It's a G-rated movie, so it's not going to be anything groundbreaking, but Joey King gives a charming, capable performance in the role of Ramona and the movie was more entertaining than I expected.

Joey King delivers an adorable performance as a means-well 9-year-old whose efforts seem to oft go awry. Built around its lovable cast and tight script, Romana and Beezus provides one of the better G-rated comedies of this generation.

"At over 100 minutes, Ramona and Beezus is a hefty cinematic effort to get through, especially considering how audience-surveyed and clichéd the film proves" - Adam Keleman

This movie reminded me of "Dennis the Menace" and "Diary of a Wimpy Kid". It's kind of built on comic strip kind of characters (though actually a series of youth books). It's an okay type of movie, but there's really nothing special about it that sets it aside from the many other movies that its similar to.

It's cute, and captures the spirit of a book well.

Family comedy based on the book of the same name by Beverly Cleary, about a girl who is tormented by her mischievous little sister. cheerfully innocuous if generically uninspired... While its cast -- including newcomer Joey King as Ramona and Selena Gomez as her older sister Beezus -- delivers uniformly breezy performances, most everything else about Ramona's move to the multiplex feels unremarkable.
