Hannah Montana - Le film

Some of these people remind me of freaking' critics! Everything has to be Oscar-worthy or it's just a crappy movie!

Let's take a look at the fundamentals of what makes up "Hannah Montana: the movie"

First: It is a Disney movie...not pixar! Need I say more... Second: It's Hannah Montana...have you people even seen the show? Third: This is a kids movie for Hannah Montanna fans!

Go in the theater expecting a heavily-clichéd, predictable, possibly nausea-inducing performance from Miley and the gang and all will be fine.

Sit back, relax, laugh at the childish-jokes. It is a kids movie!

When the film was released in 2009 I was in my early 20's and Miley a Cyrus was becoming the biggest thing In the world. Watching the film 12 years later my thought of the film had changed a lot. When first released I loved the film it's family fun Disney film aimed more at its target audience of preteen girls and teen to young adult girls. Now watching this as a 34 year old I see the film in different eyes.

The film is not a bad film like most people say it is it's a fun family film. It's silly and the acting is not the best but it is what it is.

I hope anyone who is the parent or is a relative of young girls will overlook the negative review comments from what appear to be adult men. I saw the movie today with my sister and her 8-year-old granddaughter. We all loved it and we laughed a lot. Anyone who has a young girl, fathers too, I think will enjoy this film. It's not going to win an Oscar for acting but it sure gets my vote for light entertainment. I liked the music from both Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift; they have different styles.

I'm am puzzled at the number of men who are reviewing a movie that is designed for little girls. I selected a couple of the reviewers who gave the movie one star and looked up some of their other reviews. I one case, his favorite movie contained a lot of violence and bloodshed.

At any rate, I give it an eight because it successfully did what it set out to do. That is to let a lot of little girls and their loved ones have a good time.

At this writing, the rating is 3.0 with 8908 votes. I would have expected 3.5 It's fluff, poorly done, with wooden "acting" and the certainty of purpose it seems only a teen could take seriously... and yet its target audience loves it.

And, although I hate to make the comparison, exactly what redeeming features did Elvis or Beatles movies have? In retrospect, not much.

I've been lucky enough to only be forced to watch one episode of the series, and from what I can tell the movie is just more of the same. If science ever discovers a cure for whatever it is that makes kids like this stuff, great... otherwise, this is typical and there will be more.

I will just add that I personally found absolutely no trace of realism or usefulness in this entire movie.

I went to this movie with three of my nieces and a theater full of children, girls AND boys alike. I was expecting a horrible movie because I cannot stand the television show. I was pleasantly surprised. Though not perfect, Miley Cyrus's acting has improved A LOT. The story and plot was okay for the most part, even though the ending was disappointing to me. Though it may be deemed cliché by many, it was very entertaining and was very "cute." The Hannah/Miley of the show has certainly developed in character, growing from bratty to somewhat mature - at least, empathetic. The moral teaches empathy and caring about your family/friends. And, of course, there was a daughter/father bonding moment, which many people can relate to. These are lessons I definitely agree with! On the flip side, there is a lot of glitz and makeup applying which may lead girls to be prematurely interested in these things. But that's up to the parents to steer their children the right way and not let them grow up too fast. In the end, my nieces loved it, of course, and it was nice to be able to see a clean, family movie with them.
