Damn I nearly pissed myself laughing.
Yeah... the sound editing was pretty below par and the script wasn't anything to write home about, but it was cute. That's probably the best way to describe it: cute.
It's a hit-bait of a fan film (which all are) with that last 10% of polish needed to make it really worth sitting through.The cameos were smile inducing but the constant chroma keying and weird casting and poor acting (aside from Robotnik) leave me doubting many will make it through the first 2 minutes of "look, I have a guy who can do basic CG." I realize I sound like a major hater typing this, but all in all I bet there are people who will enjoy this. It's an ok, not solid, effort.
Only some, unfortunately. Occasionally you can tell they took the lazy route on some shots to just get the film online faster, which is a shame.

Really enjoyed it.
I used to think the Ghostbuster fandom was tolerable for a good two years until I realized how incestually insane the entirety of it was becoming. People dropping 10-$20,000 on Ecto-cars instead of moving out of their parents' houses... yeesh.

Something tells me that Robotnik gif is going to be used in topics about hot women. Perhaps the Jack Nicholson gif has competition!

Haha, at the start of this shot I was like wtf is wrong with his eye? His pupil was so far left in his eyeball it just looked like a white blob.

The combination of inadequate character animations and the fur on the character model itself makes for a rather poor model.
For the record, I didn't like this thing at all.

It was surprisingly good until sonic appeared. The model and animation of sonic is horrible, too bad, because jaleel white's voice makes him more endearing than the modern videogame one.
Robotnik was awesome though.
Also meh at moebius not having loopings and strange nature, nothing that good cgi modellers couldnt make right and natural.
EDIT: Well at the end there where some loopings and sonic vegetation lol
A cool cartoon movie that wouldnt try to be serious would have been better.

You would be drunk 2 minutes in if only for the cameos alone.
Heh, for a fan made video, it wasn't bad. Of course a higher budget and better actors would make it better, but I doubt very seriously these guys are going after awards. Still, I was expecting total crap, but it was watchable and the nods to Sonic canon were funny. Not something people are supposed to take seriously. Music is cool, too.
There's at least four. Brentalfloss in the crowd, James Rolfe on the TV, Doug Walker as that soldier Sonic saves, and Stuttering Craig around 7:07 in.
And that's not counting Egoraptor and Kirbopher doing the voices of a couple robots.

The special effects were pretty good for a fan film. The red robots in the forest, more specifically. Cameos were neat. Otherwise I've already forgotten it.

I guess they tried to make him more hedgehog-ish with the hair. Didn't work.

I wish Sega had enough money to make their own shorts.
The CG studio they use makes some pretty charming stuff, that Night of the Werehog short was great.

We need more stuff like Night of the Werehog because it was actually well produced and good. It's too bad, really. :/

The worst part for me was how Sonic moved. It was janky, unnatural and physics didn't apply to fall speeds, bouncing off stuff, etc. Plus at the end he was going through that zone very slowly, especially around that loop in first person.
Plus his mouth, why don't animators work on that more?

Ooooh, now I get why Sonic's lips barely synced up. It wasn't due to incompetence, it was a tribute to this game and how the lip sync was really bad there too.
Pfffffffffft hahaahahahaha
