Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

You know diary of a wimpy kid 1 was Bad but since rowley is a likeable character i dont think it is Awful. Diary of a wimpy kid 2 Was okay Diary of a wimpy kid 3 was Also fine. Now this film, This is the Worst movie i ever watched the story is NOTHING is like the book the. animation is terrible. the characters are REPLACED and rowley is not a main character #notmyrowley. Its a nightmare of a movie based of a book. 1/10

After watching this movie. I have to say it was pretty cheesy. Actually it was awful. I rate this 1 out of 10. Watching myself in the mirror was more entertaining than this piece of junk movie. The movie drags on and the humor is lame to say the least. It is a disgrace to Hollywood and movies in general.

How was this film even made? WHY? Where do I even begin? Let's start with the story, or, this film's LACK of a story. It's just random sub plots mixed up together to make the story for a 90 minute film. It makes it CONFUSING, MESSY, and, worst of ALL, BORING.Next up, we have the film's writing, and it's DREADFUL! It's nothing more than pop culture references, and potty humor. LOTS AND LOTS OF POTTY HUMOR. JUST AS MUCH AS ''Norm Of The North'', another abysmal film! And do you know why the writing is so bad? Easy! Jeff Kinney's involvement! This was the first time he wrote for the films, and it really shows how bad it is. Wow.And then there's the acting. Jason Drucker doesn't do a very good job as Greg Heffley. Owen Asztalos as Rowley is no Robert Capron(who did a great job as Rowley). Alicia Silverstone does look like she's having fun in this film, but her performance as Greg's mother leaves a lot to be desired. Chris Coppola does such an over the top job as Mr. Beardo, it makes me feel nauseous. Joshua Hoover does a rather obnoxious job as Mac Digby, but at least it shows he was trying to have fun here. But that's nothing, NOTHING compared to Charlie Wright as Rodrick. Everyone knows about that #notmyrodrick meme that happened all over the internet, right? Well, yeah! He does such an abysmal job here, and no doubt about it he's easily the worst casting choice in the film.The only actor who did an alright job in this film was Tom Everett Scott as Greg's father. Yeah, sure, say all you want, but at least it shows he was trying hard, and put some effort. This makes him the best casting choice in this film as a result. I could say the same for the actor playing Manny as well, but still.Last off, there's the CGI. It looks awful as a whole, but the scene with the seagulls is easily the worst. They look fake and very unappealing, JUST LIKE THE ENTIRE FILM! I can't BELIEVE that Fox actually decided to release this abomination of theaters. And did you know that this film got AWFUL reviews since the TRAILER came out? Fans will hate this film, adults will hate this film, and kids will hate this film. DO NOT SEE THIS FILM. STAY FAR, FAR, FAR away. (This film really deserves a 0/10, but the lowest IMDb can give is a 1/10. So there.)

Now I did knock off one star for the switch up of the actors. But other than that this was a family friendly movie! I seen it and I did laugh at a few scenes. I thought it was pure garbage when I saw the trailer, but it's not. I enjoy the plot, though I'd prefer the book. I mean come on, don't listen to the other reviews! Consider watching it! It's pretty decent!
