Wreck-It Ralph (2012)

Wreck-It Ralph (2012) — Adventure / Animation / Comedy When video-game villain Ralph tires of being the arcade’s bad guy, he embarks on a reckless quest to prove he can be a hero. Sneaking into other games to win a medal, Ralph accidentally unleashes a dangerous enemy that threatens to wipe out every game in the arcade. Along the way he meets Vanellope von Schweetz, a feisty “glitch” from the candy-racing game Sugar Rush, and Sergeant Calhoun, a no-nonsense soldier from a modern shooter. Ralph and Vanellope form an unlikely friendship as they race to save her world, uncover a conspiracy, and discover what “good” and “hero” really mean. What you’ll experience: bright, imaginative animation packed with fast-paced action, slapstick humor, and clever video-game references that appeal to both kids and grown-up gamers. The film mixes arcade nostalgia and modern game design in colorful set-pieces, delivers laugh-out-loud moments, and lands emotional beats about identity, acceptance, and friendship. It’s playful and heartfelt—big on visual spectacle and warm on character—making it an entertaining, family-friendly ride with surprising depth.
