Disney’s “Wreck-It Ralph” has already proven to be a financial success in the United States, since it’s premiere this past November. So much so, that the a sequel is already in the talks. But while the US is celebrating the 100th day that the film has been in theaters, some countries are just now getting there taste of the box office success. Just yesterday, the film made its debut in countries such as Norway, Ireland, and most anticipated, The United Kingdom. We have the latest financial success numbers for you for the week!

We are still awaiting the final numbers from our sources for the financial success during the opening days in the newest European countries to start airing the film, so we will more than likely have that data for you on Monday morning when the official numbers come in. However thus far, many reviews in the UK are expressing generally positive feedback about the film. Chris Tookey of The Daily Mail states that Wreck-It Ralph is “Big, Bash and Brilliant”, going on to say that Wreck-It Ralph is “Witty, ingenious and entertaining, a technical and creative breakthrough on a par with Who Framed Roger Rabbit, 25 years ago.” Meanwhile, Alex Zane of The Sun expresses his likes of the film by saying that it is a “hugely enjoyable entry in the Walt Disney Animation Studios catalogue. It sits well alongside the likes of Tangled, balancing both anarchic humour and classic Disney sentimentality very well.”

However, just like all film critics, there are always those that do not agree that a movie is good. On an opposing side, Tim Robey of The Telegraph did not care for the film, calling it “a huge let-down”. On his review, he states that “This script [is] such a let-down. Half the movie is spent inside a cutesy candy-land racing game called Sugar Rush, which is fun and eye-popping for about ten minutes, but the cast and pedantic rules of this confectionery-strewn world will make you crave an escape sooner or later.” There is another editorial that can be found through The Huffington Post, however I’m going to hold off on this one, for I personally have a counter review in that regard planned for later in the week. But to give a small preview, the reviewer, while being excited about the movie, was actually offended by a small segment in the film. (Since both him and I share a personal common bond, but disagree with the “offense”, I will be talking about that in more detail at a later date.)

The latest US numbers are in for Ralph’s 100th day in the theaters. While the movie is currently out of the top 20, it is still going strong, even though it’s currently still playing on a “limited engagement” status, playing on only 660 screens across the country. (Which is an increase of 72 screens from the prior week, showing that the number of theaters showing the film is still bouncing around like a tennis ball.) As of Thursday (before the UK release), the film has made a total of $377,514,812 worldwide, with over $212.5 million of it in pure profit. Of course, we still have to wait for the latest financial numbers to come in from overseas, but we will be sure to let you know the information once we get it.

So are there any more major countries that still have yet to have Ralph grace their silver screens? The answer is yes! There still has not been a release in Japan as of yet, however the motion picture is scheduled to start being offered there on March 23rd of this year. Meaning that AKB48, the Japanese idol group that performed the films ending theme, still has yet to see the film in their native country.

As a reminder of course, the 85th Annual Academy Awards will air on February 24th on ABC, in which of course, “Wreck-It Ralph” has been nominated for Best Animated Picture. For those wanting to take the movie home with them, the film will be made available on HD Digital and HD Digital 3D formats this coming Tuesday. The film will also be made available on various 2D and 3D formats on Blu-ray and DVD on March 5th, the same day that the film will also be made available On Demand via various cable and satellite TV carriers.
