Greg Heffley is headed for big things, but first he has to survive the scariest, most humiliating experience of any kid’s life – middle school! That won’t be easy, considering he’s surrounded by hairy-freckled morons, wedgie-loving bullies and a moldy slice of cheese with nuclear cooties!

Writing
Greg's narration perfectly captures a 12-year-old's delusion.
Costume
Rodrick's entire Hot Topic aesthetic is chef's kiss.

Director
Thor Freudenthal
