If the Hollywood mantra for making blockbusters is “faster, faster, faster,” then the creators of “Sonic the Hedgehog” have wisely ignored it.

But things didn’t look too good when a trailer dropped last April that portrayed Sonic as more rat-like with creepy human teeth. One great sequence ends with everyone agreeing on a common enemy: hipsters. “Sonic the Hedgehog,” a Paramount Pictures release, is rated PG for action, some violence, rude humor and brief mild language.

Sonic, the beloved '90s video game icon, got the facelift that fans have been clamoring for following the horrified backlash that the original "Sonic the Hedgehog" movie trailer received. Fans came down hard on the original design when the original trailer debuted back in late April.

"Sonic the Hedgehog" was originally slated to release on Nov. 8, but it was pushed back until Feb. 14, 2020, to accommodate for the redesign.
