Diary of a Wimpy Kid (2010)
This American children's film is an adaptation of a book by the same name the cast includes Hit Girl from Kick-Ass (2010). An 11 year old has problems settling in at his new middle school and making friends.
There are some funny moments in this film but the main problem is that the central character is a dick. Sure the kid may be picked on a bit but really I think it is hard to have any sympathy for him given the way he treats other people as well and that is a major stumbling block for a children's film in my opinion. Ultimately I did not really have much interest in what happened to the main character and the jokes were barely enough to paper over the cracks.
2/5
