Yes, I know it's Sunday. You don't have to remind me. I missed my Amazon
Friday film two days ago, so I'm catching up now. The reason is simple. My son
Benjamin was visiting me. He's also a member of Amazon Prime, so when he
visits me he wants to watch one of my many films on Blu-ray. I picked
"Horsemen of the Apocalypse"
for him. I'd already selected "Sonic the Hedgehog" for Friday, so I'm
watching it today. Better late than never. Isn't that what they say?
This is a comedy caper based on a video game. A blue hedgehog called Sonic
flees from enemies on his homeworld and hides on Earth; specifically, he hides
in Green Hills, Montana. He avoids detection for ten years, until one evening
he accidentally creates an electromagnetic pulse while playing baseball with
himself. There's a power outage in the whole of the Pacific North West region.
The government calls for the eccentric scientist Dr. Robotnik to find
the cause.
This is a wonderful film that kept me laughing from beginning to end. Jim
Carrey's portrayal of Dr. Robotnik annoyed me at first, but I got used
to it as the film progressed. I have to compare this film with
"Godzilla vs Kong", which I watched in the cinema yesterday. The plot is just as infeasible,
but in the context of a comedy it's acceptable. Despite being a comedy, all
the main characters are fully developed. This is how a film should be made.
