Forums - Movies & TV - Sonic The Hedgehog movie getting similar reviews to Detective Pikachu, tied for 3rd place overall

That is better than I expected



duduspace11 "Well, since we are estimating costs, Pokemon Red/Blue did cost Nintendo about $50m to make back in 1996"

Mr Puggsly: "Hehe, I said good profit. You said big profit. Frankly, not losing money is what I meant by good. Don't get hung up on semantics"

Silent Hill is that low? Seems harsh.



And I thought the first res film was half decent.



Good video game movies now.

My favorites are probably Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter.
They were so bad that it made them good.

The worst one I've seen are probably Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li, and Dragonball Evolution.
They were so bad that it made them really really bad.

I plan to check out Sonic soon though. Sounds like a decent film, and I hope they get rewarded for reworking Sonic's look.

That whole thing seems like a publicity stunt from the start.

Just saw it, it was actually alright. Nothing spectacular but I had fun. Jim Carrey really stole the show, definitely the highlight of the movie.

Dragonball: Evolution isn't a videogame adaptation, it's an anime adaptation. 

But good to know Sonic is getting good praise, especially for a videogame adaptation, which are pretty much universally loathed. The common mantra is "you can't make a good videogame movie". Well, this one is sure well-liked.

And people marked this one down as a surefire dud after that awful teaser trailer (yes, it had more problems than just the godawful first design for Sonic). Way to prove the naysayers wrong.



I have seen neither Detective Pikachu nor the Sonic the Hedgehog movie cause I don't go to the movies anymore. Too expensive in my opinion.

But I won't mind watching both if/when they show up on Netflix over here.



Watched it yesterday. I never cared for Sonic games but the movie was a very good family film. Story was as unoriginal as it gets but it didn't matter, phasing was fluent and jokes were funny. Jim Carrey was hilarious :D What a dick. 

About that top10 list of vg movies.. Assassin's Creed really didn't make it? Surprised about that.

Also Silent Hill should have reviewed better. It wasn't that bad.
