Wreck-It Ralph

Went to watch Wreck-It Ralph yesterday.


Basically, this is a movie similar to Toy Story, but instead of the toy's world, we get to have a look at the arcade games' world. Wreck-It Ralph is one of the arcade games which features Ralph as the villian destroying the building while the hero, Fix-It Felix will fix everything. Tired of being the "bad guy", Ralph leaves his arcade game and try to earn a medal of hero recognition.

With some turn of events, Ralph ends up in Sugar Rush game (a racing game in a sugar world) where he meets Vanellope. She starts of annoying but gradually grows on you into the cute girl with a good story.

Gamers will be delighted to see video game characters being included in the movie even though they play a bit part only. The popular ones include Sonic the Hedgehog, Ryu, Bowser, Pacman and the ghost, Zangief.


Although it might not seem popular, it is one of the best animated movie. There is a short black and white animation played at the beginning of the movie. And if that stood out even though it was colourless and there wasn't any speech, surely Wreck-It Ralph would bring the goods too. It exceeds expectation with many hilarious scenes, good voice acting, lovable characters, solid story, many references (there's even a volcano of diet coke with falling menthos XD) and even a few emotional scenes.

A must watch for video game or arcade fans. Even if you're not, it's still highly recommended if you want a highly enjoyable movie.

8.8/10
