When I first saw the trailer for this movie, I was horrified. The original design for Sonic was one of the most hideous things I have ever seen. From the original teaser trailer, I assumed that it would be Sega's failed ripoff of Detective Pikachu that they somehow dragged Jim Carrey in to.
However, when I got to seeing the movie, after the internet's backlash and studio's redesign, I was pleasantly surprised. The movie was funny and lighthearted while also throwing in a little bit of nostalgia. I recommend this film for both Sonic fans and people looking for a nice movie.
