Animated “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” Streams on Disney+

Directed by Swinton O. Scott III, Diary of a Wimpy Kid delivers an animated movie filled with similar situations described in Jeff Kinney’s bestselling books. In this 56-minute movie, Greg Heffley, voiced by Brady Noon, enters middle school and potentially explosive problems and hazards to friendships.

Personified as a digital, bulbous boy, Heffley appears to stumble through misadventures with his buddy, Rowley, voiced by Ethan William Childress. Together they ride out the dreadful mishaps of trying to social fit as a middle schooler. As seen in the trailer, the importance of saying “hang out” instead of “come over and play.” Remember not to go near or touch the revolting piece of swiss cheese in the playground.

Whether they’ve read the books, kids will enjoy the movie, and perhaps encourage them to pick up one of Kinny’s books to read since the film is less than an hour. Kids might want to read about more of Heffley’s mishaps.

Thank you, New York Times information about the movie.

“Good Boys” Poster, Clip, Featurette & Trailers

With a name like Gene Stupnitsky, Good Boys is a perfect movie for him to direct with movie actors producing – Lee Eisenberg and Seth Rogen.

The movie follows three grade-school boys who panic after being invited to his first kissing party, Max, played by Jacob Tremblay. He had never kissed a girl before, and his rites of passage had arrived.

In need of pointers on how to kiss a girl, Max and his best friends Thor and Lucas, played by Brady Noon and Keith L. Williams, come up with some bright ideas. They borrow Max’s dad’s drones to spy on a teenage couple making out next door.

But when things go ridiculously wrong, the drone is destroyed. Desperate to replace the drone, Max’s dad, played by Will Forte, gets home; the boys skip school and set off on an odyssey of bad decisions. Their odyssey involves accidentally stolen drugs, frat-house paintball, and running from both the cops and terrifying teenage girls, played by Molly Gordon and Midori Francis. 

The movie is available on Blu-ray, DVD, and streaming. It did poorly at the box office, so now you can watch it at home. The bonus features are an alternative ending and ten extended or deleted scenes.  

Watch the red-band trailer and decide if you can’t believe they have boys saying and doing these things.

The second trailer reiterates how disgusting this movie will be. It is funny at some points, but the raunchy jokes are gross.

The following movie clip shows how south this movie goes. There are R-rated clips, but I decided not to show them. Tactless!
