Balder your standards are way too high to have a good time. This movie is easily a 7 if all you are looking for is entertainment. Basically like any Spider-Man movie, they are all 7s. Movies in the 7 range are hard to rewatch though. For me to watch a movie more than once it would have to pass a long time. Also if I watched this on YouTube I probably would give it a 4. How you watch a movie matters. My standards for movies like this aren't that high, but it's not that good. Bad characters and overall generic. It could have been much better. Of course all opinions are subjective though.

The link I posted with the film is already taken down. It stayed up for like 7 hours, which is pretty long considering how new the film is.

Honestly is kind of contradictory what I said because you are the one watching the movie on YouTube. So your standards may be not as high. That said, for me that's a hard no, watching a movie without good sound, and on a small screen is hard now. I would rate this movie very low if that's how I was watching it. Back in the 2000s I used to have a portable DVD player with a tiny screen. I would put some headphones, and I would be happy with that. I would actually enjoy watching movies this way. Now I have to have my Dolby Atmos my 4K, My 120 inches screen, or I would not enjoy it. It is dumb, I wish I could go back, but for some weird reason I can't.

Our review of this can be found right here. For a second I thought you made a YouTube video about it before I hit the link. Then I noticed you were just pointing him out the thread.

In fact the opposite is true, if a movie is good, it's good in any quality. And for your information I watched this hooked up to my TV so even though it isn't BD quality, it still is the best quality possible from a YT video. You could say that you simply disagree with me dude, but instead you blame my opinions on that I watched it the wrong way. I watch a lot of movies (over 300 movies so far this year alone) and I don't like movies tgat are generic. They need to do something unique to warrant their existence, and Sonic didn't do that.

I think you misread my paragraph. I said my statement was contradictory, not yours. I also said I totally get it you enjoy movies in small screens because I used to be that way. I even shared my story of how I used to have a tiny portable DVD player, and enjoyed it. In fact, I was the one saying my initial assessment wasn't correct, and that I would give the movie a 4 too if it wasn't for all the fancy equipment I have. I also agree we share different taste, I mean you like The Big Lebowski, that's some other dimension stuff I can't even begin to comprehend. On top of that I also think generic is good. Generic to me is like 7. If generic was 5 or 4 the movie industry would basically disappear because people would hate going to the theater, or paying for streaming services.

I didn't read your post thoroughly enough.

Good news, the movie was so well received that they started making a sequel already. It looks like some new friends are joining the team.

Idris Elba for the voice of Knuckles was a weird choice imo. knuckles' voice has never been that deeper than sonic's and Sonic can usually kick Knuckles' ass in a fight so why they made him this strong in the movie I don't know.

Interesting point, I haven't considered that, it actually makes sense, there is a little bit of discrepancy there.

My kids loved 2. Apparently, the second one did rather well at the box office.
