Ralph is a bad guy in Fix-It Felix game. At 30^th anniversary of the game, nobody invites him because everybody hate bad guy. It makes Ralph angry. Then he swears that he can be a good guy by win a medal. He sneaks into Hero’s Duty game and finally wins a medal. However, something happens and flies him to Sugar Rush game. A little racer named Venelope steal Ralph’s medal. She needs the medal to get into the race and become an avatar in the next day. Ralph then decided to help her reach her one and only dream.

Wreck-It Ralph was so amazing. This was not just a funny and entertaining movie. It shows us many old-school games that popular back then. I never play one of them, but I knew them. The movie also made me think how we always put a label to judge people whom I do not really know. Even a bad guy is not completely bad inside. He maybe has a good part inside his heart. But keep careful :)

Favorite scene: Ralph and Venelope create and ‘bake’ their own cart :D

Hotel Transylvania

Genre:

Drama/Comedy

Director:

Genndy Tartakovsky

Cast:

Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Andy Samberg, Selena Gomez, Fran Descher, Jon Lovitz and Molly Shannon

An over-protective Dracula built a hotel to keep his daughter, Mavis and his monster friends safe from humans. At Mavis’ 118^th birthday, Dracula lets her go to a village nearby and prove than humans are dangerous. Later a human named Jonathan comes to the hotel and makes Dracula panic. To avoid chaos, Dracula changes Jonathan’s appearance and makes him like a monster. He says to everybody that John is helping him plan Mavis’ birthday party. Everybody believe it and even like him. Mavis also has special feeling for him.

Although the story line was easy to predict, Hotel Transylvania was good and entertaining enough. I laughed several times but that is it. Nothing more. The songs in the end of the movie are also catchy and good. I guess they cast Selena Gomez especially for that part ;))

Favorite scene: Dracula is afraid of Jonathan’s cell phone and music player. He thinks it was a mind controller hahaha :p
