I’m a little concerned about the future of the franchise (both movie franchise and game franchise) but I honestly thought SM3 was . . Pretty good to say the least
I liked it more than Sonic 2 tbh. I mean it was quite similar but felt more refined. Obviously it had better pacing, less padding and most if not all the scenes served to move or add to the story. I also felt like it was less needlessly silly (Death Egg Robo doing a chicken dance for example). More emotion, better action, better pacing. Was just a better movie imo. Although I thought Sonic 2 was worst than the first when it came out so I guess we got very different opinions on this one
True but he can back up his differing opinions. Surprisingly I agree 100% with this review. I loved Sonic 3 but I came out of Sonic 2 waaaay more hyped than I did with the third movie. The mid credit scene was top notch!

Nah 3rd movie was way better, less human scenes and the filler scenes with robotnik and Gerald were actually good. The 2nd movie was so god awful you actually liked the wedding scenes dude? Lol so much nonsense in that movie like the Russian tavern dance scene Also more mature movie in general shadow holds a gun Maria dies. Only critique is NOBODY cared when shadow died they just said "Shadow and eggman sacrificed themselves" and that was it. Anyway hyped for the sonic heroes movie and remake
Just got out Movie 3 myself, and honestly, yeah this statement has weight imo lol Comments are grilling you. But if we're being real, the gap between Movie 2 & 3 is not THAT wide. It almost is thanks to toning down on the OC human shenanigans... but there's certain plot beats and decisions that kinda bring it down.
I think a lot of scenes suffered a small bit because of the runtime. They're kinda awkwardly introduced. Like the line that was used to introduce Shadow where "all he knows is pain". It sounds cool in the trailer, but in the movie, although still cool, it's awkwardly inserted
Sonic The Hedgehog 3 was an emotional roller coaster with some really sad moments with Shadow and Marias dynamic along with Jim Carry being his classic self with some very funny moments. The story was very simplified but its pacing worked well, they stepped it up a lot with the animation, and of course Kenau Reeves voice fit Shadow so perfectly. I was really impressed with how well Sonic Tails and Knuckles worked so much like a team. That last 20 minutes with Super Sonic Fighting Super Shadow and then teaming up to the sound of Live And Learn was just incredible. I give Sonic The Hedgehog 3 a 10/10 and it is the best Sonic movie yet.
Yeah.....no.... I'm sorry Prem, but you're on short end of the stick for this one. Even while mentally nitpicking and overthinking what "bad" parts there were in this movie (combined with a buttload of stress from work earlier that day), I still REALLY enjoyed the movie and was very glad that they found a brilliant balance between the hedgehogs, the humans, and the videogame/movie "curse", to tell a fun, unique, and compelling story, while still stay true to the source material without copying it too closely. To be honest, it doesn't matter THAT much to me what others think, knowing big name UA-camrs and other Sonic reviewers will eventually nitpick and tear apart this movie and frame as "bad" or "lazy" in some aspects in a couple of months, but I don't really care. It's better than movie 1&2 COMBINED. It got better with each film. It featured music from the games. It gave more references than ever before. And that's why I love it so much. Thank you for listening to my essay about the Sonic 3 Movie. :)
After seeing Sonic 3 for myself I can safely say that “almost as good as Sonic 2” is not even the case when there are so many scenes and moments that take Sonic 3 light years ahead of Sonic 2!
Only thing Sonic 2 did better than 3 was the comedy. Sonic 2 was so damn funny, especially with Knuckles constantly stealing scenes. But Sonic 3 doesn't need as much comedy IMO, because 3 is much more serious and higher stakes. 3 has a better plot than 2 IMO, and 3's character arcs and action is WAY BETTER than 2. So overall, 3 is the best IMO.
I agree, movie 2 has better pacing and structure. Movie 3 started of really quick, slowed down a bit and out of nowhere we were in act 3. I still think 3 is better overall tho
Now this is a premy video title of all time. Had the biggest grin on my face when i saw it. I expected no other flamming take from you. But i watch sonic movie 3 last night and holy moly i loved it to me its my personal favorite of the 3.
@EthanMastercrafter I somewhat get it. I'd describe it as movie one is a basic plot used more as a vehicle for Sonic and eggmans, two is a bunch of decent plots tied together to make a good one(with problems that entails), and movie 3 is a strong plot that's not developed enough.
I completely agree. Sonic 3 was great, but as a movie, Sonic 2 was better. Sonic 3's pacing was just wild.
День тому+7
I for real got goosebumps hearing Eggman’s theme and Live and Learn… and that ending though!! Something worth going to the theaters, which I have never done on day 1 before. I personally am leaning towards Sonic 3 being the best although that is most likely due to recent bias
After watching Movie 3 yesterday, while it has its issues, still the positives overweight the positives of Movie 2 imo. And negatives, only 3 I got was wish they explained Shadow’s backstory better cuz it was weird that GUN betray Gerald like that. If ur a hardcore fan, I guess u can map out on why GUN betray Gerald but if ur a causal, u might not guess it. Plus wish they at least kept Maria’s illness cuz without that, her tragic death doesn’t really hit as hard. Don’t get me wrong, I still love how well they shown Shadow n Maria friendship after they played skating, bakery angel, watching Bio-lizard movie, and watching the stars. But still if they just added Maria’s illness n promise, Shadow’s vow for Maria would have hit harder imo. And other two mistakes is ya why did Knuxs had to give the Master Emerald to Wade (Could have hidden it at Angel Island or at least at Tom’s place) and Gerald was just a waste imo. Even with those issues, I got a lot of positives like how well they done Tails. Unlike Movie 2, Tails finally ain’t some fanboy n I enjoy his relationship with Team Sonic. Tails obviously still was just there as a tech but I rather just have that than, “Only Sonic the Hedgehog would _”🙄. Knuxs was solid, only thing I still hate was him trusting Wade with the emerald but other than that, still cool n I wish Sonic box with Knuxs in the 3rd act. Sonic, 1st act was mid but then once Tom got punched, then 2nd n 3rd act is where he improved for me. Still not my all time favorite interpretation of Sonic but Ben done a good job after his talk with Shadow on the moon. Tom n Maddie were cool but I enjoy the moments in Movie 2 better where they hugged Sonic at the final battle with Eggy. Stone was great n I enjoy his talk with Tails about how both respect their heroes n hope he stays for Movie 4. Eggman n Gerald, Jim’s goofiness might be extra but his third act was amazing and I’m really gonna miss the goat. And even tho I dont like Gerald in this film, I do like that Jim gave 2 different acting chops for both robotniks unlike Mike Pollock for Sonic Generations remaster where literally Classic Eggman sound the same as Modern Eggy. Even with Gerald’s goofiness, I like it how Jim still gave Gerald a colder feel in the 3rd act and tells Eggman that he’s no Maria. And even tho Gerald’s death was 🤦🏾♂️imo, Eggman’s message to Stone n sacrifice was peak and I hope they don’t bring him back for Movie 4 cuz like how Heroes ruined Shadow’s sacrifice and Froniters with Sage, bringing back Eggy would wreck the emotional arc he had in the film. Humans were less annoying n obnoxious compared to the 2nd film (Tho I wish Rockwell had more screentime cuz I still don’t know wtf her deal is. Like is she still good with team Sonic or gonna be a threat in the future?). Shadow was PEAK. Still debating on whether this is my favorite interpretation of Shadow cuz Jason Shadow still exist but Keanu done justice with him. I think his change of being good compared to Knuxs is way better mostly cuz I love how Sonic n Shadow are talking on the moon looking at the stars n Shadow brought up Maria’s line at the end when the sun rises. Some peak fiction writing and the Super Sonic vs Super Shadow was immaculate along with their team up🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥. I love Movie Knuxs but my one gripe with him is that they made him kinda too goofy with the dumb warrior stick. I don’t mind it n at least he ain’t a r-word unlike Boom Knuxs, but compared to Shadow tho, I invested in his arc n talk with Sonic way more because Shadow wasn’t meant to be taken as a dumb goofy character. Bro gone through lost n I enjoy Keanu’s performance of bringing in the broken hedgehog to light throughout the film. And post credits, bit overhyped n wish both characters were introduced sooner, but I’m glad Amy n Metal are finally made it and can’t wait for Movie 4. Second post credits, it would have been more hype if they shown Rouge or Black Doom drag Shadow back to their home but guess Shadow being alive was cool, can’t wait for the solo Shadow project for more Keanu (Plzzz don’t be like Knuxs show🙏🏾😔). Overall tho to me, this film was a 10 out of 10 and I would rewatch it over n over again for more DBZ fun. I love it n it’s a great way to end off the year of the goat
Yeah, not sure anyone will agree with you about movie 2 being better. The humans took a much bigger back seat, no scenes are annoying, or cringey. And best action in any piece of any Sonic media. Knuckles is okay, just the comic relief, he best shines when he stands his ground against Sonic, but he rarely treats anything seriously.
I don’t agree with your point on this, completely excusable, Sonic 3 is much better than Sonic 2. You don't get it, this had an immense hype than anything Sonic 2 has to offer, it had the feeling since Avengers Endgame when the audience were being crazy as they cheer and roar when it's getting so much better. Sonic 3 is at a different level than Sonic 2 was at. You like Sonic 2 over Sonic 3? Bro this was peak over Sonic 2. It's literally the *best sh*t* for a video game adaptation I have ever seen. It was a 10/10 movie.
I mean its your opinion ion know why Sonic fans gotta hate they own community like that for havin a opinion like u sayin that u prefer a sonic movie over a sonic movie; These people got recency bias. I loved the shadow the hedgehog game references they put into the movie, But I too like the Sonic 2 movie a bit more imho
I definitely agree with Sonic Movie 2 being better than Movie 3. I was way more emotionally invested with the second film. The third feels more like a victory lap for the trilogy, but it was still really good nonetheless.
Nah I agree with prem on this one. I liked 3, but maybe the sonic movie effect has been lost on me or something. While I liked that scene, yeah that fight scene, and the music, I had a few issuers with the infiltration scene, mainly everyone just being able to get past the forcefiled that was supposed to be a problem or something. Lack of a certain ability was kind of disappointing. I was waiting for it but it never happened. And maybe also cuz I’ve played SA2 to death already, and it follows that so closely, it didn’t feel very surprising. Like it really followed it closely, but was lacking a few moments. The second movie may have had a bigger impact on me cuz it was the first time they followed the games pretty closely, but it also had room to be more inventive with its story while following the significant beats. It helps it was basically a combination of Sonic 2 and 3 rather than just 1 of the two, and those games had little story compared to SA2 where everything has basically been written out. I think 2 also had better pacing, and it lasted longer too. Maybe I think it was on par with the second movie, but I don’t think it was leagues better than it or anything, but I did really like THAT scene. Iykyk Edit: I tried to avoid spoilers cuz I hadn’t seen the vid so I didn’t know if there were spoilers or not, lol. Additionally one thing I will say I really liked about movie 3 were the themes of family / closeness and revenge.
Sonic 3 is the best movie of them yet. But I’m deeply concerned going forward, as now I feel any attempt to outdo Sonic 3 will result in jumping the shark. At a certain point, any TV show, music or movie will start to parody itself. After the world-ending threat of Sonic 3, I just hope they’re very careful with how they proceed. It’ll be very easy to go from Jaw 1 to Jaws: The Revenge, in terms of quality.
Good movie, about on par with 2, starts off good, mianders in the middle, but gets good again at the end, just like the second film Sonic 2 had less cringe scenes that lasted long, while sonic 3 has more cringe scenes but more spread out and shorter
Yall are so lame in the comments. I dont even agree with him, I think the movies get progressively better, but he can have an opinion. Its all extremely subjective. There were certainly things I thought was pretty silly in this movie too. Like the motorcycle and gun was literally just fan service, used for one scene. Well the motorcycle was anyway. Have no idea why he had the gun
Heres my rankings of the movies from worst to best Sonic movie 2- When its good its great but when its bad I just have to skip. The cabin scene gets my skip every single time and the human characters are aggressively annoying. However, knuckles is great and the 3rd act is on par with movie 3 third act Sonic movie 3- best action of all the films. Humans are way less annoying. Jim Carrey did great with the live stream scene. My biggest gripe is the same as premy's. Shadow isnt a highlight until act 3 for me which is unfortunate because the crumbs we get before act 3 are legitimately amazing (especially the flashback scenes). This movie would've been 10x better if it was shadow's movie just including team sonic Sonic movie 1- Extreme hot take but sonic movie 1 is still perfection in my eyes. It's the most disconnected from game lore of the bunch, but it excels at being its own thing. Tom and Sonic's relationship is at its peak here, and most human characters are more really endearing than annoying. The action, admittedly, is the weakest of the 3 but still is good. Also this movie is arguably the greatest turning point to something amazing for the entire sonic brand
Dude you're just off on this one. This is the only one of the films that actually wholeheartedly feels like a Sonic movie should, even though not everything is perfect or as it should be. The writing and pacing is leaps and bounds better than the previous two films and this is also the only one of them that has a lot of emotion and stakes to the plot.
My only issue is there are too many loose ends. Spoilers! Where did the emeralds go? How did sonic even know who Maria was when he was talking to shadow? I never heard him mention her. Why are G.U.N just suddenly never mentioned again after the mid point? Why didn't knuckles wonder where the chaos emeralds went?
Sonic Movie 3 is phenomenal and my favorite of the trilogy Some spoilers here: Oh man where do I even begin, I really love cute moments we got to see with Shadow and Maria dancing together, Shadow taking Maria for a skate, them sitting in a blanket tent together watching a movie *(someone pointed out that the monster in the movie they were watching is actually a reference to Biolizard since Shadow compared himself to it)* all and all they really did a fantastic job with Shadow and Maria’s relationship!🥹 The shapeshifting disguises that Tom and Maddie had were the coolest thing ever! Double the Jim Carrey was double the fun, and it’s a cool parallel to Sonic and Shadow both being Hedgehogs.
The theater I was in was full of casuals and parents surprisingly all the kids knew a lot about the characters and by the credits everyone applauded that damn near never happens at any theaters in my city the most you’ll get is a quiet “that was a good movie.” As for me the movie surpassed my expectations and I had some high expectations
i respect your opinion man, honestly this movie surpass my expectations, its way faster than movie 1 and 2 and the action scenes and music just went so hard, the humans were actually pretty nice, i just dident like eggman and Geralds goofy behaviour towards the end
Everyone glazing tf out of 3. I’d give both 2 and 3 a 7/10 so ig they’re tied for me but 3 had so many issues. The pacing was the worse in the series, eggman and Gerald scenes ruined a lot of the impactful moments, shadow didn’t have nearly as much of a character arc as knuckles due to the slightly shorter run time amongst other things. Overall the action and spectacle of this movie was by far the best we’ve seen but it had the most outright issues for me out of any of the movies
Sonic 2 has the wedding scene and the dancing scene. Absolutely zero Sonic music. Super Sonic lasts 10 seconds and is used for a dumb joke after the cool 10 second part. Sonic 3 is peak. Just peak. So I’m just looking at this and thinking something something Heroes and Adventure 1 glazing something something Adventure 2 not favourite bias... 🙂↔️
@@premydaremyThe only thing I think Movie 2 does better is pacing and structure. Movie 3 is just better in every other way imo. But I respect your opinion.
@11:00 for me the three sonic movies are like the 3 genisis games. 2,3,1 they are all good and have there good points but 2 I played way more then 3&k. I only went to 1 whenever I wanted to hear that sweet music and do a play through challenge from 1-3&k
I liked both of them pretty much equally. I’m a tad biased for Sonic 2 because the hype surrounding it was much stronger than 3’s, and I went into 2 with higher expectations.
The heroes movie and the potential heroes remake??? Are we gonna eat in 2027 🔥 Don’t agree I’d put 3>2 but y’all can’t we respect opinions he explained his thoughts well enough lol
I kinda agree with ya honestly. Sonic 3 was badass as hell but it also felt just a liiittttttle unfocused at times. Also no Maria “give them a chance to be happy” speech to shadow is a bit of a disappointment, as well as “Maria this is what you wanted right?” Being missing as well, those moments would’ve hit so much harder if we got that. I feel like shadow’s sacrifice just wasn’t nearly as emotional as sa2. The movie is great tho just to make that clear, I hope it will continue the trend of mending the franchise’s reputation to the casuals. I just love shadow and his characterization a lot
I personally prefer both a great story and action. Now that the trilogy is released, I will set aside time to watch all three films roughly back to back. I know that a fan "Prim" who wants the best franchise of the franchise will give an honest rating of the trilogy and I will watch those next year.
Ngl the end part was such a banger 😤 the music and fight was epic. Then they cut back to Jim Carrey's two characters doing stupid shit and it just killed the whole vibe :/ but that's my only complaint tbh was Jim Carrey being too goofy as always. Otherwise... Sonic 3 > Sonic 2
I'm in agreement with you for the most part. It wasn't as faithful a recreation of sa2 as it could have been. Iconic locations were ditched in favor of London. The new original music was lacklustre, and the climax was missing a titan style boss to defeat like Movie 2.
Movie 3 has better character writing, better music, better CGI and better story! (+lots of references and eastereggs) (but I think movie Shadow could have been handled better) Movie 2 underdelivered Tails , had a slow paced story, had little action moments and there was way less references to the games
Sonic 3 is the best movie of the trilogy, but yeah, I still have issues with it. Mainly, that too many important plot elements are treated as a joke. They really need to tone down the gags, too. If this is turned down from the other 2 films, then I've forgotten what those movies did since by the end, I was starting to get a little tired of the gags. Personally as a shadow and maria fan. Shadows whole backstory and all that, only a tv series or feature film focused on shadows backstory showing him and maria bonding as siblings/friends would ever be able to satisfy that really specific demand I have. Overall, i did enjoy myself a lot, and the 3rd act action alone is worth the price of admission alone.
Let me know what you guys think about the movie, and the Sonic movie franchise as a whole!
sonic 2 has the downtime with the wedding, meanwhile sonic 3 is constantly getting more and more exciting, besides the 16 seconds of wade i guess.
I’m a little concerned about the future of the franchise (both movie franchise and game franchise) but I honestly thought SM3 was . . Pretty good to say the least
Also 0:00 is that a Long-Spine Frontiers Sonic? How’d you even do that?
It was a good family movie, but not that great as a Sonic Story
It’s 100% my favourite Sonic movie so far!
Saying that it’s almost as good as sonic 2 is insane work.

Tails obviously still was just there as a tech but I rather just have that than, “Only Sonic the Hedgehog would _”🙄. Knuxs was solid, only thing I still hate was him trusting Wade with the emerald but other than that, still cool n I wish Sonic box with Knuxs in the 3rd act. Sonic, 1st act was mid but then once Tom got punched, then 2nd n 3rd act is where he improved for me. Still not my all time favorite interpretation of Sonic but Ben done a good job after his talk with Shadow on the moon. Tom n Maddie were cool but I enjoy the moments in Movie 2 better where they hugged Sonic at the final battle with Eggy. Stone was great n I enjoy his talk with Tails about how both respect their heroes n hope he stays for Movie 4. Eggman n Gerald, Jim’s goofiness might be extra but his third act was amazing and I’m really gonna miss the goat. And even tho I dont like Gerald in this film, I do like that Jim gave 2 different acting chops for both robotniks unlike Mike Pollock for Sonic Generations remaster where literally Classic Eggman sound the same as Modern Eggy. Even with Gerald’s goofiness, I like it how Jim still gave Gerald a colder feel in the 3rd act and tells Eggman that he’s no Maria. And even tho Gerald’s death was 🤦🏾♂️imo, Eggman’s message to Stone n sacrifice was peak and I hope they don’t bring him back for Movie 4 cuz like how Heroes ruined Shadow’s sacrifice and Froniters with Sage, bringing back Eggy would wreck the emotional arc he had in the film. Humans were less annoying n obnoxious compared to the 2nd film (Tho I wish Rockwell had more screentime cuz I still don’t know wtf her deal is. Like is she still good with team Sonic or gonna be a threat in the future?).
Shadow was PEAK. Still debating on whether this is my favorite interpretation of Shadow cuz Jason Shadow still exist but Keanu done justice with him. I think his change of being good compared to Knuxs is way better mostly cuz I love how Sonic n Shadow are talking on the moon looking at the stars n Shadow brought up Maria’s line at the end when the sun rises. Some peak fiction writing and the Super Sonic vs Super Shadow was immaculate along with their team up🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥. I love Movie Knuxs but my one gripe with him is that they made him kinda too goofy with the dumb warrior stick. I don’t mind it n at least he ain’t a r-word unlike Boom Knuxs, but compared to Shadow tho, I invested in his arc n talk with Sonic way more because Shadow wasn’t meant to be taken as a dumb goofy character. Bro gone through lost n I enjoy Keanu’s performance of bringing in the broken hedgehog to light throughout the film.
And post credits, bit overhyped n wish both characters were introduced sooner, but I’m glad Amy n Metal are finally made it and can’t wait for Movie 4. Second post credits, it would have been more hype if they shown Rouge or Black Doom drag Shadow back to their home but guess Shadow being alive was cool, can’t wait for the solo Shadow project for more Keanu (Plzzz don’t be like Knuxs show🙏🏾😔). Overall tho to me, this film was a 10 out of 10 and I would rewatch it over n over again for more DBZ fun. I love it n it’s a great way to end off the year of the goat
Damn sonic fans (the comments) really dont like opinions huh?
Yeah, not sure anyone will agree with you about movie 2 being better. The humans took a much bigger back seat, no scenes are annoying, or cringey. And best action in any piece of any Sonic media. Knuckles is okay, just the comic relief, he best shines when he stands his ground against Sonic, but he rarely treats anything seriously.
The Robotnik laser dance scene was definitely cringe lmao
@@premydaremy I guess it's just down to preference, cause I thought that shit was hilarious.
@@were-hogisgood9073Yeah I liked that scene it was stupid in a good way
@@premydaremythe dance scene in Sonic 2 was way worse
I don’t agree with your point on this, completely excusable, Sonic 3 is much better than Sonic 2. You don't get it, this had an immense hype than anything Sonic 2 has to offer, it had the feeling since Avengers Endgame when the audience were being crazy as they cheer and roar when it's getting so much better. Sonic 3 is at a different level than Sonic 2 was at. You like Sonic 2 over Sonic 3? Bro this was peak over Sonic 2. It's literally the *best sh*t* for a video game adaptation I have ever seen. It was a 10/10 movie.
I mean its your opinion ion know why Sonic fans gotta hate they own community like that for havin a opinion like u sayin that u prefer a sonic movie over a sonic movie; These people got recency bias.
I loved the shadow the hedgehog game references they put into the movie, But I too like the Sonic 2 movie a bit more imho
Sonic 2 is a pretty good 7 /10 for me.
Sonic 3 meanwhile is a really good 8/10.
Ain’t a masterpiece but it sure is an exhilarating watch
i respect your opinion
Prem just salty Wade was in the movie 😂 Wouldn't have been a true trilogy without him!
I can’t be the only person who enjoys wade as a character
I definitely agree with Sonic Movie 2 being better than Movie 3. I was way more emotionally invested with the second film. The third feels more like a victory lap for the trilogy, but it was still really good nonetheless.
2's credits are massively better. Difference might even be day and night.
Nah I agree with prem on this one. I liked 3, but maybe the sonic movie effect has been lost on me or something. While I liked that scene, yeah that fight scene, and the music, I had a few issuers with the infiltration scene, mainly everyone just being able to get past the forcefiled that was supposed to be a problem or something. Lack of a certain ability was kind of disappointing. I was waiting for it but it never happened. And maybe also cuz I’ve played SA2 to death already, and it follows that so closely, it didn’t feel very surprising. Like it really followed it closely, but was lacking a few moments.
The second movie may have had a bigger impact on me cuz it was the first time they followed the games pretty closely, but it also had room to be more inventive with its story while following the significant beats. It helps it was basically a combination of Sonic 2 and 3 rather than just 1 of the two, and those games had little story compared to SA2 where everything has basically been written out. I think 2 also had better pacing, and it lasted longer too. Maybe I think it was on par with the second movie, but I don’t think it was leagues better than it or anything, but I did really like THAT scene. Iykyk
Edit: I tried to avoid spoilers cuz I hadn’t seen the vid so I didn’t know if there were spoilers or not, lol. Additionally one thing I will say I really liked about movie 3 were the themes of family / closeness and revenge.
Sonic 3 is the best movie of them yet. But I’m deeply concerned going forward, as now I feel any attempt to outdo Sonic 3 will result in jumping the shark.
At a certain point, any TV show, music or movie will start to parody itself.
After the world-ending threat of Sonic 3, I just hope they’re very careful with how they proceed. It’ll be very easy to go from Jaw 1 to Jaws: The Revenge, in terms of quality.
Did you lose a lot of weight?
You look good.
Good movie, about on par with 2, starts off good, mianders in the middle, but gets good again at the end, just like the second film
Sonic 2 had less cringe scenes that lasted long, while sonic 3 has more cringe scenes but more spread out and shorter
Prem have you been hitting the gym?
Yeah when he showed his 2020 and 2022 flashbacks i was like “wow bro has been working on himself niceeeee”
@ I’ve been noticing on the streams but I see it even now here cause of how close the camera is
The kids part at the end is so right
“Can’t keep their mouth shut”bro is the reason I had tails spoiled for me in the first movie😭
Yall are so lame in the comments. I dont even agree with him, I think the movies get progressively better, but he can have an opinion. Its all extremely subjective. There were certainly things I thought was pretty silly in this movie too. Like the motorcycle and gun was literally just fan service, used for one scene. Well the motorcycle was anyway. Have no idea why he had the gun
I see where you’re coming from but if you have a terrible opinion expect to get made fun of lol
Sonic 2 was great, but movie 2 way WAAAY better. Live and Learn playing in it was a dream come true.
Prem you tryna be different so bad with this review 😭 still love ya man
Nah i genuinely prefer movie 2, like sure movie 3 was epic, but i felt it was messy and just too short, also maria’s actor wasn’t that great,
Heres my rankings of the movies from worst to best
Sonic movie 2- When its good its great but when its bad I just have to skip. The cabin scene gets my skip every single time and the human characters are aggressively annoying. However, knuckles is great and the 3rd act is on par with movie 3 third act
Sonic movie 3- best action of all the films. Humans are way less annoying. Jim Carrey did great with the live stream scene. My biggest gripe is the same as premy's. Shadow isnt a highlight until act 3 for me which is unfortunate because the crumbs we get before act 3 are legitimately amazing (especially the flashback scenes). This movie would've been 10x better if it was shadow's movie just including team sonic
Sonic movie 1- Extreme hot take but sonic movie 1 is still perfection in my eyes. It's the most disconnected from game lore of the bunch, but it excels at being its own thing. Tom and Sonic's relationship is at its peak here, and most human characters are more really endearing than annoying. The action, admittedly, is the weakest of the 3 but still is good. Also this movie is arguably the greatest turning point to something amazing for the entire sonic brand
Dude you're just off on this one. This is the only one of the films that actually wholeheartedly feels like a Sonic movie should, even though not everything is perfect or as it should be. The writing and pacing is leaps and bounds better than the previous two films and this is also the only one of them that has a lot of emotion and stakes to the plot.
My only issue is there are too many loose ends. Spoilers!
Where did the emeralds go?
How did sonic even know who Maria was when he was talking to shadow? I never heard him mention her.
Why are G.U.N just suddenly never mentioned again after the mid point?
Why didn't knuckles wonder where the chaos emeralds went?
Why did knuckles not just burrow under the G.U.N shield?
@MikeSpruce Good question. Maybe it was a sphere and went under the ground but we couldn't see that?
Sonic Movie 3 is phenomenal and my favorite of the trilogy
Some spoilers here:
Oh man where do I even begin, I really love cute moments we got to see with Shadow and Maria dancing together, Shadow taking Maria for a skate, them sitting in a blanket tent together watching a movie *(someone pointed out that the monster in the movie they were watching is actually a reference to Biolizard since Shadow compared himself to it)* all and all they really did a fantastic job with Shadow and Maria’s relationship!🥹
The shapeshifting disguises that Tom and Maddie had were the coolest thing ever!
Double the Jim Carrey was double the fun, and it’s a cool parallel to Sonic and Shadow both being Hedgehogs.
The theater I was in was full of casuals and parents surprisingly all the kids knew a lot about the characters and by the credits everyone applauded that damn near never happens at any theaters in my city the most you’ll get is a quiet “that was a good movie.”
As for me the movie surpassed my expectations and I had some high expectations
This is the second movie in my life where people clapped at the end
i respect your opinion man, honestly this movie surpass my expectations, its way faster than movie 1 and 2 and the action scenes and music just went so hard, the humans were actually pretty nice, i just dident like eggman and Geralds goofy behaviour towards the end
Everyone glazing tf out of 3. I’d give both 2 and 3 a 7/10 so ig they’re tied for me but 3 had so many issues. The pacing was the worse in the series, eggman and Gerald scenes ruined a lot of the impactful moments, shadow didn’t have nearly as much of a character arc as knuckles due to the slightly shorter run time amongst other things. Overall the action and spectacle of this movie was by far the best we’ve seen but it had the most outright issues for me out of any of the movies
These comments corny asl 🤣 Prolly how I used to sound when I was ultra into games
Yeah it's sad how everyone nowadays online sounds the exact same, spamming the same few buzzwords over and over
I don't agree to you movie 3 is wayyyy better it's so good that my heart was racing! Like omg
How does this man like movie 2 better bro like omg
Sonic 3 destroys sonic 2 on all levels haft to disagree with you on this one. Best movie yet
Sonic 2 has the wedding scene and the dancing scene. Absolutely zero Sonic music. Super Sonic lasts 10 seconds and is used for a dumb joke after the cool 10 second part.
Sonic 3 is peak. Just peak.
So I’m just looking at this and thinking something something Heroes and Adventure 1 glazing something something Adventure 2 not favourite bias... 🙂↔️
If anything Movie 3 is more of a Heroes movie than Movie 2 with all those Team Sonic scenes so don't go there
@@premydaremyThe only thing I think Movie 2 does better is pacing and structure. Movie 3 is just better in every other way imo. But I respect your opinion.
ALMOST as good as 2? Did you forget the wade and wedding scene???
Sonic 3 was FAR Better than that silly dance off/wedding cringe movie that is Sonic 2.
@11:00 for me the three sonic movies are like the 3 genisis games. 2,3,1 they are all good and have there good points but 2 I played way more then 3&k. I only went to 1 whenever I wanted to hear that sweet music and do a play through challenge from 1-3&k
when was the last time you watched movie 2?
Prem we all disagree with you on this one this movie was fire and every scene was interesting. This movie is at least 8-9/10
Anything Sonic Adventure 2, I'll love.
[[POSSIBLE SPOILER, I'M NOT SURE]]
Both end credits had me flabbergasted 💀
That Eggman and Stone moment was giving 😭😭
Yeah nahhh nobody thinks sonic 2 is better. Sonic movie 3 is objectively way better. Sorry
Sonic movie 3 in my opinion is far better than Sonic 2. I respect your opinion Premy but I highly disagree with Sonic 2 being better.
Sonic 3 is the closest to live action dbz we getting
Sonic CD movie gonna go crazy tho bro
I completely disagree, Sonic 3 is much better in every way
Name one way lmao
@@WrecklezzENT3 words..Live and Learn
@@BLUESTREAK91 lmao you play smash?
@@WrecklezzENT Yea what of it?
@BLUESTREAK91 let's play sometime have some ggs with me
Sonic 3 awesome! Better then mufasu the lazy king 😂😂😂
I liked both of them pretty much equally. I’m a tad biased for Sonic 2 because the hype surrounding it was much stronger than 3’s, and I went into 2 with higher expectations.
The heroes movie and the potential heroes remake??? Are we gonna eat in 2027 🔥
Don’t agree I’d put 3>2 but y’all can’t we respect opinions he explained his thoughts well enough lol
I kinda agree with ya honestly. Sonic 3 was badass as hell but it also felt just a liiittttttle unfocused at times. Also no Maria “give them a chance to be happy” speech to shadow is a bit of a disappointment, as well as “Maria this is what you wanted right?” Being missing as well, those moments would’ve hit so much harder if we got that. I feel like shadow’s sacrifice just wasn’t nearly as emotional as sa2. The movie is great tho just to make that clear, I hope it will continue the trend of mending the franchise’s reputation to the casuals. I just love shadow and his characterization a lot
I’ve never been the guy to believe the “prem says things just to be different” allegations but that sonic 2 vs sonic 3 take is absurd lol
I personally prefer both a great story and action. Now that the trilogy is released, I will set aside time to watch all three films roughly back to back. I know that a fan "Prim" who wants the best franchise of the franchise will give an honest rating of the trilogy and I will watch those next year.
Sonic 2 looks so mid in comparison. I feel like you're basing everything on your immediate theater reactions for both films.
Atrocious take
When I saw the polygon Shadow in the credits I thought of you lmao
Ngl the end part was such a banger 😤 the music and fight was epic. Then they cut back to Jim Carrey's two characters doing stupid shit and it just killed the whole vibe :/ but that's my only complaint tbh was Jim Carrey being too goofy as always. Otherwise... Sonic 3 > Sonic 2
Just saw Sonic Movie 3! This is perhaps the greatest video game movie adaptation I’ve ever seen!
I’m not gonna be mean but the third movie made the first two look bad
Sonic movie 2 was my favorite until Sonic 3 came out. Now Sonic 3 is my favorite movie.
Dude, looking at you at 2020 and 2022, you lost a lot of weight man. Keep it up man you look great.
I can’t believe we’re basically getting a Heroes movie in 2.5 years 😭
the last 20 minutes felt like a dragon ball z episode
Premydaremy
Sonic The Hedgehog 3
Almost good as Sonic 2
Every Sonic fan: No
I'm in agreement with you for the most part. It wasn't as faithful a recreation of sa2 as it could have been. Iconic locations were ditched in favor of London. The new original music was lacklustre, and the climax was missing a titan style boss to defeat like Movie 2.
Sonic movie 3 is the greatest video game movie of all time, and the best Sonic movie yet
Movie 3 has better character writing, better music, better CGI and better story! (+lots of references and eastereggs)
(but I think movie Shadow could have been handled better)
Movie 2 underdelivered Tails , had a slow paced story, had little action moments and there was way less references to the games
I need to collab with hotline sehwani tbh
"Almost as good"
??????????????????????????
Sonic 3 was way better than Sonic 2.
We need Rouge the Bat in the 4th movie.
Sonic 3 is the best movie of the trilogy, but yeah, I still have issues with it. Mainly, that too many important plot elements are treated as a joke. They really need to tone down the gags, too. If this is turned down from the other 2 films, then I've forgotten what those movies did since by the end, I was starting to get a little tired of the gags.
Personally as a shadow and maria fan. Shadows whole backstory and all that, only a tv series or feature film focused on shadows backstory showing him and maria bonding as siblings/friends would ever be able to satisfy that really specific demand I have.
Overall, i did enjoy myself a lot, and the 3rd act action alone is worth the price of admission alone.
