Charming, humorous in spots, striking visuals that will play well on the best quality screens, and captures the myths of Sonic very well from the personality side. Faster than the speed of sound and constantly exerting crazy amounts of kinetic energy, Sonic feels just like the characters I grew up controlling on my ancient Sega game console. Kids will love seeing him rip and run all over the screen and his cheesy wisecracks. Speaking of cheese, the comedy is swimming…

87 minutes of pure wasteful filler. The screenplay is an absolute travesty relying on dated pop culture references and rundown cliches to garner a weak laugh. Most scenes play out with Issa and Kumail yelling at each other while wasting everyone’s time with dead end tangents.

Chastain was a supernova force that took over Sorkin's witty and enthusiasm filled screenplay and made it into a definitive career performance. Tasked with being the heartbeat of the film, she creates something magical in each scene that renders every other actor obsolete; outside of a couple of strong monologues from Idris Elba, this is Chastian's canvas. Sorkin provides another exhibit of smarts, intelligence, drama, and little sprinkles of humor to command attention until the final frame. The only fault…
