Sonic the Hedgehog 2020
All the film snobs types crapping on this movie clearly don’t understand that they aren’t the target demographic. It’s for kids, even if Sonic was something you grew up with and they haven’t.

With that expectation going into Fallout, I wasn’t sure if they could top the last two movies in the series. I’m happy to say that it not only does does that, but it raises the bar for all action series and serves as a blueprint going forward as to how to make…
