Sonic the Hedgehog 2 [Movie Review]


Sonic the Hedgehog 2 [Movie Review] | Coincidently, I have just watched Sonic the Hedgehog during the last week of Ramadan. So, when the sequel comes out, it is by default that I should watch it, right?

Those growing up in the 80s and 90s love this hedgehog as it was all over in our faces, especially while playing TV games.

Months after being adopted by Tom and Maddie, Sonic is settling comfortably. But he still searches for the meaning of him being on Earth. So, he always sneaks out at night and roams the city, in search for crimes so that he could assist as a vigilante. But he did more destruction to the city, albeit him being successful to stop the crimes. Tom advises him to be patient for the day when his powers will be needed by the world. 

Tom and Maddie departs for Hawaii to attend Rachel's wedding (Maddie's sister). Sonic parties at home while his parents are away. But the party stops midway when Robotnik crashes in and attacks him, with the assistance of Knuckles, an Echidna. 

Knuckles despises Sonic as he thinks that Sonic is in kahoot with the enemy of his now extinct tribe. He holds Sonic responsible for that fact.

The duo demands the location of the legendary Master Emerald, an ancient relic that allows its possessor to bend reality to their will. 

An unlikely friend comes to Sonic's rescue - Miles 'Tails' Prower, a two-tailed fox who idolizes Sonic. Now the duo sets on find the emerald before the Robotnik-Knuckles duo do. 

During the journey, both groups meet in a snowy mountain before a fight ensues. Sonic calls Tom to have him open a portal so that Miles and him will not be buried under an avalanche. 

Turns out, Rachel's fiance, Randall is an undercover agent of the Guardian Units of Nations (G.U.N), bidding his time to capture Sonic and others.

With so many hurdles, can Sonic and his friends get their hands on Master Emerald? Or will Robotnik and Knuckles get it first?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 4.4/ 5.0 No new recipe here. It's about Sonic finding himself amidst the chaos. The story line is simple and nicely put.

Cast: 4.4/ 5.0 No complaint - but some tend to make the movie look like a comedy show, I think.

Will I Watch It Again: I most probably will, in the future.

The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.
