As you may already know, Wreck-it Ralph premiered in the United States last Friday, November 2nd 2012 and the reviews are rolling in for this highly anticipated flick set in multiple gaming worlds. Disney Examiner, a fan-run news journal, has posted a spoiler-free review on their website for those debating on whether to see the movie as part of their "Fall Flicks" reviews.

According to the review, Wreck-it Ralph is a definite winner, telling a compelling story "by utilizing the concept of video games" instead of simply relying on only  the game references themselves to carry the film. The movie, in their book, is both lots of fun in terms of comedy but also very emotional and serious at times.

"Disney made us cry. And the DE team that watched it with me consisted of all guys. That says a lot, folks and in this case, it was a good thing."

As for non-video game fans, fear not, for the Disney Examiner team also assures that the film is still enjoyable for those not into gaming.

I saw it and loved it! It totally made me cry as well. I want to see it again so I can stare at all the visuals and see if I can spot more video game references. The short beforehand is super sweet too.

Awesome! I got two free tickets and I can't wait to go. Did you see it in 3D?

And I'm still surprised at how many people say it made them cry. Guess I'd better bring my tissues!

Oh, and welcome to the community. :)

Yay for you! I didn't see it in 3D because I wear glasses and dislike wearing 3D glasses on top of my normal glasses. But I think it would be a lot of fun to see in 3D.

I am an admitted sap, so I cry at a lot of movies, but Ralph's climactic scene really was touching.

Thank you. :) I saw your promo on fandom_on_dw and had to join.
