Sonic's screen debut manages to buck the trend of terrible video game adaptations with a delightful film that doesn’t try too hard to be too faithful to the game.
When the first trailer for Sonic The Hedgehog came out, I, and fans across the world, were mortified. Not only did that initial version of Sonic look nothing like the one we grew up playing on our consoles, he was borderline creepy, with human-looking teeth, aimless, soulless eyes that are the stuff of nightmares, and long, spindly legs that made him look like a two-legged blue antelope with quills.
The backlash from fans was so great that director Jeff Fowler decided to push back the film’s release date several months and go back to the drawing board, literally, to redesign a more game-accurate version of the character.
