Featured review
Not bad, but has a bunch of issues
On the one hand, Sonic & Tails are great (their voice actors and animation are solid) knuckles is decent too. Eggman at times feels a bit too much like Carrey being Carrey, but he still does a great job portraying him.
Where does this movie go wrong then? It has a lot of time wasted on cast members nobody cares about - like a bride, and this coupled with the minimal moments showing Sonic's world make me realize how much better this would've been if it was all animation and not mixed with live actors in real shoots.
At times Paramount make this movie goofy too with 4th wall breaking lines and overuse of hip-hop, they aren't even that funny.
There's some good action sequences and as above the actual characters from the classic games are well done, but it feels like everything else is kind of weak and off focus.
Worth a watch, but not one I'd be eager to watch again.
