Now showing: The Wimpy Kid

Posted on 16 March 2010 by Trisha, Managing Editor

Coming to theaters near you this weekend: Diary of a Wimpy Kid, based on Jeff Kinney’s best-selling middle-grade series. The movie hits theaters Friday, and the companion book, Movie Diary of a Wimpy Kid, is in libraries and bookstores today.

Judging from the trailer, the movie looks like a winning adaptation—likely to be a hit with the the 6- to 10-year-old set (and parents wondering how to pass the long hours of spring break).

    They had an online casting call for this movie. My son sent in a video but I guess he wasn’t a good fit for the role. He doesn’t want to see it now! My daughter may go with me though.
