I saw Diary of a Wimpy Kid (DOAWK) at a Cineplex large screen (full-price), with 2 grand-daughters, one of whom has read the books (I haven't). I concur with others that the film starts out promising, but tends to bog down in the middle. The main character becomes a little mean-spirited, and the fun begins to fade somewhat. I gather that the books contain a certain cynical tone for the main character, and that the humour plays off that. When you transfer to a screenplay, you have to get the 'voice' right, or else the gags don't work.
I might compare it to describing a Seinfeld plot to a bewildered foreigner: "you see, George takes a disabled parking spot at the mall, causing a girl in a wheelchair to have an accident, so George and Kramer buy her a replacement wheelchair that has defective brakes, and she goes screaming down a hill.." sounds mean, huh? it's not -- it's hilarious WHEN you see it in context. Maybe that's what happens in DOAWK -- incorporating several ideas from the books resulted in some 'losing the context', so to speak.
However, family films are few and far between these days, and this is passable family fun. My advice? if you have a matinée-priced theater, go see it. At full price? stay home and watch your 'Better off Dead' DVD on your big screen TV.

Movie review written by Hector Fernando Andrade JR. II
On Friday March 19, 2010 my mom, my little brother and I went to see the 7:05 P.M movie presentation of Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
I am a fan for the books and I also auditioned for the role of Greg Heffley for Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
At first I was worried about the choices of the cast and the humor Diary of a Wimpy Kid was aiming for but as I was watching Diary of a Wimpy Kid I felt really entertained and I was having a whole new, bright, charming, witty, level of fun.
The story is based on the first book and instantly appealing, good, funny and charming.
The cast is energic and creamy and all the acting from all the actors in Diary of a Wimpy Kid is alive, witty and fantastic.
Thor Freudenthal's direction as the director for Diary of a Wimpy Kid stays true to the books and it is fun.
The animated visuals are cool and great to see come to animated life.
Overall I loved It, my mom, my little brother also loved it. Every fan of the books and even adutioners for the role of Greg Heffley for Diary of a Wimpy Kid is going to love it. I thought Diary of a Wimpy Kid was an A+ excellent, good, memorable, funny and charming movie. I give Diary of a Wimpy Kid two thumbs up and the score of 90 out of 100 and I hope you enjoy Diary of a Wimpy Kid, so enjoy the movie, enjoy Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
