Sonic 3: Le film

You can tell the people who made this movie care. They care about creating something true to the source material. They care about the fans and their enjoyment. They care about just making a good movie.

This third chapter in the series is a blast. We see continued escalation and expansion while balancing so many characters and story points. It could have easily been a jumbled mess, but it's so smooth.

Two things that jumped a level from previous entries: the action and the visuals. There are several beastly action scenes that had me grinning ear to ear. And so many shots are visually mesmerizing, even borderline trippy. And sometimes these two things overlap... like I said before, they care.

Jim Carrey is the GOAT. This is the third time I've written that in a Sonic review. With his ridiculously deep filmography, I never thought I'd say Dr. Robotnik is one of his best roles ever.

As long as they keep putting this much care into making these movies, I will watch as many as they want to make. Every other prospective video game adaptation needs to take notes.

Sonic The Hedgehog 3 is easily the best of the trilogy.

Best writing, best characterisation, great humour and Keanu Reeves was absolute CLASS as Shadow.

This movie differs from the first 2, most evidently being in the tone of the movie, this movie is a soul adaptation of Sonic Adventure 2 and they handled it better than I would've ever thought.

Shadow's past is portrayed hauntingly beautiful, not to mention his immaculate CGI model, I was so impressed by how he looked.

Jim Carrey was humorous as usual, an absolute treat to have in our franchise, he was hilariously amazing as both Ivo & Gerald.

Ben Schwartz, Colleen & Idris all shined more than ever.

As a huge Sonic fan, this movie passed my expectations, what a feeling to be a Sonic fan!

This movie goes down as a rich part of Sonics history.

9/10.

This was a pleasant surprise. As a father who has spent days of my life sitting through the first two entries, I'm so relieved that the series shifted into a new gear.

The character development hit harder, the action was more exciting, and the humor hit new highs. The villains were three-dimensional and it was a joy spending the movie with the trio of Knuckles, Tails and Sonic operating with fully-formed friendship. It wasn't without nits to pick - I personally found the editing to be noticeably choppy at times - but the pros well outweigh the cons.

I can't stress enough that people familiar with the series will get a new and welcome take on how the series operates. Same chassis, new engine.

The best trillogy in the franchise the fitgh scene and CGI is incerdible and emotial sonic fans is going love this flim event the way they go about bringin back like rachel a controversial original character for this movie. The way she is brought into the movie and the small role. She plays tought fit well for people who whant see that character while also connecting tings that have happened in previous movie but the one human character you do want to see a lot of that is working double time Jim carrey as both Robotnik Gerald robotik.the biggest Jim carrey simp he is the guy and nowaday we juts do not gave anough Carrey zaninees on the big screen. And my rating is 7.4 /10.

I wanted to love it but couldn't quite get there. I feel like the movie was trying too hard to be funny. The scenes where we have genuine emotion and intensity is when the movie shines most. However they were sparse.

90% of Team Sonic's lines were corny jokes which took away the gravity of the situations they were facing. The fans want epic scenes that showcase the awesome ability of the hedgehog's and foes yet there wasn't enough or they were too brief.

There were some awesome moments in the movie but i wanted them to go for a bit longer (sonic v shadow in the finale). I also liked the relationship between the Robotniks', comedy and genuine emotion. A nice combo. Jim Carey provided a great performance too (acting and dancing).

You can see the people surrounding the film truly cared about the end product which all sonic fans can appreciate.

However the over used jokes and lack of time spent on the better moments prevent the film from being truly spectacular. However, still an enjoyable popcorn flick.

Gotta go fast!!!!
