As I said, the main reason I went so overlong with it was because it got so much praise and I'm clearly an exception. It's just my inclination to balance. If 9 people just say, "I really like it, it's good.", then I think 1 person going into 9 times the amount of detail if they disagree is justified.

I actually got really good vibes at the very beginning of the movie when we first see the Power Strip area. All those different video game icons and that music instantly reminded me of Namco Museum which really turned up my nostalgia.
The feeling... just didn't last.

That movie might be exactly what I'm looking for if my goal is to find movies no one likes, but if we're judging a movie by the standards we can reasonably assume it set out for itself, then it's fair to say whether they did a good or bad job achieving those standards.
You might disagree and say that you're only rating them in terms of your enjoyment, but you also said Wreck-It Ralph had a message and you believe it conveyed that message effectively. That's tantamount to saying it was good in that regard. The opposite is also true. Calling a movie "good" or "bad" generalizes everything that makes that movie, yes, but we can reasonably assume that you're judging it in that way based on your interpretation of it.
Hypothetically, I could say Wreck-It Ralph is a terrible horror movie. Would I be totally wrong?
