A Disney animation where when the kids backs are turned, characters interact in their own secret society. It all sounds very Toy Story and with John Lasseter taking an executive producer role, it’s unsurprising. Though the initial concept is arguably borrowed from a past success, Wreck-It Ralph has originality, it’s cleverly written and a lot of fun. The titular Ralph, a bad guy gone good, played by John C Reilly is villain of arcade game Wreck-It Ralph where his sole responsibility is to leave a path of carnage wherever he lays his big clumsy fists, for hero ‘Fix-It Felix Jr’ to clean up his mess and be adored. Ralph is tired and lonely in his job, yearning to be a hero, to be part of something and goes on a mission to win a medal to prove he can do good and be welcomed into a penthouse suite in ‘Niceland’ with all the other good guys.
