Why are old people qualified to critique animated movies aimed at kids? makes no sense to me 

Same way old people create these animated movies aimed at kids?

 

Its not hard to see what kids enjoy and pander to them, same way not hard pointing out when pandering failed/succeed.  

[Puttanesca]

Should have released Odyssey 2 instead

Eh, at least it's keeping the franchise alive. Might not be an oscar worthy movie, but I hope it's at least entertaining.

From what I've seen, most of the main criticisms are:

 

• jokes fall flat
• movie feels soulless
• it feels like it's just going through a list of references from the games

[Konril]

This still will make bank, I'm afraid...

[Rev8]

 

Sonic WON

[Frozen99]

the movie looked cool, we found my bf's old nintendo and been playing super mario galaxy and mario kart and ofc i've loved it as a kid.. hm, i'll wait and see i guess. ******* pRatt

This movie getting acclaimed would have been the surprise, it was always going to be panned. The audience scores should be interesting. 

[poki]

Sonic stans right now:

 

[Kylizzle]

This being lower than every Minions and the first Boss Baby is killing me

[Arcadius]

Not the panned reviews. 

 

Oh well, I’m still gonna see it not like I was expecting a masterpiece.

[mystery]

This movie is critic proof.

[D/X]

Lmao what were y'all expecting? This is Illumination after all, **** ass scripts one after another.

 

Nintendo should take the loss for collaborating with them. At least it looks nice.

I mean I’m not going to see this for the plot but mostly for the visuals, it will make a bank or at least $700M and guarantee a sequel but they will need to step up.

[Poxy]

Illumination is poison. I blame them. I remember when I first heard illumination was behind it, it was a steep uphill battle

[Kylizzle]

This is bad no matter how you spin it. It's not even top 10 for Illumination movies by score nnnn.

The audience wants a Zelda movie made by Studio Ghibli

But this thread told me EVERY Illumination movie is panned and this was par for the course

[Virgos Groove]

[Miles.]

Oh no.  Well, I'll still check it out, hopefully it's a pleasant surprise.

 

I guess we should've known with Crisp Rat involved
