As a film designed to cash in on the video-game character, this video is rather late. Sonic the Hedgehog's popularity reached its peak in the early to mid-nineties and has been in decline ever since.
This abomination of a film certainly won't cause the fans to return in droves. More likely it will alienate any of them who still remain.
The plot, or what passes for a plot, involves Sonic's enemy Dr Robotnik tricking the hedgehog into going down into the underworld where a robot Sonic is waiting. Sonic also has the worry of rescuing the princess from Robotnik's clutches.
They can all drop dead as far as I'm concerned. This is more like an early morning cartoon than a movie. The animation looks cheap and badly-drawn (the same pieces of animation used over and over again in some places), very little of interest seems to happen and the characters are so irritating and obnoxious you couldn't care less about any of them. The music is forgettable and the voices are below feeble - Tails sounds like he has a cold all the way through the movie, Sonic is a wailing adolescent and Robotnik has the most laughable attempt at a German accent I've ever heard. Add to that pathetic attempts at humour and the leaden 'action' scenes (which are like watching somebody playing a low-budget video game) and you have a turkey even Bernard Matthews wouldn't touch.
