“Sonic the Hedgehog 2” improves on “Sonic the Hedgehog” in many ways, but falls short in a few others.

Sonic, Tails and Knuckles are all very entertaining, and Jim Carrey has a wonderfully exaggerated rendition of Dr. Ivo Robotnik. While it’s not known how long the film will take to bring out the rest of the human characters, it’s definitely taking longer than it currently does.
