Review For Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days |
Though often self-centered and conniving, Greg remains a likable kid, and the movie entertains by pulling off over-the-top scenarios that set up digestible life lessons for youngsters. Abby West-Entertainment Weekly
Released right when summer starts to drag, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days at least doesn't add to the exhaustion. Nick Pinkerton-Village Voice
Old-fashioned and small in scale, the movies sometimes feel like after-school specials from a bygone era, which is part of what makes them so endearing. Rafer Guzman-Newsday
I'd call "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days" harmless if it weren't for some totally unnecessary gay-panic jokes that could actually encourage bullying. Lou Lumenick-New York Post
Spending time with Kinney's characters has become an annual treat. Sean O'Connell-Washington Post
Real emotions get expressed. Real family harmony emerges. Amy Biancolli-San Francisco Chronicle
With "Dog Days" and its been-there, done-that screenplay, the franchise takes a step backward. James Plath-Movie Metropolis
With their recurring characters and suburban Anytown USA setting, these films represent a throwback to the assembly-line days of 'Andy Hardy' and 'Blondie' movies: They lack surprise but not laughs. John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
More efforts not to be wimpy. Cynthia Fuchs-Time to Play Magazine
Dog Days doesn't have the emotional pull of the last installment in the franchise, but it's still a vast improvement over the irritating series opener. Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide
This third adventure holds up nicely with its breezy comic energy and kid-friendly messages about respecting people you allegedly care about. Jim Schembri-3AW
Learn from your mistakes is the theme of this endearing third film in the franchise in which the awkward, tumultuous highs and lows of pubescence continue Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
Greg isn't just wimpy, but manipulative and selfish, and no amount of after-school-special lessons and father-son bonding in the final 10 minutes is enough to overcome that. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune
Sure, your kids will think it's funny. But if they've seen many movies, they're going to know they're looking at lowbrow jokes that are cheap and easily written - the kind of stuff kids tell each other in the halls at school. Linda Cook-Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)
With a further 3 novels yet to receive cinematic treatment, let's hope the youngsters can keep puberty at bay as judging by the quality on offer here, there's potential for many more enjoyable entries in the diary yet. Adam Lowes-HeyUGuys
The acting may be cartoony and the action sketchy, but the film's breezy good-humour - personified by Robert Capron's kindly, loyal Rowley - makes it easy to like. Jason Best-Movie Talk
Mums and dads will know how Zahn feels when he threatens to rip all of the leads out of the back of the TV set. Graham Young-Birmingham Post
A fairly entertaining movie for the younger kids but for all else not so funny. Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com
An obvious improvement over 2010's subpar Diary of a Wimpy Kid... David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews
Wimpy Kid doesn't need to use seizure-inducing, bright, shiny tricks to distract you from the thin plot, like disco dance floors and rats being hurled off of cruise ships in 3D. Grae Drake-Movies.com
It's Tom Sawyer for the age of video games, a scrappy, anecdotal affair... Philip French-Observer [UK]
A comfy, feelgood comedy that's fun for the whole family! Kam Williams-AALBC.com
Though this one is better than the first two, this is now my least favorite trilogy. Jeff Bayer-The Scorecard Review
Formulaic, family-friendy sequel, as Greg's angst takes a more adolescent turn. Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate
If you're over the age of 12, chances are you're already too old for these movies. Daniel M. Kimmel-New England Movies Weekly
If you're a ten-year-old boy (or have a ten-year-old boy's sense of humor), you should like this. And I'm nothing if not a big, fat, hairy ten-year-old boy. Kevin Carr-7M Pictures
