I took my husband and 2 sons to go and see Birds Of Prey featuring Harley Quinn and was appalled to hear homophobic slurs used throughout the movie! Luckily the Sonic Movie was screening in the next room and my family had a much better experience!

It's not a perfect movie, but it's the perfect Sonic movie. I can't imagine what I'd change in a Sonic movie. Stay after the credits, clearly set up for a sequel. Which I'm already excited to see.

What The Movie Did

Jim Carrey has never been funnier than in this movie. Jim Carrey deserves an Oscar nomination for his hilarious performance as Robotnik, though I must admit his greatness would outshine everything else in the movie if itWhat The Movie Did

Jim Carrey has never been funnier than in this movie. Jim Carrey deserves an Oscar nomination for his hilarious performance as Robotnik, though I must admit his greatness would outshine everything else in the movie if it weren't for Sonic's lovable slapstick humor that only somewhat competes. Jim Carrey completely destroyed his role with perfection and reinvented the Sonic universe's Robotnik in a way, that is better than what the comics, shows, and games have ever done -and those Robotniks were all great in themselves. As a hardcore Sonic fan, I say Jim Carrey has permanently made a lasting powerful impact in all the right ways on this franchise. I only hope SEGA can afford him for future sequels, because he is not replaceable.

The writing for Sonic was great as was his classic slapstick antics. The hints at a larger lore for this Sonic Cinematic Universe brings great hope for many future sequels and left me creatively intrigued with the possibilities. I have a strong hunch the people behind this movie are secretly hoping this becomes the next Marvel Cinematic Universe, as they have set themselves up quite well for such an endeavor, if the money is enough to justify such an act. I'd say this movie was superior to the Detective Pikachu movie due entirely to Sonic and Robotnik destroying the movie with hilarious charm. You will laugh and smile a lot throughout this comedy even though it's PG.

Other noteworthy aspects of the film were the characters, charm, and CGI. The black female family put in the movie is sweet but feels underdeveloped -gives a subtle impression of race/sex insertion in order to feel racially and chromosomally balanced, rather than to provide enjoyable characters. The soundtrack is peppy and enjoyable, though given the Sonic universe's well-established quality soundtracks in games, I feel there is fair room for improvement in future sequels. Ryan Reynolds is a great main actor to accompany Sonic for his reactions and tough charming appeal. CGI within the movie struck a perfect balance between cartoonishness and realism in conveying Sonic and the robots attacking him. Things like fur, feathers, quills, were all well-conveyed CGI-wise. Loved certain CGI-animated cinematographic choices that made certain scenes incredibly hilarious and charming in how they enhanced the personalities of the main characters.

What The Movie Should Have Done

The lore, cultural depth, and focus on adding additional CGI characters like Sonic, were all things this movie really needed and didn't deliver. Just a couple more minutes of focus or more hinting at the backstory and world Sonic came from was heavily warranted but not given. The focus on southern relatable experiences is enjoyable to a point, but it does feel a little over-done purely for the sake of appealing to a wider audience. Taking better advantage and showing more respect for the various locations across the planet the two characters Sonic and Robotnik visit, would have made the movie more immersive and potentially funnier if more varied cultural humor was used.

Certain lines felt they could use a more dramatic delivery, and certain times where the comedic tone perhaps should have been replaced with a more dramatic tone. The writing was good, but the comedy was a little soft in places and likewise there were too many missed opportunities for edgy cool writing that weren't taken. Likewise, expanding on the cultural and meaningful impact of choices made by the characters, as well as news media and people on the streets reacting, would have been a better choice to make in order to provide a more immersive enjoyable impact for the viewer -similar to what the Marvel Cinematic Universe often does in relation to its heroes. Since the characters visit multiple locations in the world, there should have been people in those locations reacting to what's going on. It's also shown Robotnik is a genius hinted at understanding multiple other languages, so it would have been funny if he'd spoken subtitled cultural jokes in the corresponding subtitled languages.

The characters were flat with no development and apart from Ryan Reynolds, Sonic, and Jim Carrey, the other characters were lackluster in personality depth. There should have been a couple more characters at least equal in quality to Sonic in terms of writing and unique charms, but none came close. Robotnik was a league above Sonic's dialogue and personality quality -something future movies definitely should fix if they add more Sonic Universe characters. I understand that this movie would have taken too long and cost too much if these recommended choices were made; but, that is the difference between 3 and 4 stars. Hopefully more time and money is put into addressing these lacking areas in future installments.

Thank Chaos they fixed the Sonic the Hedgehog design -I would have knocked this down a point for that alone.… Expand

This movie does a fine job replicating magic from the games, while at the same time serving as an extension to character’s backstory. Thought movie brought even more heart & depth to Sonic than I was originally used to. Was fun seeing Sonic before in Wreck-it Ralph movies, but now that he has his own film, I’m stoked Sega’s most beloved mascot got the treatment he deserved after leaving such a major mark in gaming. A couple forced & lazily delivered outdated jokes made me cringe, but was surprised that it was cleverly written for the majority of the time. Jim Carrey & video games was like my 2 fav things in the 90s, so it was like creators went out of their way to make this specifically for pop culture nostalgia junkies.… Expand

Jim Carrey brought Robotnik to life like no one else could, but at its core its a lil kids film. Which is fine/perfect.

O envolvimento do personagem com o mundo humano foi algo muito interessante, principalmente a amizade que ambos criam durante o filme.

His origin story is a fresh good way to start things off in the "live action" aspect since they had to add the real people. I could actually see this as becoming Canon to the video games in a sense, which brings me to my next point. Everything in the movie reflected little things within thevideo games as well. As a fan of Sonic, I would have to say that the little Easter eggs that popped into this one were very refreshing and appreciated. The team working on this did great. As for my next point, I'm giving it a 10 because the people listened to the fans and made a great movie that I believe any Sonic fan would appreciate. As far as a movie goes however, I'd have to say it's an 8. It's fun and never boring, that's for sure. It also had great funny parts to it as well. My last point I want to make is Dr robotnik. He was great and everything I would expect from him. Also, with that being said, although this is live action, I actually forgot it was not fully animated due to the actors great performances and becoming "animated" themselves. As for my review, I hope everyone takes this weekend to see it and support it due to the studio listening to it's fans. In conclusion, I enjoyed my experience thoroughly.… Expand

The redesign of Sonic pays tribute to the source material and you can find lots of hints to the game here and there. So, if you want to delight in nostalgia and just wanna have a good time at the movies, I recommend Sonic The Hedgehog.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I think I went in with a different expectation of what the story/character would feel like, based on what I know from Sonic media preceding this, than what it actually came out to be. But that's okay.

For most of the movie it didn't really feel like Sonic. He was insecure and sort of helpless, and didn't really show any Sonic qualities or many heroics for that matter. There was a bit too much sub-plot with the cop and his family for my liking, and I feel that they didn't add as much Sonic aesthetic or action as they could have with this this glorious opportunity with the big screen. However, as the story progressed, Sonic became more confident and aware of his power, and the movie started to feel more what I was looking for: Sonic doing Sonic things.

With the intense final scenes playing out, along with those amazing mid-credits scenes (there are two), the movie definitely redeemed itself, and I felt really good as I left the theater (though I wanted so much more after all that!).

Though the movie as a whole was not what I expected and I was very turned off by the multiple (very apparent) Olive Garden ads and Sonic floss dancing scenes, I very much enjoyed it as a longtime fan of the series in my early 20's.… Expand

Sonic The Hedgehog is not bad by any means, but it's nowhere near spectacular. The movie is nothing but a hodgepodge of disarray resulting from placing a video game character into an alternate reality. That's it. It's incongruous with the franchise and lacks any depth necessary for it to be considered a decent film. I give major props to Paramount for redesigning Sonic, but was the effort worth it if they could only pump out a film equal in quality to the initial character's design?… Expand

Fun popcorn movie. There’s some cheese here and there (clearly aimed towards kids) but it seems like it was written by people who loved the games and Jim Carey brought his 90s chops back for Robotnik which was an awesome take on the character.

This movie was funny, great acting with Jim Carrey and James Marsden, and an ending that left you wanting more. Thank you so much for the love that went into this movie. The re-design was an absolute must. It made this movie. Easily this could have been review of a good movie that was ruined by bad character design. This wasn't the greatest movie in the world, but a movie you won't have a bad time with. No doubt you'll have a laugh at one or the many jokes. This is a really fun night at the movies. The bad parts of the movie were the fortnite dance Sonic performed, that was the only cringe part of this movie. For being a "kids" movie, I can let that slide because of the respect the rest of the film gave it's characters. 8/10, great watch, won't regret it, fun time.… Expand

A fun family-friendly video game movie that benefits from Ben Schwartz’s wisecracking vocal performance as the titular Blue Blur, Jim Carrey as Doctor Robotnik and a last minute redesign of Sonic’s model. The opening scene is well put together and explains why Sonic had to stay on Earth, it’s actually quite sad when you see it. The comedy is charming with the callbacks to Marvel movies, Star Wars, Fast and Furious and Keanu Reeves. And, the lore of Sonic they expand on the movie is actually established quite well. I think this is the second best video game movie after Pokemon: Detective Pikachu and it’s worth seeing. Also, make sure you stay for two post credits scenes, one that will make you say “I wanna see a sequel”, which my theater agreed with when they clapped in applause after it ended.

Final score: 5 stars. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10.

P.S. There’s only one downside in this movie which is that we didn’t get something that I hope the get in potential sequel: Jim Carrey’s Robitnik saying “PINGAS”. … Expand

Not the sort of movie that's likely to score well with critics (for some reason, crtics often can't seem to enjoy anything that's remotely vanilla; if it's not profound, it's no good apparently), but in my opinion, it was a blast. It's weirdNot the sort of movie that's likely to score well with critics (for some reason, crtics often can't seem to enjoy anything that's remotely vanilla; if it's not profound, it's no good apparently), but in my opinion, it was a blast. It's weird to think now that when the trailer first launched soon after Detective Pikachu's, it very clearly paled in comparison and people were convinced that Pokémon would come out on top. Since the redesign though, Sonic's done a complete 180 and after seeing it, I am happy to say this is frankly the best video-game-adapted movie ever.

Something that became apparent to me early on was how endearing and fun not just Sonic, but every character was in their own way, including Tom and Maddie. The real show-stealer however is Jim Carrey as Robotnik. They give a bit of a backstory for his personality, and Carrey plays up the absurdity of this personality to silly extremes, which made for some of the film's highlight scenes.

Sonic is also a very likeable character, despite having many jokes and quips that often don't land. Ben Schwartz does a perfect voice for him however, and Sonic's super speed makes for some great visual gags. There is one speed-related gag in particular part way through the film that made for one of the coolest comedy action sequences I've seen in recent memory; from a visual standpoint, it might even turn out to be one of my favorite sequences from a movie this year, even if it's not entirely original.

As far as flaws go, I'd say there are mainly two. Firstly, Sonic's whole universe and it's mechanics (such as rings, the function they play, Sonic's speed, his back story etc) is a LOT to fit into a film that's trying to be fairly straightforward. Because of this, they don't really do a great deal to explain anything too much - they'll give you an explanation for what rings do for example, but won't explain why and just sort of expect you to accept this because it's in the games. This example didn't bother me too much, but there was another instance regarding Sonic's backstory that I thought was a little unecessary - it was just some extra lore that was never established in the games that felt a little unecessary. I understand the function it played on the overaching story, but it also bothered to introduce us to a new character who we only ever see once, and I just felt that was a bit of a waste. These issues however were only minor and didn't hinder the experience for me too much.

Easily the bigger issue however was the film's runtime - although the film isn't trying to be a huge epic, it still could've benefited from an extended runtime for some more detailed character and plot development. Unfortunately the message that the film's trying to bring up about "loneliness" really didn't have much of an effect on me, which was likely due to the short runtime not leaving enough room to weave any kind of profound moral messaging. I also think that the climax of the film could've felt far more epic had there been a greater buildup of ups and downs before that moment.

Ultimately though, Sonic the Hedgehog is not only a good video game to film adaption, it's a GOOD MOVIE. If you're a Sonic fan, you'll enjoy it a lot and if you're not, you'll still have a lot of fun with the zany plot and characters. Yes, it's a fairly straightforward, vanilla plot but this was all this movie needed. It's also left a lot of potential for a sequel, as you realize towards the end particularly that there is a lot of this world left to explore (and if you stick around to midway through the credits, it becomes clear that the film makers likely have this in mind)… Expand

The plot here is that Sonic (who in the film looks mostly good, although his eyes are separated which is a letdown); an alien hedgehog who has the power of super speed, escapes to Earth for his own safety, then lives a solitary life. However, a series of events lead to him being discovered and pursued by the evil Dr. Robotnik, who wants to use his super speed powers. Thus, Sonic teams up with a cop to escape Robotnik and get back to safety.

First of all, I feel that putting Sonic on Earth was a missed opportunity plot-wise that makes the film as a whole seem rather generic and uninventive. A plot that saw him visiting more of the vibrant areas of the games would have made for a more interesting and engaging film. Instead, we're left with a rather generic "normal guy helps mischievous talking animal" story.

In addition to that, the film clearly sees children as its main audience. Plot developments are very predictable, and the injection of a specific current pop culture trend (not once, but twice) is in my opinion a bad move that will cause the film to age quickly.

However, there are good points. Robotnik is played very well, seeming faithful to the games while putting a new spin on the character. The use of rings as portals is a nice touch. Sonic's quips are generally funny. Emotional moments, while predictable, seem genuine.

Ultimately, this is fine to watch. It's not bad, but it's not particularly good either. Still, I think the Sonic franchise has more film potential, and I hope that's tapped into with a potential sequel.… Expand
