When i decided to watch this i was expecting something so bad that i can laugh at, but instead i got a movie so bad that it was annoying.The acting is terrible, the story is the most cliched and predictable thing a writer can come up with, and the music...my god.The thing that annoyed me the most is the music. It plays constantly. I can't think of a single scene that doesn't have music or some kind of sound effect. Even though the earlier films aren't good by any stretch of the word, they at least didn't play music whenever something embarrassing or what they thing is funny happens.Another thing that was infuriating was the constant electronic references. It's obvious that the writers think they're writing something that the kids would relate to, but instead it seems like they haven't touched an iphone or anything that requires a battery.I wouldn't recommend this to anyone including children and not even people who want to laugh at a terrible movie.The only reason i'm not giving this a 2 or 1 is because I've seen worse movies. That doesn't excuse this film though.

Hey everybody, I'm back again for another review, and guess what? I've seen Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul. Now before anything, I'd like to talk about the Diary of a Wimpy kid series, for me, the books are my favorite series of books, they just have very realistic aspects in life like Sibling humiliation and Popularity struggle and the humor was fantastic and I personally thought the live-action movies were good as well, they had a casting that matched perfectly, it stayed true to the books, the 2D animation scenes were very impressive. Alrigth, enough of me, let's go back to this movie: The plot is about Greg and his family are going on a car trip to visit Greg's great grandmother, however, Greg instead wants to go on a convention to make a video with a Youtuber named Digby, which will then stop turning Greg into a complete joke. The Pros: There were a lot of emotional moments between the family, seeing they finally talk and connect to each other makes the movie really really sad, plus, there were a lot of funny moments, but most of them consisted of characters acting like idiots, which then creates the cons. The Cons: 1. The characters in this are BAAAAAAAD! First off let's talk about the old characters: Greg turned into a realistic kid who was trying to fit in into a Squidward stereotype, seriously, Greg always get's tortured all the time, and some of the Greg torture aren't even pleasant, but that'll be mentioned later, Rodrick can have some funny moments, but overall, he just act's like an idiot who cares about himself, hell, he even made Greg get the money of the convention, only to Rodrick use on his van, Manny is an annoying cry baby who cries for everything, Rowling has zero personality , Mr. Hefley is a moron who only cares about his job, and Mrs. Hefley is the only good character since she's responsible for unlike any other parent in a bad movie. And were only beginning with the cast, Greg's great grandmother is the same as Rowley, Digby is a fat liar and a douche-bag since he humiliates Greg in front of everyone, The Bearded man is a really gross and brainless man who's the main antagonist of the film, and the Bearded's kids are brats who get Greg in trouble. 2. The gross-out is atrocious, and I can't believe these scenes weren't cut away so it could make the movie more pleasant to watch. 3. The plot is very lazy, even if you have only read the plot, you would still know the plot is just using plots from other road trip movies which have the same idea. 4. The reveals like Greg playing in the phone the whole time or Greg getting out of a hotel near the convention were not revealed in a good time and this makes all of the sad moments not timed well. 5. The casting doesn't match the characters at all, and that says a lot because in the movies, they matched perfectly and were well chosen, this cast on the other hand tries to act like the others, but they aren't anywhere near as well chosen as his predecessors. 6. The references in these do not work, not only because they look like cheap excuses for money, but because kids may not get it, because a lot of kids don't know about Dunkin' Donuts, Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory, the CGI Mario games, Psycho, Minecraft and even Mad Max, do you think the kids know about any of these? No! Then good, you don't know how references work. Overall, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul sucks as a movie sequel, no matter what, if you hate it or like it, I still think this is definitely one of the worst sequels ever, now what I really want is to Fox get the original cast, trust me, this new one isn't going to make things better.

A Heffley family road trip to attend Meemaw's 90th birthday party goes hilariously off course thanks to Greg's newest scheme to get to a video gaming convention. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul is the 4th installment of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Franchise and without a doubt it's the worst one of them all it's Jaws 4: The Revenge kind of bad from the awful and over the top acting to the awful dialogue and of course plot which there isn't any actually. Plus i've never seen worse acting from kids in years like this film has from the main character to his brother and beyond and the whole "diaper hands" joke wasn't even that funny jeez and it goes on forever and ever. The only thing i liked was Alicia Silverstone's performance she was at least acting and she is an OK actress in general plus this film is way worse than Batman and Robin at least that movie was funny. (0/10)

I had high hopes for this film, until I saw it. This movie could have been like the previous films that where okay and kinda good, but at everything they did right in the previous films they did wrong with this one. The problem is the movie feels rushed and trying to move to the next joke, the jokes are unfunny and childish. Not only are the jokes childish but the acting is the worst I have ever seen. Not only that but the characters are complete idiots and feel unreal, in past films they felt real and relatable. Unlike this one the movie tries to relate to the audience with references of "Mad Max" and Markiplier but fail to do so. Overall it was a big disappointment, I give it a 4/10.
