illumination so I had almost no expectations going in but I did really enjoy it way more than I was expecting.

It's kinda weird how that company is definitely capable of producing a good movie and they've demonstrated that a few times but they kinda just choose not to

They're talking about the Super Mario Bros movie from 1993 with Bob Hoskins. It was a dark dystopian cyberpunk movie.

Super Mario Bros is a high budget B-movie and it's pretty charming for that. I enjoyed much of it, but I also kept reflexively punching the friend who made me watch the damn thing so idk if that's a positive review or not. It's a bad movie, but bad movies can be fun. Plus, "Monkey!" is perhaps the greatest line ever penned.

I agree there's plenty of aspects in just about any movie to enjoy, especially for the meme value - I enjoy the hell out of James Marsters as King Piccolo in DragonBall: Evolution, he fucking nailed that role (I'm so funny). The movie is almost objectively trash though.
