Sonic the Hedgehog 3

Jim Carrey was my hero, when I grew up. I have seen them all, thousands of times and when I am an older man now, I cannot and will not stop to see whatever project he is in. Crossing with the fact I have now kids of my own and we have seen both sonic movies, I had the chance to combine all into watching the third movie with double dose of Carrey.

The plot, as always, doesn't really matter for those kinds of movies. Idris Alba is getting reinforcement with the voice of Keanu Reeves and James Marsden is getting less screen time, but he is not the main issue here. Jim Carrey gets the chance to create a double character and double role and just have fun with it.

Sonic will not stop as a Trilogy and while it seems the kids are having fun with this franchise, it seems that the actors have fun also and getting well paid for this fun. The role of human characters is getting weaker, while AI and animated characters are taking control on this movie and succeeding with it.

It's a colorful joyride, that is just getting attached to the same old routine for making movies, that are based of old computer games. The surprise here is that all three movies maintain the same magic and portion of success on cinemas and also maintain the same level, which is not an easy task. Thanks to Jim Carrey, the task becomes way easier.

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.

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.

I wanted to love it but couldn't quite get there. I feel like the movie was trying too hard to be funny. The scenes where we have genuine emotion and intensity is when the movie shines most. However they were sparse.

90% of Team Sonic's lines were corny jokes which took away the gravity of the situations they were facing. The fans want epic scenes that showcase the awesome ability of the hedgehog's and foes yet there wasn't enough or they were too brief.

There were some awesome moments in the movie but i wanted them to go for a bit longer (sonic v shadow in the finale). I also liked the relationship between the Robotniks', comedy and genuine emotion. A nice combo. Jim Carey provided a great performance too (acting and dancing).

You can see the people surrounding the film truly cared about the end product which all sonic fans can appreciate.

However the over used jokes and lack of time spent on the better moments prevent the film from being truly spectacular. However, still an enjoyable popcorn flick.

Gotta go fast!!!!

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!
