Ralph has had enough of being the bad guy and sets out to win a medal in a neighbouring game, Hero's Duty, to prove his bona fides and get acceptance from his fellow game characters. When things don't go to plan he ends up stuck in another game forced to help the delightful Vanellope Von Schweetz (Sarah Silverman) to get his medal back.
This is helped by game characters being able to travel between games via electrical plugs with the power board serving as a central area where they can all mix. The clever use of movie specific characters combined with those from established games such as Street Fighter and Pac-Man builds a versatile world full of colour and fun.
The way the characters interact, develop and grow throughout the movie is a mark of genius and ultimately build a movie that all the family can enjoy.
But don't just take my word for it, let's ask for a professional opinion:
M (5) "I like the funny bit with Vanellope. I don't like the Cybugs. They're not scary, Wreck-It Ralph isn't scary, I just don't like them"
So we all agree! Wreck-It Ralph is a great movie everyone can enjoy.
In a word - Retro-tastic.
