It establishes its own identity, occasionally improving upon its cinematic predecessor enough to make it a worthwhile watch.

In this animated adaptation of the popular book series, imaginative, ambitious, and sometimes self-obsessed sixth grader Greg Heffley enters middle school with his best friend Rowley. The two boys find their friendship tested as they attempt to navigate their challenging new social environment, encountering teenage bullies, competitive cartooning, and disgusting cheese.

What are critics saying?
The A.V. Club by Jesse Hassenger
It seems questionable whether this was really intended as a movie in the first place.
The New York Times by Nicolas Rapold
The movie, directed by Swinton O. Scott III, plays like an extended series pilot, built out of largely interchangeable episodes.
Screen Rant by Sarah Bea Milner
Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a mediocre children's film that — 11 years after the first movie and 14 years after the initial hit book — feels at best derivative, and at worst unnecessary.
