The first volume in Jeff Kinney's wildly popular Web and book series hits the screen in this live-action adaptation. The impish Zachary Gordon, who recalls Wonder Years -era Fred Savage, plays Greg Heffley, who enters middle school determined to become class favorite. It won't be easy. His best friend, Rowley (the sweetly funny Robert Capron), is a big, redheaded lug who embarrasses him at every turn. Greg's obnoxious teenage brother, Rodrick (Devon Bostick), advises him to keep his head down, but Greg believes he needs to excel at something to achieve his goal. Smart, but small for his age, he tries wrestling and safety patrolling, but nothing seems to fit. During gym class, he and Rowley meet wise-beyond-her-years newspaper reporter Angie (Chloë Moretz, (500) Days of Summer ), who finds popularity overrated. Greg isn't convinced, but the harder he tries, the more boorish he becomes, until even Rowley abandons him. After a humiliating encounter with some high school bullies, though, Greg learns what really matters: self-respect (he also discovers that the dreaded "cheese touch" is just a myth). Berlin-born director Thor Freudenthal ( Hotel for Dogs ) avoids any dull or sentimental patches, which should please kids and adults alike (an upbeat modern-rock soundtrack doesn't hurt). Rachael Harris and Steve Zahn could use more face time as the terminally un-cool Heffley parents, but Harris's rhythm-impaired moves at the mother-son dance provide one of the best laughs. Kinney fans will also appreciate the way Freudenthal weaves stick-figure drawings from Greg's journal throughout this zippy entertainment. --Kathleen C. Fennessy The hysterically funny, best-selling book comes to life in this smash-hit family comedy! Greg Heffley is headed for big things, but first he has to survive the scariest, most humiliating experience of any kid’s life – middle school! That won’t be easy, considering he’s surrounded by hairy-freckled morons, wedgie-loving bullies and a moldy slice of cheese with nuclear cooties! Review: Great story for kids with realistic persons and situations. - Bought this for my seven-year-old grandson recently. He had heard other kids at school talking about "Diary of a Wimpy Kid". I wanted to encourage him to have his Mom read the book aloud to him as well as viewing the DVD. He absolutely loves this series. It helps him to understand the common experiences he has at school and play with other kids like Wimpy". We discuss the situations later and gain insight into why certain behaviors work or don't work and about the qualities of having a good friendship and relationship with siblings and parents. The author is so insightful in how he decides on a story line and develops the characters. I purchased the next book and DVD as well called "Rodrick Rules", as Rodrick is the older brother who gives his younger brother a hard time. Again, this story was a huge hit with my grandson and he loves to view it over and over. It creates a great deal of laughter and is a terrific video for the entire family to watch. So glad to have discovered this series! Purchased online from desertcart. Always a rapid response/delivery time. Product arrives in perfect condition. I trust desertcart. Review: Hilarious, Fun Family Movie - I saw this movie when it came out in the movies with my 2 girls, at the time age 8 and 10, along with their 2 friends and my friend. As an adults and childs point of view, the movie was really funny and entertaining. We thought it was awesome and a must have for our video collection. My nephews who are 5 and 8 just saw it for the first time and watched it over and over again 3 days straight, they thought it was hilarious. It's a great family movie and the new Diary of a Wimpy Kid "Roderick Rules" that is out in theaters is another one will be purchasing as soon as it is available. It is an awesome sequel, we were cracking up the whole time. My kids have also been enjoying the Diary of a Wimpy Kid chapter books for years now. If your child is into reading or even not, maybe it will get them interested. My one daughter who is not that into reading loves these books, because of the comic strips throughout, she has even started making her own comics. I have only good things to say about this movie, and anything pertaining to it.

Great Read - Perfect Story Line
This book kept my child's attention from start to finish. It's filled with lessons to learn from and is very funny. Great storyline as well.

A Pleasant Surprise
This was a very pleasant surprise -- a very well done PG film. This is a good example of how films are supposed to be done. I am far older than the intended audience, yet even I found it entertaining. In a PG way, of course. People in the target audience should (unless they are being too "grown-up" on principle) find it quite entertaining. I found the protagonist a bit of a pill, and I certainly would not want to have him as a friend. Or, in kindergarten, anywhere in my vicinity. And how many films have a Slice of Cheese as an important supporting character?

One of my 7 year old's favorites!
My son is 7 and heard about this movie from school. I was a bit hesitant to let him watch it since it is about kids in middle school and has some middle school aged appropriate content but I watched it with him and found it to be age appropriate for him. He absolutely loves his movie and has watched it numerous times and has even started reading the book because of it. It's a cute movie about underdog kids comin out on top, the troubles of middle school and friendship. It does have some crude humor, the type that middle school boys (and my 7 year old boy) find hilarious but other than that it is pretty harmless. I needed up buying this after renting it because my son liked it so much.

"It's not a diary it's a movie"
I actually saw this series in a book store quite a while before the films came about. I remember reading the part in the book where Greg is in swimming but is embarrassed about his bathing suit and then him describing the people in his school as being so out there. The way the author illustrated this in his books felt so absolutely genuine that it brought me back to my childhood and what i thought as a kid to loath certain aspects of life at that age and how we come up with solutions that just end up making situations worse or at least memorably wrong at times. Good times or bad, IT WAS GREAT. The movie version absolutely lives up to the book.. Hats off to Zachary Gordon who's narrative voice over observations and acting are so spot on that they give credit to the wonderful world Jeff Kinney has created. Steve Zahn would have never been the dad I envisioned, but he is great and gives a whole new light on the character. Do yourself a favor and watch this movie if you love good wholesome fun from time to time and then watch the sequels because they are great too.
