Wreck-It-Ralph

two nights ago I re-watched "Wreck-It-Ralph", and in all honesty I had forgotten what a great movie it is. for those that don't know:

"Wreck-It-Ralph" is a Disney film that was released in 2012.  It follows the lives of Arcade game characters, in particular, Ralph. He's been stuck in a situation for the last 30years as playing the "bad guy" in his arcade game. And he finds himself looking to be the hero for a change. But of course on his quest he finds himself looking for the deeper meanings of life, Causing havoc and basically disrupting the entire arcade's system.

"Wreck-It-Ralph' is one of those rare films that can be watched over and over again and still be as enjoyable as the first time you watched it. The concept is well thought out, the script: well structured and believable, the characters are memorable and the animation differences between the eras of games has just polished it off.

My emotional response to the film was relativly good. i mean, even though the events that occur during this film are totally unrelated to my type of life. i was still drawn in almost immediatly, i was involved in this world that Disney had created. it was thouroughly well done

the Lead character Ralph is a totally relatable character. dealing with insecurites and overall just looking for acceptance for who he is as apposed to what he is (a bad guy with a generous heart). my favourite moment with this character, when we truely see how much he has evolved. Occurs in the climax of the film, when Ralph realises what is important in his life. and on his journey to "make friendships" with the characters of his game he has formed a very real friendship with Venelope. and acts as such. (soory about the brief explanation i did not wish to spoil the film for others)

moments that engagaed me the most generally involved his emerging friendship with a young Candyland girl called Venelope. my Favourite incident has been mentioned above, but another compeling moment  is Ralphs "all is lost" stage in the film. where he has been presented with an aweful challenge but must do a very wrong thing for the right reasons. .. tears were shed.

at no moment of time was i disengaged. i followed the story smoothly from begining to end without interuption of any kind.
