It looks better than Detective Pikachu that was a borefest.

I appreciate that the studios could have and should easily made a real Pokemon movie about Ash Ketchum and his journey to the Pokemon League - but those stupid fvckers in Hollywood can never seem to make a faithful-adaptation of anything.

They could've tried adapting one of the many GameBoy stories, too.

That's a great point.

i will pass unless jim carrey dies horribly in this

I'm going to go see this with my daughter. Fun, silly, and cheesy nostalgia.

Yeah I'm taking the wife and son go see this.

I remember 1991 vividly when Sonic came out it was the talk of the town.

I was 11 in 1991 and remember spending many fun hours on the Sonic games on my Genesis.

The trailers I’ve seen have been meh, which is to say, middle of the road, and I had these reactions...:

Sonic at least, doesn’t look creepy anymore.
Hey, it’s Jim Carrey!
Sonic is using the paddle ball cracked me up, tbh.
Damn, James Marsden almost had a career once.

Just got back from this and I was pleasantly surprised it wasn't so bad.

Anyone who saw it how would you rank the

My youngest kid is gonna go see this today. He seems pretty psyched.

Sounds like Sonic is doing better than expected and it's Cinemascore has risen to an A.

RT audience score is also 95%, despite the critics only gives it 60+.

It deserves to success for listening to the fans.

will anyone recommend this

I actually want to watch this. I grew up playing Sonic and this looks to be filled with cheesy and gooey nostalgia.

If you want classic Sonic nostalgia make sure you stay for the post credit scenes.

GOOD! Actually I was worrying about Jim Carrey 's personal style might affect this movie and he doesn't look like Eggman that much, but it seems to be fine based on the reviews.
