Sonic the Hedgehog. Supersonic movie! I was waiting for this film for a very long time and therefore went to it for the second time today andSonic the Hedgehog. Supersonic movie! I was waiting for this film for a very long time and therefore went to it for the second time today and I think I will do it again! This film is special for me because it is an adaptation of the game series that you have been playing since 6 years. Sonic is amazing, Donut Lord performed by James Marsden is a cool, kind guy and of course a magnificent Jim Carrey who, with his charisma and humor, shows who the real Dr. Robotnik. I will really hope and wait for the continuation, especially when there are two hints at the end of the film.… Expand

It's silly. Is it shallow and formulaic? Yes. But it's targeted at kids! And it manages to be entertaining along the way. Ignore the critics who are apparently salty for no reason. This isn't a life-changer. It's not Pixar. But it's not half bad either.… Expand

Sonic wasA very fun movie to watch, it's definitely a good time throughout. Jim Carrey was hilarious throughout and made a great antagonist. Sonic was charming but a tad bit annoying, and the human characters were likeable but kind of boring. I also wish they would've used Sonic's world and characters more, but they've set it up for a sequel which could lean into the lore of the games. Overall, very fun movie and a good time, but by no means a masterpiece. Tops Detective Pikachu as the best videogame movie.… Expand
