Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Last Straw

Greg Heffley is trying to keep things easy and fun, but his dad Frank wants him to grow up fast and prove he can handle responsibility. When the pressure to show improvement becomes almost a daily routine, Greg fumbles through a string of near disasters that ripple through family life. Rather than a dramatic breakthrough, the story stays light and funny as Greg looks for a way to meet his father's expectations without losing his goofy charm. An ultimatum from Frank threatens to push Greg toward real change, testing his willingness to leave behind his wimpy ways for good.

Directed by Matt Danner, the film adapts Jeff Kinney's diary style for animation and continues the family friendly adventures of Greg Heffley that fans first met in the novels, bringing a modern spin to the familiar humor.
