Whether you relate to Greg or Rowley or any of their classmates including the wise-beyond-her-years Angie (Chloe Moretz), the hygiene-challenged Fregley (Grayson Russell) or the undersized Chirag (Karan Brar), there will likely be some recollections, unpleasant or otherwise, that surface for adult viewers during this all-too-real visit to the classroom. Still, the story offers plenty of laughs with relatively infrequent bouts of potty humor and name-calling. The preteen and his friends are left on their own to deal with some weighty moral dilemmas and tough realities. While he is lucky to have fairly involved parents (Rachael Harris, Steve Zahn), most incidents-including a schoolyard brawl-happen away from any adult presence. But when Rowley breaks his arm in an accident (caused by Greg), it is the injured boy who gets attention from sympathetic female students and is invited to sit at their table in the cafeteria.įaced with peer pressure and bullies, subjected to the embarrassment of gym class and humiliated for being depicted as a loser on the front page of the school paper, Greg faces some difficult but not totally unbelievable situations as his constant clamoring for acclaim continues to flop. Rowley, after all, rides a purple bike to school, wears juvenile t-shirts and still wants to get together after school to play-instead of hang out. At first Greg blames his chubby and childish friend Rowley (Robert Capron) for being his obstacle to instant popularity. Unfortunately his ambitions seem to backfire at every attempt and when he gets noticed it’s for all the wrong things. But Greg has aspirations of being voted one of the Class Favorites in the school yearbook and is determined to make his mark among his classmates. Heading off to Westmore Middle School is rather daunting for Greg who has been repeatedly warned by his browbeating older brother (Devon Bostick) to keep his head down and his mouth shut in order to avoid any unwanted attention. However, it will likely resonate with almost anyone who has endured what might be the worst three years of adolescence. Suitable for most older children, it is told from the perspective of the new-to-middle-school Greg Heffley (Zachary Gordon).
Diary of a wimpy kid movie movie#
This reboot retells the story of the first movie but changes it up enough that fans of that film will enjoy.The Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a funny, family-friendly film based on the popular graphic novels by Jeff Kinney.
As it covers the same book, this film retells a story that has already been made into a film, but with its unique animation style which matches the illustrations in the books, Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2021) can portray certain aspects in a way which the live action films couldn't get away with.
With a runtime of less than an hour, Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2021) is barely a film, however with that short duration it allows this story to flow. The moral of the story seems to be that lying is alright as long as you do it for the right reasons, which is a horrible message to send to children. This movie boils down to Henry being a really bad friend to his bestie, Rowley. Henry's younger brother is supposed to be a cute three-year-old, but cute is not the word I would use for his design. The animation is stylized after the illustrations from the book and this makes for some unique 3D character designs. While released by Disney, the animation in this film was done by Bardel Entertainment and was released on Disney+. An animated film based on the 2007 book by Jeff Kinney, is about a boy named Henry and his difficulties in starting middle school.
