Some Earky Reactions
''"With a mix of retro eye-candy for grown-ups and a thrilling, approachable storyline for the tykes, the film casts a wide and beguiling net." -Justin Lowe (Hollywood Reporter) ''

" A cleverly conceived, coin operated machine." -Mark Sells (The Reel Deal)

" There are a staggering number of rules governing the gameplay in Wreck-It Ralph, and one of the toon's greatest pleasures comes in how intuitively audiences discover those parameters as the story unfolds; With plenty to appeal to boys and girls, old and young, Walt Disney Animation Studios has a high-scoring hit on its hands in this brilliantly conceived, gorgeously executed toon, earning bonus points for backing nostalgia with genuine emotion. ." -Peter Debruge (Variety)

" Nothing but broad, pandering indexes tailored to appeal to the arcade wistfulness it never even bothers to convincingly evoke." John Semley (Slant Magazine;Yes this is the onky bad review on both Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic;fak u john)
