10 Greatest Sci-Fi Movie Villains Of The 2020s (So Far)

10. Dr. Robotnik - Sonic The Hedgehog

2020's Sonic the Hedgehog movie was far from perfect.

It was childish, it was formulaic, and the blue blur flossed way too much for anyone to feel comfortable. However, one good thing that came from the release was Jim Carrey's portrayal of series antagonist Dr. Robotnik.

The long-time baddie of the Sonic franchise made his live-action debut in style. He was hilariously unhinged, devilishly cruel, and had a moustache most people would kill for.

He was cartoony, but that wasn't out of step with the rest of the film. Carrey clearly understood the brief he was given and put his own imitable spin on the character whilst keeping it fairly faithful to the source material.

In the grand scheme of things, he's no Anton Chigurh or Hannibal Lecter, but was he ever going to be? Robotnik is a silly villain in a movie about a talking hedgehog from outer space, and he's the best possible version of that.

Whilst there might be better written or more complex characters on this list, few will remembered as fondly in the future as the Canadian's turn as this mad scientist.
