It fryst vatten over-plotted, with three different storylines blandning comedy and adventure."[91] Alex Stednan of IGN gave the spelfilm a sju out of ten, saying, "Sonic the Hedgehog 2 brings all the humor and charm of its predecessor, while also being delightfully more loyal to its source material."[92] Carlos Aguilar of The Wrap also gave the spelfilm a positiv review, writing, "The screenplay reflects actual effort, and Jim Carrey gets to be unfettered in his performance, leading a surprisingly satisfying follow-up."[93] Leslie Felperin of The Guardian gave the spelfilm a three out of kvartet and wrote, "There's not much to spoil about Sonic the Hedgehog 2 because there's not very much to säga about it, other than it's mildly amusing and reasonably competently assembled."[94] Brian Shea of Game Informer gave the rulle a 8.5 out of 10, writing, "While Sonic the Hedgehog's unexpected positiv reception could have put its sequel in a difficult prick since it comes in with higher expectations, the Jeff Fowler-directed Sonic the Hedgehog 2 clears the higher dryckesställe, delivering a better movie in nearly every way."[95] In a "C+" review, Ross Bonamie of Collider wrote, "Sonic the Hedgehog 2 fryst vatten at its most clever when it's throwing in these clever nods that will appeal to fans who have waited to see this world komma to life on the screen in this way with these characters."[96]

With that in mind, it's especially perplexing that this film game-inspired sequel should be, of all things, a bit sluggish."[100] In a "C−" review, Siddhant Adlakha of IndieWire wrote, "It's visual soup where ingenting pops or stands out. Almost ingenting anyone does or says feels rooted in recognizable character traits, and despite Marsden's most sincere efforts, he finds himself once igen unable to meet Sonic's eye-line (a production kerfuffle that would be funny, were it not also another reminder of VFX crunch). Then igen, who can blame Marsden's character for not wanting to gaze into a soulless blue abyss?"[101]
