THE VERDICT
Synthesized from published reviews
The strongest entry in the franchise -- a film that finally gives its antagonist the kind of backstory and emotional weight the series had been building toward. Shadow's introduction reframes what the Sonic films can be, and the tonal shift toward something darker and more emotionally engaged suits the material. The returning cast is comfortable, and the final act earns the stakes it sets up. A sequel that made the case for the franchise continuing on its own terms.
