About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a fast, funny family adventure with big Sonic vibes and a wildly comedic villain like Spies in Disguise or Lightyear; Not for you if you expect a deep, original storyline.
Pros: fun family energy; speedy action; quirky villain comedy | Cons: messy/empty feel; generic script; uneven humor
