ROLL ’EM
ROLL ’EM! Finding Friends at Super Speed by Hunter Barnard
I saw the new “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie, and I thought he was pretty fast.
Sonic is not a regular hedgehog, and he came from space. He has special rings his mom gave him that let him travel to all sorts of different places.
Sonic used one of those rings to travel to Earth, where he found a small town to live in.
He could not let anyone know he lived there, so he had to spy on people sometimes and gave them funny names since he could not ask their real ones. Sonic likes to run really fast and that is how he spends a lot of his time. Sonic never really relaxes; he just runs a lot.
Eventually, Sonic has to start running from the bad guys but he doesn’t want to use a ring to get away because he wants to stay on Earth.
He decides to get help from a guy he had spied on a lot, Tom Wachowski. They got to do lots of fun stuff together and started running away from the bad guy together.
The bad guy’s name is Dr. Robotnik. He likes to use lasers. Robotnik was really smart with robots and lasers, but not so good at everything else. He was chasing Sonic because he wanted to study him and use his powers to rule the world. Robotnik was kind of funny, though.
Sonic is sad through a lot of the movie because he was not able to have a lot of friends because he was too fast and had to hide a lot. Sonic taught me that it is important to have friends and let them help you, because you can have fun with them, too.
I thought the movie was a really funny and silly one. It was kind of sad, but had a good ending so that was very good. I think people should go see the movie, it was really fun to watch.
