Critics Consensus

Fittingly fleet and frequently fun, Sonic the Hedgehog is a video game-inspired adventure the whole family can enjoy -- and a fine excuse for Jim Carrey to tap into the manic energy that launched his career.

I'm glad they did a retake and took their time. This had alot of great moments and easter eggs while capturing a live-action version to Sonic.

Sure, there's enough here to divert small people for a while, but their parents would do well to bring a blindfold and ear plugs.

Some of the most obvious and cringe-worthy product placement since Michael Bay's Transformers. It's a fun adventure that any family can enjoy on a Sunday afternoon, but I wish it could have been more entertaining and less frustrating story-wise.

Rated: C+

Is Sonic the Hedgehog the best video game movie ever? No. Is it better than a good number of its predecessors? Yes, it is. If you grew up with Sega or have kids, then go give Sonic a shot on the big screen.

Rated: C+

Keith & the Movies

When “Sonic the Hedgehog” keeps its focus on the light-hearted charm of its titular lead character and on exploring the theme of friendship it makes for a pretty good time.
