Kissing Couple Movie Review: Wreck-It Ralph

As promised, Amanda and I went to see Wreck-It Ralph tonight.  We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, and it'll be an instant buy for me when it hits blu-ray and DVD sometime next year.

The Good:

• Overall story was fun
• Video game cameos were awesome
• The Konami Code
• Plot points that were reminiscent of Reboot and .Hack
• Good animation
• Paperman (the short shown before Wreck-It Ralph) was incredible
• Jane Lynch voicing the female space marine

The Bad:

• Bowser didn't have enough screen time
• Amanda wants to play Sugar Rush, and I'm not sure any video game adaptation of it will match up to the movie

Best Moments:

• The explanation of "Going Turbo"
• The method of escape from the quicksand

It felt like a crazy mix of a Pixar movie with .Hack, Reboot, Speed Racer, the podrace from Star Wars Episode I (for a few short minutes) and a ton of video game references thrown in.

*Highly* recommended!
