Fun Facts: When the first trailer came out, it received very negative feedback from the viewers, mainly due to Sonic’s cringy original design. So the movie has been delayed so the studio can redesign Sonic which then received positive feedback.

Tails, Sonic’s sidekick, appears in the post-credit scene.

The music from the ‘Green Hill Zone’ level from the game can be heard at one point in the movie.

Green Hills, Montana isn’t a real place.

Summary: A small town cop discovered a blue, speedy creature and teams up with him to take down a mad scientist.

The Review: Thanks to its redesign, the video game adaptation curse has been lifted by the film with heart and humor.
