About the movie:
Zachary Gordon is back as Greg Heffley in the second installment of the Wimpy Kid movies. Summer is over and middle school has started again. Greg goes through more of the same hilarious middle school stuff with his friends Rowley and Chirag. In this movie his brother Rodrick plays a bigger part as the boy's parents want them to bond and become good friends. Although the brothers both think their parents are crazy and don't want to hang out, by the end of the movie they end up as friends.
The movie is based on the funny popular kid's book with the same name written by Jeff Kinney.
Review
Although the movie has some funny moments it in no way comes close to the hilarity of the books (which can be very funny). We think the biggest problem with the film is that the main characters just aren't that likeable and there really is no redeeming theme to the story.
