An incredible Journey, Filled With Joyful Nostalgia!

Rating: 7/10 (17 July 2013)

An incredible journey! The movie has a unique and innovative concept, the characters are interesting and relateable, and the story has a lot of heart. People who grew up playing these particular games (arcade and video games alike) will enjoy the references with joyful nostalgia.
It could have spent lesser time in Sugar Rush land; a bit too candy for my taste. Otherwise, the movie is entertaining from beginning to end. The spectacular animation and graphics breathe life into these game characters. And the sound effects and score are quite exuberant too.
The movie has a good blend of laughs and heartwarming moments. The twists are maintained well to keep the story intriguing.
The voice artists have done a commendable job. John C. Reilly is fascinating as the bored and irritated "Bad Guy", Wreck-It Ralph. Jane Lynch is hilariously brilliant as Sergeant Calhoun, and Jack McBrayer is charming and funny as Mr. Fix-It.
