This is not a movie. It is a 2-episode OVA (Original Video Animation) in Japan from 1996. A British company known as ADV Films got the rights to dub it and release it pasted together in USA and Europe calling it a movie. I don't know the fact if it's rated "G" by the MPAA or not rated by the MPAA at all.
When Old Man Owl sent an urgent message from the president to Sonic and Tails personally, The dynamic duo flew to his office. The president and his daughter are hosteled by Dr. Robotnik (Dr. Eggman in original japan version) and his army. When they arrive, Robotnik tells them that his hometown Robotropolis (Eggmanland in JAP version) located in the Land of Darkness was attacked by a creature named Metal Robotnik (Black Eggman in JAP version). Our heroes accepted this mission, little did they knew that Metal Robotnik is a trap to activate Hyper Metal Sonic, Robotnik's most powerful robot yet.
If you are bored and don't know what to do, watch this and be absorbed by the film.
FACTS:
CONCEPT: 2 animals trust a villain on destroying big robot to trap Sonic.
STORY: Original - like a follow-up to Sonic CD
ACTING: The JAP one has good voice acting. The dub was ANNOYING! Sonic sounded like he was a dork trying to be cool. Tails sounded like he had a cold. Knuckles sounded like another dork. The president sounded dumb and goofy - even at times he should be serious like the REAL president. Robotnik sounded.... Same as the president's.
ANIMATION: Original - but not that decent. Same animation of the Sonic CD intro and ending.
REPLAY: After watching it, you wouldn't feel like seeing it again until your friends come over to have a little show-off.
I give the JAP one a 7/10, and the DUB one (as seen above) a 6/10 for a bad job on voice acting. But the time must come when a REAL live-action/CGI Sonic movie that will top the charts!
