Synopsis

In 1991, the Japanese video game developer SEGA released Sonic the Hedgehog, a game about a blue hedgehog who could run at magnificent speeds. This film marks Sonic’s big screen, live-action debut as our wisecracking, spiky hero enlists the help of a small-town police officer to help him evade capture from government officials, including the diabolical Dr. Robotnik who has plans to experiment on the one-of-a-kind Sonic. With a typically wacky performance from Jim Carrey, this action packed and colourful adaptation is true to the spirit of the original video game series whilst managing to send out strong messages about using your skills for good and adapting to new situations.

What our educators say

"We are currently screening The Wizard of Oz, profound film that it is, and the last film Wall-E. It's been rewarding observing the KS1 6 year olds run the gamut of emotions from wonder to sadness to joy. "
