A Sonic adventure

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022) is a great sequel and might be better than the first movie.

Ben Schwartz, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, and Idris Elba were all great as Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles. Sonic and Tails were great together and had a cute friendship.

Knuckles was funny in how he didn't understand most things but he is tough and wants to complete his quest for the Master Emerald.

Jim Carrey was still great as Dr. Robotnik/Eggman, he is still funny and gives a over the top performance that shows he is having fun with it.

The action scenes are fun and awesome seeing with Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles interacting off each other. Especially the Sonic vs Knuckles fight, it is worth seeing on the big screen.

The 3rd act is amazing and fun while also having Easter eggs from the games that Sonic fans will recognize and find funny. Also the different locations they go to are nicely shot.

The after credits scene is amazing and will get you excited for the future of the Sonic movie series. Sonic fans will love it.

The movie is fun, funny, and has epic moments that are worth seeing in the theater. The characters are likable and the human characters like James Marsden were also great and funny.
