Maybe Greg was better off in military school than to be in another movie. Go to Full Review

3/5
This series' winning combo of couching positive lessons, sweet family dynamics, and cheeky humor into one fun package continues in this latest adaptation. Go to Full Review
John Serba Decider Dec 8
Although the movie trafficks in the usual funny-for-kids-only wacky lowbrow slapstick spattered with flecks of crude rudeness, its thankfully non-preachy moralizing marks an improvement for these Wimpy Kid movies. Go to Full Review

B-
"The Last Straw" feels overstuffed, hurting the viewing experience, but the endeavor is mostly engaging and maintains the screen appeal of the animated "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" series. Go to Full Review

Nathan J. @TribianiRamoray 4d Rating: 5.6/10 A disjointed entry in the series with recycled gags and awkward family dynamics, but with some decent moments about father-son relationships. Highlights - Relatable Struggle: Frank Heffley's efforts to connect with Greg are relatable. - Faithful Animation: Style remains true to Jeff Kinney's iconic drawings. - Sweet Resolution: Ending reinforces family loyalty over public image. Criticisms - Messy Plot: Recycles plot points from previous movies. - Unlikable Greg: Greg's selfishness and treatment of Rowley are grating. - Disjointed Pacing: Jumps between scenes without much flow. Verdict A mediocre addition to the franchise with some heartwarming moments, but feels like filler content with recycled jokes and awkward scenes. See more Londyn L @Freddy-fazbear Dec 28 It was just another bucket of slop, same as the other animated ones. See more I am L Dec 26 Me: Well. I wouldn't call it terrible. And it's still better then the first movie. Though Diary Of A Wimpy Kid The Last Straw is definitely a downgrade from Cabin Fever & Rodrick Rules due its low quality animation, Choppy Voice Acting as well its Really Generic & A Cast of really unlikable characters with the only good ones being Susan Heffley for obvious reasons & Patty Ferrel who I found really relatable ( unlike in the original films that is ) My Ribombee ( Tinkerbell. Jr ): But it was a rather unpleasant experience My New Nicket Niki: Yah :( . And I mean come on Mr. Heffley, Military school?!😾 My Rioul ( Taichi ): Well at least he didn't actually go for it and canceled those plans for him in the end because if he did then It would definitely will not end well Story: 4/10 Animation: 5/10 Characters: 2/10 Overall: 39/100 See more Don't a Dec 19 Animation, amazing, story, engaging, and it's a great combination of last straw and old school See more Ilyas Z @Zellai Dec 11 It's Longer Than The Other Movies. And Has Better Animation. But Is Not As Good As Cabin Fever. See more Speakerman G Dec 11 Absolute cinema mas feito para streaming, este filme do Diário de um banana surpreende com mensagem madura, personagens antigos reaproveitados, referências incríveis dos livros e a exploração da paternidade e amor entre Frank Heffley e Greg Heffley. Um dos melhores filmes do ano, com roteiro maravilhoso e animação decente para um original de streaming. See more Read all reviews
