MOVIES AT GRANDMA'S HOUSE NEWSLETTER

Hello, Movie Lovers!

Welcome to this week's Movies at Grandmas House newsletter! We're back with the thirty-third edition of "Grandma's Archives" where we continue celebrating films from our podcast—and this week, we're bringing you something extra special: our review of the best Sonic movie yet!

This week, we're unleashing chaos with the 2024 blockbuster, Sonic the Hedgehog 3. When Shadow the Hedgehog—the ultimate lifeform created by Dr. Robotnik's grandfather, Gerald Robotnik—emerges with devastating power and a thirst for revenge, Sonic faces his greatest challenge yet. Shadow's tragic past involving Maria and his quest for vengeance threaten the entire world, forcing Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles to team up in ways they never have before. With both Ivo and Gerald Robotnik scheming together, our heroes must find a way to reach Shadow before it's too late.

We gave this one an outstanding 4.5 out of 5 stars! Special thanks to Paramount for giving us an advance screening of what turned out to be the best entry in the trilogy. The action is dialed up to eleven, and Jim Carrey is better than ever, pulling double duty as both Robotnik and his unhinged grandfather Gerald—watching him play off himself is comedy gold. But the real star is SHADOW. Keanu Reeves voices him with the perfect balance of pain, rage, and tragic depth, and the film doesn't shy away from the darkness of his story. The Chaos powers action sequences are absolutely spectacular. This is peak video game movie adaptation—balancing humor, heart, and high-stakes action better than either previous entry. An absolute triumph!

Plus, we've found some amazing deals on movie posters from MoviePoster.com, Amazon, and more—check them out!

“This was amazing to see early in theatres. Jim Carrey’s acting is incredible playing the dual roles of Robotnik and his grandfather. The stakes are dialed up, and this time? Shadow! The series feels like he continues to get better and better."

“It's so well done they put this into a nice package and it's got a nice ribbon on it. It's like a cherry on the top of the ice cream for the series. It's just amazing just all the way through a pleasure to watch for Sonic fans!”
