Once again they need to get off-planet and ditch the dorky human characters with low-brow Michael Bay Transformer movie-level humor. Move them to planet Morbius and let's make a PROPER Sonic movie.
Also to put things in perspective, the first movie was not a critical darling either. It found success because they fixed Sonic's design for the movie and Jim Carrey having a good performance for what seemed like the first time in about 20 years.
The first movie IMO was not great, but it was decent enough and not the complete disasters that Mortal Kombat 2021 and Resident Evil Welcome to Raccoon City were. For most video game movies kind of decent is almost like masterpiece level. So compared to past blunders, it seemed like a masterpiece.
Detective Pikachu wasn't terrible either, but it also didn't do well enough that they are rushing to make tons more Pokemon live-action films either.
I see your point about the human characters but then one critic complains the movie has too much Sonic. Its like they can't win with Video Game movies.

Too much Sonic is a dumb complaint, and whoever said that should be fired as a critic. It's a movie called Sonic [the Hedgehog 2] that's literally about Sonic (and Tails and Knuckles and Robotnik).
I don't think anyone complained there was too much Batman in a movie called The Batman.....
It's head and shoulders above the first movie in my humble opinion.Good to hear! The critics are being unkind to it so far which was bumming me out. I really liked the first one.
You guys DO know it's April Fool's Day right?Ah too bad, I was looking forward to a comeback of sorts with Ace Ventura 3 or The Mask 2 or any new dramatic work.
