WRECK-IT RALPH
It is probably pretty weird to want to see a movie because of a minor character but when you grew up in the 80's going to the arcade and playing Q*bert, this is a must see movie.
At the risk of sounding really old, young people don't understand the value of arcades, which are hard to find now-a-days. Besides the obvious fun at plugging a game with tokens/quarters, it was a way to hang out with friends and create new ones over similar interests (Q*Bert, Pac-Man, Asteroids, Galaga or Punch Out to name a few).
Wreck-it Ralph takes this experience to a new level by making us wonder what really happens inside the game when the arcade closes and the characters are left to themselves. This story is very entertaining. John C Reilly, Sarah Silverman and Jane Lynch are hilarious in their voice over roles.
I give this two thumbs up for creativity and transporting me back to my teenage years of arcades but mostly for pure unbridled enjoyment.
