Sonic The Hedgehog 3
The #10 biggest box office hit of 2024, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 returns the world’s fastest, bluest, most-beloved hedgehog to our screens in his most thrilling adventure yet.
This time, Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails reunite against a powerful new adversary, Shadow, a mysterious villain with powers unlike anything they have faced before. With their abilities outmatched in every way, Team Sonic must seek out an unlikely alliance in hopes of stopping Shadow and protecting the planet.
The movie has an 85% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says, “With a double helping of Jim Carrey's antics and a quicksilver pace befitting its hero, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 is the best entry in this amiable series yet.”
Ben Schwartz, Idris Elba and Keanu Reeves voice Sonic, Knuckles and Shadow respectively, with Jim Carrey is back in his Critics Choice Super Award-winning role as Dr. Ivo Robotnik (and another surprise character too).
