FamilyComedy

Wimpy Greg Heffley, now in seventh grade, thinks he has it all together. He has mastered middle school and gotten rid of the Cheese Touch. However, Greg's older brother, Rodrick, is itching to cut him down to size. He gets the perfect opportunity when their mother tries to force the boys to bond. Rodrick may be Greg's chief tormentor, but he feels his constant pranks are just what his little brother needs to prepare him for life's hard knocks.

VIBE

This film feels like a boisterous, often cringeworthy, yet ultimately warm-hearted dive into the chaotic world of middle school and sibling antics. It's a whirlwind of relatable awkwardness and slapstick humor, capturing the exasperating charm of family life with a propulsive, energetic pace. Expect a lot of laughs and a touch of nostalgic discomfort.
