Wreck It Ralph Review

Wreck It Ralph Review

Before Ralph’s tale, there is an excellent animated short called “Paperman”.  Truth be told, he is not a Megaman boss, but in fact an office guy that uses paper to get his words across. In fact there is no dialog, but it Is told through a noir (black n’ white) fashion. Where only the music, and sound-fx carry the story along. Its all about a boy who meets a girl, and finds out that maybe she could be someone worth risking it all for.

Seeing more animated shorts like this is a good sign. There are many tales to be told, even without words.

Now to Wreck It Ralph!

Insert Coins =
Many years ago, arcade games were the best place to play an awesome array of games. From platformers: to racers, fighting, and flying simulators. And most at the time cost less than a quarter to play. Times have changed, and interests along with audiences have moved on. As it turns out, it is also his game’s 30th Anniversary! This is the story of Wreck It Ralph, as told by the boss of the game, and how he found out whom he truly was, as a hero.

On the fun side, everything within the gaming happens in real time. So for those of us who ever wondered what happened when the arcades’ closed. Magic happens! Untold tales of adventures behind the scenes that no player is ever meant to know.

Level 1 =
As Ralph finds his way within the gaming world, he is not alone. There are tons of characters living within the same universe, from past to present (including those who have lost a home). *How does that happen you ask? Fair viewer, you will have to see the film to find out. During his journey he gains friends, and allies that no one would ever expect, and finds out even more about the vast gaming world that has yet to be explored.

Level 2 = Bonus Round!
There is an awesome amount of talent behind each character. And including the other familiar faces within the gaming world (tons of easter eggs!)

Final stage =
The best part about this film, is that you don’t have to be a kid to enjoy it. Being a classic gamer myself, I couldn’t enough of every scene or familiar icon just going by the screen. This film is fun, and definitely for everyone. Another plus is to stay for the credits, there are some fun tunes playing during the credits (Wreck it Ralph’s theme song) and (Sugar Rush)  (*and some hidden easter eggs including levels taken from certain games and familiar jingles!)
