Round Up: Reviews Dub Sonic 3 Movie the Best of the Trilogy

As a seasoned gamer with over three decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the anticipation for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is as exhilarating as a Super Star power-up! From the reviews trickling in, it seems that this third installment has truly outrun its predecessors. The addition of Shadow the Hedgehog (Keanu Reeves) and Jim Carrey’s dual role as both Ivo and Gerald Robotnik adds an extra layer of excitement to an already electrifying adventure.

Tomorrow, 20th December 2024, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 graces movie screens worldwide. With early reviews rolling out, I can’t help but wonder: Is this another heartwarming family film or merely a pale echo of its predecessors?

It appears that Sonic 3 is generally considered the superior one among the series. Although opinions may differ in reviews, a common theme seems to be that this third installment, featuring the introduction of Shadow the Hedgehog (Keanu Reeves), surpasses the first two games.

Acclaim is also showered upon Jim Carrey, as he not only repeats his portrayal of Ivo Robotnik, but also assumes the character of Gerald Robotnik, who created Shadow.

As a die-hard Sonic fan, I must admit that while some criticize the extensive cast of characters and certain repetitive storytelling aspects, most seem to concur that this latest live-action adaptation surpasses all previous ones in terms of quality.

Collider – 8/10

In this trilogy, it’s undeniably Jim Carrey who steals the show. His unique talent for spontaneous humor is put to great use here, with his over-the-top, comical portrayal of the villain standing out as a memorable aspect of his recent performances.

The Hollywood Reporter – 70

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 delivers its purpose effectively, making it an enjoyable distraction for families throughout the festive period.

Variety – 70

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 offers electrifying artificial entertainment. It’s a simple, child-friendly movie that matches the pace of your thoughts while playing video games.

Polygon – 63

It’s possible that the series follows an unusual rule: The less connected and more diverse the pieces of a Sonic movie seem, the more effectively they come together as a whole. This might be why Sonic the Hedgehog 3, surprisingly, stands out as the best among the current films.

IGN – 6/10

This Sonic sequel stands out from its predecessors due to funnier humor, more vivid visuals, and two exceptional comedic acts by Jim Carrey, making it a laugh-out-loud experience.

Total Film –

In the realm of gaming, this sequel is packed with characters clamoring for their moment in the limelight, but luckily, Jim Carrey’s offbeat, zany, and absolutely captivating performance makes it an enjoyable ride. This is a solid addition to a franchise that’s consistently growing, and I have no doubt we’ll be seeing more of it for years to come.

Empire –

Compared to its earlier versions, Sonic The Hedgehog 3 tries diligently to be entertaining, offering occasional bursts of brilliance, but it falls short in terms of originality and excitement. It’s more like an extended Saturday morning cartoon rather than something truly captivating.
