"Outsized Cartooning"

Apparently Sonic the Hedgehog has (apparently) a character funnier than the title performer:

... Carrey out-cartoons the cartoons. Watching Carrey in a mainstream kiddie comedy again feels a little like comparing the mostly hand-drawn animation of The Lion King to the soulless photorealism of its recent remake: It’s less technologically advanced, yet more impressive. ...

Carrey once had the broad appeal of a Warner Bros. cartoon character in his early pictures, then somewhere he wandered off into the tall weeds and disappeared from view.

Nice to see Jim Carrey is back, older but (happily) no wiser ... or more toned down.
