It's not exactly a brick wall of misery, but it's definitely the point when the game starts to take a nosedive. Immediately after it is Fuga's wild ride and all the other horrors that come after that.

It's not a good platform game, either, though.

Sonic is slow as molasses and feels awful to control until a few seconds after you start moving. It's fucking awful for platforming.

Sonic 1 is pretty shit because of the level design. It starts off great in Green Hill Zone then just goes to shit then picks back up in Starlight Zone. I guess Spring Yard is okay, but yeah overall shit game. They got it perfect with Sonic 2 and everything after that.

Sonic controls like absolute ass when you're going slow. His physics and control roll purely around speed, building and losing speed to get through certain obstacles, ect.

It's why the core elements of Sonic games (ramps, corkscrew loops, shuttle loops, bouncing off enemies) all rely on speed and how fast Sonic is going.

Why do you think there wasn't any shit levels like that in future 2d games?

The games are about trial and error, speed and momentum. Anybody who thought Sonic was about all speed all the time has clearly never played passed Green Hill Zone, or Sonic's 2 and 3 & Knuckles for that matter.

You can attack his limbs, knocking him down. Also, when he throws a fire ball you can dash forward to gain terrain. Jump ins works well also because they allow you to get in whenever he is doing a ground attack.
