Sonic The Hedgehog 3's Rotten Tomatoes Score Revealed As First Reviews Race Online

The review embargo for Sonic the Hedgehog 3 has lifted and we have some early verdicts on the threequel (via GameFragger.com) which adds Keanu Reeves' Shadow to the popular live-action/CG franchise.
Neither Sonic the Hedgehog nor Sonic the Hedgehog 2 were critical darlings, with the former scoring 64% on Rotten Tomatoes and the sequel sitting at a slightly fresher 69%. Early word on the threequel was extremely positive, and while the reviews themselves appear relatively mixed, most skew in the positive side.
Whether they even matter is up for debate as the series has its fans and they know exactly what to expect at this stage. With that in mind, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 essentially being more of the same won't necessarily cause it to stumble at the box office.
"No one will mistake the unimaginatively titled Sonic the Hedgehog 3 for sophisticated entertainment," reads The Hollywood Reporter's verdict.
