The third installment of the Wimpy Kid series. Have enjoyed the first two. Don't think they can keep it entertaining forever....
It's summertime and Greg and the gang are headed to the 8th grade in the fall. Greg has plans to make the most of his summer by playing video games and getting closer to Holly. His father on the other hand thinks he should be doing active sports and pretty much forbids him from playing any games. However, fortune smiles on Greg when he discovers that Rowley has a membership to a prestigious country club and Holly is also a member. There, he makes plans to salvage his summer, even going so far as to lie to his parents about working there.
As always in these scenarios, the parents find out the truth and after the most recent turn at disappointing him, he faces the threat of being sent off to Spag Union, a disciplinary boarding school. A Wilderness Scouts retreat with his father is Greg's final chance to save himself and change his father's mind.
Stray Quotage:
"Fregly claims to wear a special cologne, but everyone knows he just never washes."
"In case we don't make it, there's something I must tell you, "one time I went to the bathroom without washing my hands.
One time I used your toothbrush to get dog poop off my shoe.
Wait, what?"
The Wimpy Kid movies are always good for a laugh. Especially that Chirag Gupta. [Man, that little dude is hilarious.] But the one thing I've taken away from these films is that no one is really aging but the dude that plays Greg. He's noticeably getting older and the weird thing is, Roderick, who's supposed to be the oldest sibling, isn't. Man, it must suck to hit puberty on film. I bet that money is right though.
