    Advantages Advantages A generally enjoyable family comedy.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages THAT homphobic comment.

    Greg Heffley thinks middle school is the worst idea ever. According to him “You’ve got kids like me that haven’t hit their growth spurt yet thrown in with gorillas who have to shave twice a day.” His horrid elder brother Rodrick tells him he’ll be dead or home-schooled by the end of the year, but his best friend Rowley always looks on the bright side. But as his embarrassment about his friends and family grows and he becomes evermore determined to be popular, middle school becomes all about survival… “Hotel for Dogs” director Thor Freudenthal returns with a bright and breezy family film that ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good acting, story, funny

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Adults may find boring, not laugh out loud

    THE STORY Greg Heffley has just finished middle school and prepares to take on high school with his best friend Rowley. However the transition is not as easy as Greg thinks as he has to deal with new bullies (who make their victims eat off the floor), teachers and girls. Trying to become more popular, he tries out for various clubs and sports but soon realises that none of them are "suited" to him. With his parents despairing and a brother who hates him, Greg and Rowley discover that becoming a teenager is not going to be easy (what with trying not to become infected by The Cheese Touch!) THE ... more

    5 Stars Hilarious Nostalgic Fun For All The Family. 22/05/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Funny, Memorable, Cute and Hilarious, Quotable!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Quite long for a family film.

    Absolutely hilarious. This great film, suitable for all ages, features the hilarious pranks of Greg Heffley, an awkward seventh grader discovering for the first time that in high school, being the most popular kid in school isn't so easy. I usually find that films cast with all children don't feature such great acting, but the young stars in this are just excellent at creating the funniest characters. I was laughing out loud the whole way through. This film is however not only hilarious but touching, nostalgic and really sweet. Audiences young and old can connect and sympathise with Greg and ... more

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Nothing

    This is a great film and a great story to go with it. I bought this film not knowing if it was any good and I really wanted it to be because I loved the book and I have to say I am not at all disappointed at all !!! The story is a little differemt to the books but mostly the same and they added new events and made changes and in my opinion they were well done and added to the enjoyment of the film for me. The actor in the film are brilliant and they really add to the enjoyment and make the story and the plot come alive. In the film Greg has just started middle school and thinks that it is the ... more
