Wreck-It Ralph Storyline

The clumsy Wreck-It Ralph has been the villain of his video-game for thirty years, destroying a residential building while Fix-It Felix uses his powerful hammer to rebuild what Ralph has destroyed. During the celebration of the thirtieth anniversary of the game, Ralph is not invited to the party since nobody loves him. Ralph decides to win a medal to become a hero and he goes to the game Hero’s Duty, commanded by the tough Sergeant Calhoun, where he sees the chance of winning the medal. Ralph collects the aimed medal, but when he is returning to his game, he brings accidentally one enemy Cy-Bug with him. Ralph accidentally crashes his plane in the kart-racing game Sugar Rush and loses his medal. When he is ready to retrieve it, the annoying glitch Vanellope von Schweetz takes the medal and uses it to dispute a kart racing in her game. Meanwhile Felix is seeking out Ralph to tell him that their game will be shut down since he is missing. Felix meets Sergeant Calhoun that tells him that the Cy-Bug would destroy any game and he immediately falls in love with her. Ralph helps Vanellope to build her own racing car and becomes her hero; but soon he is convinced by King Candy that Vanellope is just a glitch and she may destroy Sugar Rush. Ralph destroys her car and her dreams expecting to protect Vanellope. But when he sees her picture on the cabinet of Sugar Rush, he learns that something is wrong in the explanation of King Candy.

Wreck-It Ralph Movie Reviews

Virtual Joys

Wreck-It Ralph imagines a world where arcade game characters have their own lives. It’s like a video game version of Toy Story and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but this one is much more appealing to the viewers. As expected, it has an endless amount of enjoyment, a big scale of adventure, and really fun characters. The filmmakers poured their love of these games to the film thus made this a wonderful nostalgic delight.

The story doesn’t sound quite fresh at some point, especially for an animated film, but the main attraction here is the theme. It sets in a magnificent arcade world. It’s fun when it captures the prominent video game mannerism like the freezy movements in retro games, an out of control game character walking against the wall in 3D games, and the glitching. It’s easy to know what the central games are inspired from. Many would root for the cameos of iconic game characters and each of their appearance are splendid. The movie is filled with action set pieces that are undeniably exciting. By its grand scale and references, the experience is gloriously extraordinary.

Another charms of the film is the characters. We don’t usually see films with well developed characters in blockbusters these days but this one has plenty of it. They all have their own pathos, but in a comical way. And the voice performances were great. John C. Reily gives Ralph an acceptably nice personality. Sarah Silverman makes Vanellope adorable enough. Jack McBrayer is quite charming as the always positive Fix-It Felix Jr. and Alan Tudyk is delightful as the goofy King Candy.

The animation is wonderful. Like what I said, they really capture the elements of every video game. The game “Sugar Rush” has the most colorful(and product placed) visuals of the film. The rest is thoroughly inspired. 3D is usually unnecessary but here is just fine. It’s kind of worth it by its large adventures. There is no scene after the credits but it’s better to stay during it to listen to the theme songs of “Sugar Rush” and “Fix-It Felix Jr.”.

There isn’t much groundbreaking about Wreck-It Ralph but what makes this special is its tribute to the classic video games. It also serves an over the top fun and sweetness(no Sugar Rush pun intended). It’s so fun, it’s easy to ignore its little flaws. There are some things that could have been better, but the film is already good enough. To those who love playing video-games will enjoy this a lot more. It’s just full of life and nostalgia. Wreck-It Ralph is a great virtual ride!

A lot to like–a lot to annoy—it’s a real mixed bag here.

“Wreck-It Ralph” is incredibly inventive and enjoyable–or at least MOST of the film. Up until the movie neared the end, I would have scored this one an 8–it was that good. But, the ending managed to annoy me and create a lot of ill-will in me.

The film worked very, very well in several ways. Seeing the arcade characters on their ‘time off from work’ at the end of the day was GREAT. In fact, I wish I’d seen more of this–especially the homages to classic arcade games like Sonic and Q-Bert. It also had amazing graphics. But, it also seemed to have too much story–way too much story. And, at the end, just about every cliché known to Disney (even including the Disney Princess notion!) was tossed in–and destroying much of the momentum in the movie. Then, all the inventiveness was gone–and it a by-the-numbers film that just stopped being fun when the whole race plot began. Overall, a very mixed bag. I loved most of it but cannot heartily recommend it. My advice? See it once. Or, if you are a little kid and can watch formulaic Disney fare again and again, then by all means watch it until your brain drips out your ears. This should have been a lot better–it’s as if Disney was more concerned about marketing than providing a top-notch film.

Best animated film of 2012? Absolutely!

I think 2012 has been a very good, even great, year for animation in that I don’t think I have seen an animated film I’ve disliked. Wreck It Ralph for me was the best animated film from 2012(although it only came out yesterday in the UK I still class it as a 2012 film), tying with Tangled as the best Disney has done since The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It has something for children and adults alike, and I don’t think you have to be a video game fan to like it(I’m not exactly, more of Disney myself, but am very familiar with them through my brother). The animation is wonderful, the characters move with no problem at all, the colours look gorgeous and the backgrounds are detailed, very like the very best of Pixar actually. The music, right from the tempos, rhythms, melodies, chord progressions and instrumentation, is full of energy and the songs are incredibly catchy. The writing is a perfect blend of humour and heart, the film is often hilarious and witty as well as heartfelt and touching in equal measures and the story is fast-paced and much more original than you’d think complete with energetic-but not too frantic- action. I like the Be Youself message, it is an important one and I personally didn’t think it was heavy-handed. And of course any video game fan will love spotting the video game characters and references, there’s plenty of them and all are colourfully evoked. I found it very easy to relate to Ralph, Fix-it Felix Jr is an amusing character and Vanellope is cute without being annoying or mawkish. The voice work is terrific, with the standout being the gruff vulnerability that John C Reilly brings to Ralph. In conclusion, a wonderful film and the best animated film of the year. 10/10 Bethany Cox
