It is also a storybook and movie that is a series of short stories. "Little Naughty Nicolas" reflects the author's innocence and inspirational imagination everywhere. The story is full of pure innocence and good times. Nicolas, The vivid images of Clotaire, Geoffroy, etc. come alive on paper and on the screen, making people unforgettable. And "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" is also a story about children in school. Although the vivid style of the original comics is interspersed, it is full of American-style arrogance and surly. I don't know what the original storybook is like. Anyway, in the movie Everywhere is the competition and conflict of children with strong utilitarian intentions, and the protagonist Greg can be described as a master of vain, selfish, surly, arrogant, self-centered, critical and other bad characters, although the actor who plays the protagonist Zachary Gordon looks good too, but I don't like the character at all. In other words, if I was born in the United States, I guess my childhood was spent in obscurity in a corner...
I think this cultural difference is also the reason why there are so many "handsome guys and beauties" in the United States but not many "cute girls". Maybe you want to say that Greg repented at the end of the film, and everyone returned to a happy ending. I was just about to say that the problem of the screenwriter of this film is also an important reason for the imbalance of the characters. It is also a movie composed of a large number of short stories. Although "Little Naughty Nikolai" can clearly see the jokes one by one, the whole film has Nikolai's fear that his unborn brother will take away his favor. The clues are packaged in series, so that the overall coherence is still very good; and "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" does not do this at all. The simple short stories are piled up, not only there are no clues, but even the development of the characters is abrupt, fat man. Rowley has always been unlucky. When he broke his hand, he suddenly became the focus of attention of a female classmate (a first-year student) who was very motherly. The final desperation suddenly awakens and returns to the right, giving people the feeling of being forced to form an alliance with Rowley in the face of adversity; Greg's brother was so strong in the first half that he hit Greg completely, but suddenly disappeared after one of Greg's counterattacks; Chloë Moretz, who has brilliant performances in 500 Days with Summer" and "Kipian King", the senior girl played in this film seems to be a prophet-type character, I always thought she was going to have an impact on the protagonist. Significant influence, I didn't expect that until the end, she also came out to comment and left, and she was completely soy sauce. These are the responsibility of the screenwriter for not organizing the adaptation of the storybook well.
Having said so much, it seems to have been approved for nothing. In fact, the quality of the whole movie is still good. Let's look at the childhood of American children who are not quiet, living in a completely different environment, worrying about completely different things, and spending a completely different time.
In short, one is the problem of American culture, and the other is the responsibility of the screenwriter. Although some stories are very interesting, and the high-pitched voice of the lip-synching is very pleasant, this film still tells a very arrogant American-style value precocious friendship story. It can be seen as a high-quality campus movie, but it lacks innocence and emotion.
