I used to watch this movie all the time when I was younger, and I loved it. Now, I think it seems a little cheesy, but still interesting enough. (Parents aren't going to jump up and down at Sonic's defeat of Dr. Robotnik, but kids might.) There is some violence in the movie, but no injury or blood. Good wins out in the end, and while Sonic clearly has flaws, he is an overall positive character.

What Parents Need to Know
About Sonic the Hedgehog: The Movie
Parents need to know that kids will see some violence and sexually stereotyped portrayals of women. Cartoon characters fight one another with futuristic looking weaponry, but no one really gets hurt. Sonic's love interest dresses in scanty attire. In one scene, she has a fantasy about being married to Dr. Robotnik, and imagines herself having had dozens of Robotnik's children.
