Diary of a Wimpy Kid and How to Train Your Dragon

Hello Internet,

Last Saturday I went to watch two movies: Diary of a Wimpy Kid and How to Train Your Dragon.

I'll start off with Diary of a Wimpy Kid.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid really wasn't that good of a movie. If you are about 8 years old and you enjoyed the book, I would assume you would like this movie. Otherwise, I would recommend you stay away from this movie.

The acting was good, it's just the characters. They have a very cliche personality. A middle school kid who is just a jerk, until he learns his lesson at the end of the movie, an older brother who is mean to his little brother, etc. Everything you'd expect about a stereotypical Caucasian family with 3 kids.

The story is basically the usual lesson that you learn in grade 1. Don't discriminate and be a good friend by sticking up for them.

So, again, if you liked the book, check it out, but don't expect anything good. I would give this movie a 5/10.

Now, How to Train Your Dragon was actually a good movie. How to Train Your Dragon had intense action scenes which kept me on the edge of my seat.

The story, however, was a typical "find someone/thing that character likes, but gets rejected". Alright, so maybe you don't get as many movies like that, which is really good.

There's not much to say about the movie without spoiling it, but it is indeed a very good movie. Go watch it. I would rate this movie a 8/10.

Well, that's just my opinion, if you read the book of either movie, or watched the movie, tell me, did you enjoy it? Did you loathe it? Post your comments below.

Thanks for reading,
