Diary of a Wimpy Kid

[destresserai]

Kingston was probably less than 20% full.

Really slow and nothing really new just the normal take on starting a new school and trying to fit in or stand out for the right reasons. Very few lol moments and at one stage I did think it would be nice to go off to sleep and I mentally started to make a list of all the others things I could have been doing.

Maybe better suited for a lazy Saturday afternoon when its raining outside and you can't find anything else to watch but to be honest even then I would struggle to stick with it.

4/10 from us I'm afraid

Lol....I soooo had the same feeling, I had so many better things to do then to sit there watching this, maybe because it was just a really early Sunday morning and I had to travel quite far to get to a very empty cinema to watch a very below average film.

Well my first screening, shouldn't complain really but it wasn't the best. Thought Fregley was quite amusing though! We all had a kid like that at school? 3/10 for me. About 50% full in Coventry, one of the smaller screens though.

Was quite average but not absolutely awful. I just felt that nothing much really happened. And that girl that was in Kick Ass didn't really have much of a role. Are they planning a series of these diaries to follow the character as he gets older?? I can then see the potential character development for some of the supporting parts as well as the lead. As part of a series of films then it could make sense, but as a standalone piece, well its all a bit 'meh'. I'm quite indifferent towards it.

These 10.30am Sunday morning starts are a bit trying if you are not in the mood but I managed to get out of the house on time today. A lot of families in the audience - wonder if the kids liked it better. 5/10.

The Odeon in Edinburgh was only about 20% full but perhaps it was because (for once) it was a lovely sunny Sunday morning. Not many kids in the audience. The teenage girls sitting near us thought it funny and it was aimed more at 12 years olds than younger children. Some quite funny moments but wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

Nice to chat to Aylthonian.

5/10

Phew, looks like my instincts were right and I had a lucky escape!

What did you do instead?

I didn't go, sent the 'family'... they said Odeon Holloway was pretty empty and the film wasn't very good.

[Beate]

Had a lie-in.

I didn't think it was that bad, probably just okay

I think the film's going to sink without a trace unfortunately
