“Sonic the Hedgehog” is a 2020 live-action/animated adventure film based on the popular video game franchise of the same name. The movie was directed by Jeff Fowler and written by Pat Casey and Josh Miller. It stars Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog, James Marsden as Tom Wachowski, Sonic’s human ally, and Jim Carrey as Dr. Robotnik, Sonic’s arch-nemesis.
The plot of the movie revolves around Sonic, a super-fast, blue anthropomorphic hedgehog who comes to Earth to escape from the villainous Dr. Robotnik. Sonic teams up with Tom Wachowski, a small-town sheriff, to stop Robotnik from capturing him and using his powers to take over the world.
The movie received mixed reviews from critics and audiences. Some praised the film’s fast-paced action, humor, and performances, particularly Jim Carrey’s over-the-top portrayal of Dr. Robotnik. However, others criticized the movie’s story and script, and some fans of the video game franchise were disappointed with the changes made to the character of Sonic.
Despite the mixed reception, “Sonic the Hedgehog” was a commercial success, grossing over $300 million worldwide.
