The film offers a charming window into childhood, with its unique set of rules and perspectives. For adults, it’s both nostalgic and refreshing. Chloe Grace Moretz's closing line resonates deeply: life goes on, and what feels monumental now will likely fade into insignificance—but that’s the beauty of youth, fighting passionately for the seemingly trivial.

Any child neglected at home would naturally seek attention elsewhere, and this film captures that desire perfectly. While Greg might seem silly, he’s a relatable reflection of our younger selves.

I’m surprised by the low ratings; I actually enjoyed it. Maybe it's because I have a soft spot for stories about kids, and the wimpy kid in the film provided plenty of laughs. Plus, sometimes I enjoy these light, mindless American teen movies.

The film has little substance. The cartoon segments are cute enough, but the movie as a whole just depicts the aimlessness of middle school life. The transitions between scenes feel clunky, and the young actor who starts out charming quickly becomes overly contrived.

Yes, i liked the movie, and also the books, but the only thing i didn't like was greg's personality in front of rowly, since he behaved like an idiot.

Funny

This is a great adaptation. I like the choices they made for the cast and scenery; it was like watching the pictures in the book coming to life.

O filme oferece uma encantadora janela para a infância, com seu conjunto único de regras e perspectivas. Para os adultos, é nostálgico e refrescante. A frase final de Chloe Grace Moretz ressoa profundamente: a vida continua, e o que parece monumental agora provavelmente se tornará insignificante – mas essa é a beleza da juventude, lutar apaixonadamente pelo aparentemente trivial.

Cualquier niño descuidado en casa buscaría naturalmente atención en otro lado, y esta película captura ese deseo a la perfección. Aunque Greg pueda parecer tonto, es un reflejo identificable de nuestras infancias.

Qualquer criança negligenciada em casa naturalmente procuraria atenção em outro lugar, e este filme capta esse desejo perfeitamente. Embora Greg possa parecer bobo, ele é um reflexo compreensível de nossas versões mais jovens.

Me sorprenden las bajas calificaciones; de hecho me gustó mucho. Tal vez sea porque tengo debilidad por las historias sobre niños, y el muchachito de la película me provocó muchas risas. Además, a veces disfruto de estas películas estadounidenses ligeras y sin sentido, hechas para adolescentes.

La película tiene poca sustancia. Los segmentos con dibujos animados son bastante lindos, pero la película en su conjunto solamente se encarga de describir la falta de objetivos en la escuela secundaria. Las transiciones entre escenas parecen torpes y el joven actor que comienza siendo encantador rápidamente se vuelve demasiado artificial.
