It establishes its own identity, occasionally improving upon its cinematic predecessor enough to make it a worthwhile watch. Read full review

The movie, directed by Swinton O. Scott III, plays like an extended series pilot, built out of largely interchangeable episodes. Read full review

It seems questionable whether this was really intended as a movie in the first place. Read full review

Screen Rant Sarah Bea Milner

Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a mediocre children's film that — 11 years after the first movie and 14 years after the initial hit book — feels at best derivative, and at worst unnecessary. Read full review

The animation is outstanding, but the movie has like, no energy the whole time and I think it's just a ripoff of the original 2010 live-action diary of a wimpy kid film. I just hope the sequel is even better

This movie's character designs are really uncanny and everything else is bland and forgetfull. I don't recommend this movie.

At least the films from the early 2010s were really fun to watch and had a good cast.
