As I read the news about a Wreck-it Ralph sequel I am reminded about what I did and didn't enjoy about the film. It's been almost a month since I've seen the film and all I vividly recall that it didn't meet my high expectations. When I left the theatre I almost felt like it should have been called "Sugar Rush". Now, that's not to say I didn't enjoy the film, there's so many reasons why everyone should watch it. I think I set my expectations based on the trailers leading up to the release in theatres, it just painted a different story, one that wasn't about a strawberry shortcake inspired setting.

To paint you a picture of a weight scale around the zones, this is how I saw it.

70% candy zone (Sugar Rush)
10% shooter zone (Hero's Duty)
10% neutral game zone (Game Central Station)
10% arcade (Fix-It Felix)

Overall I would give the film a 9.5 but I kind of wished most of the film wasn't in a candy setting. I was reminded of my childhood days when I enjoyed Strawberry Shortcake and gang, which isn't a bad thing if they labeled it that way. With how many games I enjoyed growing up, I guess a balance here would have looked like this.

30% candy zone
30% shooter zone
10% neutral game zone
30% arcade

Have you watched the film and if so would you give it a 10?
