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!
