by

As a lifelong enthusiast of the Sonic universe, I’ve been eagerly awaiting this third installment with bated breath! The trailers have been promising, but the rave first reactions following its premiere have truly sent my excitement levels soaring!

The third installment of Sonic the Hedgehog, which debuted recently, is receiving enthusiastic early reviews, with several people describing it as the “top-notch” or “best” in the series.

In the newest version of the video game transformation, Sonic, along with his companions, squares off against Shadow, who is voiced by Keanu Reeves. Interestingly, they find themselves working together with Dr. Robotnik, portrayed by Jim Carrey.

Based on comments on social media by critics who watched the film, it appears that the sequel has been well-received, particularly for Jim Carrey’s acting performance and the movie’s powerful emotional impact.

Steven Weintraub from Collider has declared that Sonic 3 is undeniably the best so far, as he believes that Shadow brings a strong adversary to the table without being just filler, and he also appreciates Jim Carrey’s portrayal of Dr. Robotnik.

“He’s such a brilliant performer and he never gives less than his everything. Was a lot of fun watching him play off himself. He plays two roles in the sequel.”

Chris Killian from ComicBook also referred to it as the standout choice among them, commending Jim Carrey’s energetic silliness and acknowledging a touching portrayal by Keanu Reeves. Furthermore, he mentioned that the climax could stir emotions in Sonic fans, perhaps bringing a few tears to their eyes.

James Lister from Get Your Comic On even went so far as to declare that among all video game adaptations, Sonic 3 stands out as the finest yet, remarking: “This game delivers exhilarating action, heartfelt emotions, and Jim Carrey showing off his unique talents. Sonic 3 offers a chaotic yet delightful conclusion to the year – it was simply incredible fun!

The article from The Mary Sue by Rachel Leishman poses an interesting question: “Could Ben Schwartz move me to tears as a blue speedster named Sonic?” The movie, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, is as exciting and enjoyable as its predecessors. It raises the bar even higher, making us remember why we adore these films. Cheers to TEAM SONIC!

According to Gene Park from The Washington Post, “Sonic 3” is outstanding. He likened it to the closest Hollywood has come to producing a Dragon Ball film. As a dedicated fan, he applauded and cheered for numerous aspects of it in an almost empty theater, and despite some predictable cringe-worthy jokes, this movie offers a side-splitting tale.

In U.S. movie theaters, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 hits the screens on December 20, while it premieres in UK cinemas a day later, on December 21.
