Ralph Breaks the Internet

A Disney sequel worth watching. - 7/10

Finally, a Disney sequel worth watching. 

Ralph and fellow misfit Vanellope are back and risking everything by traveling to the world wide web in search of a replacement part ta save Vanellope's game. In way over their heads, Ralph and Vanellope rely on the citizens of the internet to help navigate their way.

Im absolutely thrilled yet a bit disappointed. Is it wrong of me that i hoped it will be a little bit more enjoyable? Don't get me wrong, Ralph breaks the internet was like the light at the end of a dark tunnel, especially after a series of bad movies but there was something missing.

What i liked most about it is that it's radiating inspiration. Every scene contained a subliminal message either about hope, friendship, insecurities or change and have the power to chase ones dreams. Kids will be absolutely mesmerized by the intensity of such messages (grown-ups as well). This film is so compelling that you won't be able to hide your excitement after watching it.

In addition, the characters are well more presented and detailed (motives, fears, dreams....) and extremely hilarious. I have to say that at first i didn't quite like Vanellope but now she totally stole my heart with her witty humor and childlike innocence (even though she is technically a child). And i think we (human beings) all aspire to have a relationship like the one that joins the two main characters.

Plus, i really liked that it was fast-paced. Everything was turbo charged and surprisingly it worked by making the movie a whole lot more exciting.

Some scenes were absolutely hilarious and extremely creative like the one where Vanellope inserts herself into a room filled with Disney princesses (my favorite). One of the cool things about Ralph breaks the internet is that it brang all of Disney's iconic princesses together onscreen for the first time with thd original actresses voicing them.

Putting aside that this film is a bit predictable, Disney managed to create a sequel that will please both children and enthusiastic parents. 

I absolutely recommend it.

 

P.S : did you guys notice all the Easter eggs that were hidden in plain sight?
