The film released on August 3, 2012 combining The Last Straw and Dog Days.Though this will be the third installment to the film series, its title is taken from the fourth book of the book series as it will be based on both the third and fourth books, The Last Straw and Dog Days.
LOS ANGELES — Maybe it has to do with the lowered expectations surrounding something with "Dog Days" in its title being released during a traditionally less stellar time in the movie-going season, but the third installment in the "Wimpy Kid" franchise turns out to be not so wimpy after all. Although it paints everything with the same broad sitcom strokes as its predecessor, "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days," culled from the third and fourth books in Jeff Kinney's wildly successful "novel in cartoons" series, proves nimbler and truer to its origins than last year's "Rodrick Rules." Despite the fact that this "school's out" edition is hitting theatres at a time when many kids in the country are getting ready to go back, the modestly budgeted Fox 2000 presentation should still come within spitball distance of the $53 million taken domestically by No. 2. It's summer break in the Heffley household, and while the teenaged Greg (Zachary Gordon) is content to while away the sunny hours inside playing video games, his hapless dad, Frank (Steve Zahn) has other, father-son bonding ideas. He's initially able to dodge working as an intern at Frank's office by pretending he already landed a job at the ritzy country club where his buddy Rowley belongs – and where his crush Holly Hills (Peyton List) hangs out – but when his dad catches on to the ruse, Greg gets dragged off on an ill-fated camping trip. David Bowers, who also helmed "Rodrick Rules" and incoming screenwriters Maya Forbes ("The Larry Sanders Show") and Wallace Wolodarsky ("Monsters vs. Aliens") have brought the title character closer to those wimpier roots after Greg came across as a little too mean-spirited the last time out. As again portrayed by Gordon, this time around there's more vulnerability to temper that smart-ass streak, while the story as a whole feels less episodic.
Storyline:
School is out and Greg is ready for the days of summer, when all his plans go wrong. What on earth is he going to do all summer?
Movie Review:
This film is the third film in this popular series and is based on the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, which are written by Jeff Kinney. These books are about the ups and downs of growing up and trying to deal with school, family and relationships. The stories are so well written and relatable, that you can't help but love the books and the movies. This film stars Zachary Gordon, who does a great job once again as the main character Greg Heffley, and Robert Capron, as his lovable friend Rowley Jefferson. This films starts out with Greg and Rowley finishing the school year and planning out their summer vacation. There's only one problem, as usual for Greg, nothing goes as planned. Follow along as Greg and Rowley try to make it through the dog days of summer.My favorite character is Greg because he is funny and means well even when he makes mistakes and deep down, he just wants everyone to like him. It is hard choosing one scene as my favorite, because most of the scenes at the country club are absolutely hysterical, but I was able to choose one. That's when Greg's older brother Roderick, played brilliantly by Devon Bostick, tries to fake drowning to the pretty life guard will save him. The problem is, she doesn't even notice him, so an older, hairy man dives into the pool, pulls him out and performs mouth to mouth on him. Roderick's facial expression is priceless and this scene is just so funny, I could not stop laughing.
