Diary of a Wimpy Kid 3: Dog Days is the third film based on the popular book series. It is also the last one with the original cast (as after this, they were too old to play their roles anymore). It's subtle, but in a departure from the previous films (and also the books), it relies less on cringe and toilet humor. It has a loose plot but focuses more on chronicling Greg Heffley's daily life. This time, it is summer vacation and Greg puts in effort to try and get close to Holly. At the same time, his dad is pushing him to be more active and not just stay at home playing video games all day. As a result, he ends up following Rowley into the country club, hanging out, playing tennis and swimming. Unfortunately, as is the Greg way, his lies upon lies start to collate, to the point of being uncontrollable. You are just waiting for it to all tumble down upon Greg. Thankfully, after the focus put on Greg's brother in the second film, he is a lot more palatable this time around. Despite Greg's continual mistakes, there is a moral that the characters learn, and it has a nice heartwarming ending. Dog Days may not be amazing, but there is enough going for it to be an enjoyable film that doesn't bore you.
