An action-packed slog

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The movie runs out of plot and jokes well before the end of a two-hour running time, long for a light comedy.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

At long last, I have found a TV series that is way better than that god-awful Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. What makes this well-known TV series better than the Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog? 1) The actors. Okay, Jaleel White still plays Sonic the Hedgehog, but at least he had a lot of fun and effort in it. You also get Christine Cavanaugh(From the Rugrats) as the karate-chopping Bunnie Rabbot, Jim Cummings(From Goof Troop) as the evil Doctor Eggman, Kath Soucie(Also from the Rugrats) as the beautiful Princess Sally Acorn, and Charlie Adler(From the Pound Puppies TV Special and Tiny Toon Adventures) as Dr. Eggman's nephew, Snively. 2) The animation. Effort! Honest to goodness effort! And the artwork is magnificent! 3) The plot. In Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, the plot has never, ever made any sense. In this show, it is very much related to the comic book series. Oh yeah, the plot has gotten better in this series. I wish this TV series would come back on TV. I want to see a lot more episodes adapted from the comic book series. Only in Anime style.

Okay, I have an account now, and I can't honestly think of a better use for it than to review a show starring my favourite game/TV/comic character: Sonic the Hedgehog. The second of three Sonic shows by DiC, it features the cast of the Archie comic series (though their original conception was for this show) and a more serious bend than the others. That's not to say that this is some overly emotional, crisis-every-day drama series. Heck no! Sonic and friends toss around phrases like "Let's do it to it!" and ham it up all the time. Honestly though, that's a part of what makes this show so entertaining: they can maintain serial-like plots without taking everything seriously all the time. Well, at first anyway (more on that later).The focus of the plot is that Dr. Ivo Robotnik has seized control of Mobius from its rightful rulers, and a band of freedom fighters have to join together to try and regain control. Our heroes are: Sonic, a blue hedgehog who happens to be the fastest thing alive. Tails, a two-tailed fox who hangs around and helps out once in a while. Sally, a creature of undeterminable species (she might be a chipmunk) who is the leader and the brains. Bunnie, a half-robot rabbit who has incredible strength and agility. Antione, another creature of indeterminable species (coyote?) who tries to guard Sally and help out, despite his cowardly streak. And, my personal favourite, Rotor, a walrus who acts as the mechanic and builds gadgets and junk and stuff of varying use.Now, for the meat and potatoes. First off, Season 1 is great. The characters were all very well balanced, and no one was over-exposed or ignored. Even characters like Tails, who didn't have much to offer other than moral support, got their due attention. The plots were interesting as well, and you could never really predict what was going to happen. There wasn't a single episode here I didn't like, which is more than can be said for most shows. However, not all is rosy. Animation mistakes are rampant, and while some are nitpicky others are hard to miss. Sally's eyes turn black, parts of objects/characters are coloured wrong, Sonic's lips move disconnectedly with his speech sometimes, and in one episode they gave Rotor ears! Now, in Season 2, there were several improvements, but also many bad changes. The animation mistakes are pretty much history (thank goodness), and the thematic musical score is actually good enough to notice. Sally has been redesigned slightly, and now sports a snazzy vest. Also, SpyHog id right up there with the best of Season 1. The good points pretty much end there, though. First on the negative side of things, we have a new freedom fighter called Dulcy the Dragon. Not only does she come out of nowhere with no explanation whatsoever, but she has a tendency to annoy with her "Hi, Ma!" jokes (as does Antione with his babbling). That's not at all the worst thing, though. Right off the bat, Rotor has been slapped with a bad redesign (go look up a picture. Ugh.), a generic new voice, and is shoved off so far into the sidelines that he hardly seems to be there. Actually, he does get to feature in one episode (well, more like 1/2. You'll see what I mean), but he acts completely out of character by being hotheaded and creepy. As the final curbstomp, he is also left out of the big hurrah in the last episode. Speaking of which, the show's conclusion is terrible. I won't spoil anything, but they really should have considered the possibility of there not being a third season.Despite all my venom about Season 2, I would still recommend this show in its entirety. Although it really isn't as good as Season 1 at all, it is still worth watching. If you're a Sonic fan, or just like well-made action shows, I would certainly recommend this.

Wow! This is a really cute, fun, and entertaining show based on a series of classic video games. I said that because I watch this on DVD with my 5-year-old nephew from time to time. It's hard to say which which episode I like the best. Still it's really cute, fun, and entertaining show based on a series of classic video games. Also, it's hard to say which mishap is my favorite. In addition, I love it when the line, "I hate that hedgehog!" is yelled. Before I wrap this up, I'd like to say that the people at DiC Enterprises and NCircle really know how to entertain children of all ages. Now, in conclusion, if you have children, nieces, or nephews, I strongly recommend this really cute, fun, and entertaining show based on a series of classic video games. I guarantee you that they will enjoy it.

What I'm referring to as the Golden Days is the days when "Sonic" (including "Underground") and "Pokemon" were THE HOTTEST AND COOLEST shows on television. Like any other kid of the rockin' 90's, I was in the cult of television shows based on wicked video games. At the time, they were the "Desperate Housewives" of the 90's for kids.Nowadays, we have the pooey "Sonic X" which just doesn't live up to this and "Sonic Underground" and "Pokemon" has crashed and burned now that they've added 493 more Pokemon as well as getting rid of old characters, added new dorky ones, turning Giovanni of Team Rocket into Jim Carrey and getting rid of the classic voice actors.However, "Sonic", "Sonic Underground" and the old school "Pokemon" (ie. when there was 150 Pokemon plus Mew and Togepi) will remain in my heart forever.Thank you for reading my cliché'ed comment and ranting.
