Sonic the Hedgehog 2

a globe-trotting adventure that touches on fun ideas for viewers of all ages, even if the film is too long and jarring to stick the landing.

Slightly grating, way too long, but not terrible.

As long as the Sonic sequels rely on its origins, weaving in aspects of the game into its narrative and keeping pace with the speedy hedgehog, it will appeal to its fan base – young kids and more mature Sega enthusiasts.

Anyone over the age of 12 had best beware.

The first Sonic worked because it refused, against all odds, to turn entirely into product. Sonic 2, by contrast, is a disappointment, but an inevitable one.

Dismiss it as another cash-in; you wouldn’t be wrong. But it’s pure and unapologetic fun, a thrill ride for kids that manages to fly by for adults, too.

For lack of better trying, the film recycles every aspect of the original movie until the last 15 minutes. However, it gives the impression there's not much that can be done to make it better than this. [Full review in Spanish]

Sonic the Hedgehog is another win for paramount! The are new classic additions in Tails and Knuckles allowing for our believed hero to have real challenges of friendship, family and the sacrifices of heroes. Eggman is amazing - Aka the legend Jim Carey!

...a seriously lackluster video-game adaptation that ranks among the worst that the genre has to offer.

A rehash...but the kids will love it.
