2 Answers
You can try the following:
Edit your mplayer config file (/home/user/.mplayer/config) and add these lines:
font = "Ubuntu"
ass-font-color = "ffff0000"
ass-font-scale = "2"
Let's say you have a video named video.avi and the subtitles in the same folder eg:(home/user/Videos) named subtitle.srt.
Then to open a video with mplayer in full screen from the command line type:
cd /home/user/Videos
mplayer video.avi -sub subtitle.srt -fs -ass
(You can change the value of "ass-font-scale" acoording to your needs.)
If you are using mplayer-gui to open the video, make sure you have SSA/ASS enable,right-click in mplayer-gui and go to Preferences.
In the tab "Subtitles & OSD" click in "SSA/ASS subtitle rendering"
If you want to change another option like font scaling just go to the "Font" tab.
(Maybe after changing some options you have to restart the mplayer-gui.)
Hope this will be helpful!

edit ~/.mplayer/config
#put the path to the desired font
font=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/impact.ttf
ffactor="10" #black outline
sub-bg-alpha="0" #background color ala closed captions
sub-bg-color="0" #black to white
subfont-text-scale="3.7" #truetype font scaling
subfont-blur="1" #Slight blur
not sure about color codes, but you can play 0-255
