After the incredible internet backlash over the look of the first-release version of the titular character, what emerges is a polished, well-thought out and surprisingly enjoyable movie of its type. James Marsden revisits Hop territory, playing effectively against a CGI Sonic in a real-world setting with his usual skill and charm, and the playing of Sonic as an enthusiastic and likeable young teenager works very well. Jim Carrey does his usual panto-villain schtick, which mostly stays just about on the right side of watchable. Overall, Sonic The Hedgehog is well-made and looks great, unusually has plenty of story for this type of film, the human and CG leads are both very engaging, and it is a lively and enjoyable if disposable watch.
