Sonic the Hedgehog 3

GenX reporting in. Just got back from the first screening at our AMC with my 12 year old. We both agreed that this was the best sonic film, the closest to the games, with great action scenes, a ton of laughing... Jim Carey nails this once again, but even funnier with two of him on screen! A fantastic soundtrack including one of my all time favorite bands, The Travelling Wilburys! Fantastic visual effects that are very 3D in the 2D format. The perfect run time, isn't too short, and just as soon as you get tired it wraps up. Stay past the beginning credits for a scene that hints at part 4, which satisfied all the kids around us. We walked out smiling, this one had it all! Well done and recommended.

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.

It was really good. They didn't waste a lot of time and went straight into the stuff we care about. They handled Shadow excellently. I don't want to give too much away, but this was definitely a love letter to the fans. Eggman(s) stole the movie again. Jim Carrey is the perfect Eggman.

I was hoping for one thing to be here, but it wasn't. That's ok though. There was obviously a lot of references to Sonic Adventure 2 and it was cool to see those moments on the big screen

This movie was a blast and I had a lot of fun watching it.

I'd give it a 8/10. Also, stay for the mid credit and end credit scenes. They are super hype!

Easily the best one, which coincidentally contains the majority of actual Sonic moments in this entire trilogy. Keanu Reeves absolutely steals the show as Shadow, he portrays the ruthlessness and immense emotional pain of his character incredibly well. Also Jim Carrey pulls off acting as the dual Dr Robotniks with incredible comedic timing, especially with each himself, as it really feels like these are two separate characters.

The human subplots are as mediocre as usual but are infinitely more tolerable here as they tie into the main story much more naturally. Also, while they do adapt the Sonic Adventure 2 storyline as best as they could in the universe they've established, I feel like they could have gone deeper in exploring the bond between Shadow and Maria.

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.
