Sonic 3: La película

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.

You can tell the people who made this movie care. They care about creating something true to the source material. They care about the fans and their enjoyment. They care about just making a good movie.

This third chapter in the series is a blast. We see continued escalation and expansion while balancing so many characters and story points. It could have easily been a jumbled mess, but it's so smooth.

Two things that jumped a level from previous entries: the action and the visuals. There are several beastly action scenes that had me grinning ear to ear. And so many shots are visually mesmerizing, even borderline trippy. And sometimes these two things overlap... like I said before, they care.

Jim Carrey is the GOAT. This is the third time I've written that in a Sonic review. With his ridiculously deep filmography, I never thought I'd say Dr. Robotnik is one of his best roles ever.

As long as they keep putting this much care into making these movies, I will watch as many as they want to make. Every other prospective video game adaptation needs to take notes.

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!

Wow, first impressions of the movie is that it definitely delivers on the hype. Somehow they managed to make this franchise even bigger than the previous.

This doesn't hold back on the fan service and Sonic fans like myself will definitely be pleased with how the story is handled, but also how they handle the characters, visuals, and even the music.

The human characters Tom and Maddie, are probably the only element in this movie I could have with or without. They don't really serve a big purpose other than to move the story along. But they're not horrible characters. I like them fine, they just don't have much screen time. But I'm also okay with that because we come to these movies to see Sonic and the gang.

Jim Carrey once again proves why he is the perfect casting for Doctor Eggman. And not only that but is pulling double duty in this movie. It's so much fun watching him play both characters and you can feel his energy in this role and how much he loves playing it. This is also his first role he's returned to for a 3rd time in his expansive career. It's nice to see he's still got it after all these years.

Keanu Reeves as the voice of Shadow is another amazing choice for this character. He really emulates Shadows complex character and tragic past. You can really feel the raw emotion from his performance. In all honesty, if Sega wanted to hire these voices to be in their next Sonic game, I wouldn't be disappointed. Not that their video game counterparts are bad, it's just how good the movie actors are in the roles.

The story in this movie is so well adapted and it really brings the emotion you want from the kind of story they're telling. Sonic in this movie is most like himself from the games than any other movie yet. This is great fun for any Sonic fan and/or for the family to go and see for the weekend.

The only complaint I really have is I wish the movie was a little longer so that it could really develop Shadow's story a little more and give it even more time to have even more weight to it. At times it felt a little rushed, but it overall was done really well. You still feel the emotional pull on the heart strings that they're trying to make the audience feel, I just wish there was more.

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.
