Six years after the first movie, the sequel of Wreck-It-Ralph is breaking in. Is it coindence that Disney released this movie the same year as Sony's Hotel Transylvania franchise? Guess not. I see what you did there, Disney. This sequel takes place six yeas after the first movie. It is the same amount of time that's passed in real time life. We can see that from the sign outside the arcade.
Assumed by the trailer back then, this movie seems like a cooler version of Emoji Movie which was failed badly in rating and revenue. The fact is, Wreck-It-Ralph 2 is suprisingly better than the Emoji Movie. Either from its plot or easter eggs. We will see about the revenue later. But, considering it is a Disney movie, well you guess it.
Before talking about the plot, let's check the newcomer casts. Gal Gadot is perfect as Shank. The character is based on her character in Fast Furious franchise, after all. They said that the movie is Gal Gadot's first animated film. And one thing I didn't expected that SHE CAN SING. Next, Taraji as Yesss also great. The character resembes her much. And Alfred Monila as Double Dan. You recognized him as Doc Ock in the original Spiderman. Moreover, there's also Vin Diesel and the original VA of Disney princesses, except for Aurora. Nostalgia at its best!
The movie has a complete plot structure. Six stages with five turning points. In general term, its plot is easy to understand. Duh, it is a PG-13 movie. The climax is executed beautifully yet predicted. No wonder if there's someone out there would choose Vanellope as their favorite Disney princesses after this movie.
As expected, the movie is full of pop culture stuffs. You can measure your pop culture knowledge by searching the easter eggs. A113, princesses' casual clothes, Zootopia, Twisted Metal, and so many to mention. There are two EGs that become my favorite. The imperial march song and the usage of Internet/Wifi word. Even they said that this movie is the first movie that uses 'Internet' in its title, it still can't use 'Internet' and 'Wifi' word inside the movie. Maybe because of intellectual property thing. Instead, they changed those words into Interneat and W1F1.
In a whole, Wreck-It-Ralph 2 is a movie that challenge "problematic" Disney princess stereotypes. Even the movie looks like an advert for Disney's brands like Ohmydisney and others, Ralph 2 is changing our perception about Disney princesses. Also, congratulations for Vanellope von Schweetz become the first Jewish Disney princess.
Ciao.
