Ron’s Gone Wrong was a cute little film. It had a great moral to the story, which every child that has their own phone can certainly relate to. Social media has done wonders for communication but on the flip side, it’s so much easier now to bully. It happens every day and kids need to be shown what can happen and how to handle themselves.
In my theater, there were a number of families watching with me. From my observations, children above seven will enjoy and understand it. Any younger than that, I noticed they fell asleep. Also, I feel that it’s too childish for teenagers. So we’ll say between seven and twelve would be the perfect ages to get the most out of it.

I do many visits up to Asheville, North Carolina each year. That is where RunPee Dan, creator/owner/president and all-around pain in my arse resides upon his porcelain throne. (Also known as my brother, older brother…much older brother) Our family loves to watch movies together. On my most recent visit, we watched The Mitchells vs. the Machines. That movie is very close to Ron’s Gone Wrong. It’s almost the same movie. I feel that ‘The Mitchells’ was much funnier and more engaging. This movie was still cute and I would recommend it for the younger crowd.

RunPee.com owes RunPee Sis a huge debt of gratitude. She sees any movie needed with no complaints and has done so for ten years (even basing Thanksgiving and Christmas family festivities around the seeing films). In 2015 Sis ran the entire RunPee enterprise herself, while RunPee Dan, Jilly and Mom went traipsing off to Europe. Sis is the spider in the web holding the RunPee family together — besides being a funny, well rounded person, and a joyous pleasure to be around. Her favorite films start and end with horror (which thank goodness she’s happy to see, since most of us don’t have the stomach for it) — but also likes silly comedies, sad dramas, and musicals of all types. If you’ve used a Peetime for a scary film, you probably have RunPee Sis to thank for it.
Favorite movie genre: Horror, horror, and more horror. The more disturbing, the better. Period.

This movie was delightful. I really enjoyed it.

I’m really happy to hear that. Have you by chance seen “The Mitchells vs the Machines?”
