Ratchet And Clank is another movie where videogames come to the big screen – the franchise beginning in 2002, but in this case, the characters lend themselves well to a humourous CGI kids movie outing, so most likely it will work. This particular series of games has never been one to grab me, however.
The film tells the story of two unlikely heroes as they struggle to stop a vile alien named Chairman Drek from destroying every planet in the Solana Galaxy. When the two stumble upon a dangerous weapon capable of destroying entire planets, they must join forces with a team of colorful heroes called The Galactic Rangers in order to save the galaxy. Along the way they’ll learn about heroism, friendship, and the importance of discovering one’s own identity.
The trailer features one of those big deep voices you get from time to time, and the cast is comprised of James Arnold Taylor as Ratchet, David Kaye as Clank, plus Jim Ward, Bella Thorne, Sylvester Stallone, Rosario Dawson, John Goodman and Paul Giamatti.
Ratchet And Clank is released in US cinemas on April 29th 2016, but hasn’t yet got a UK date.
