Before I give my review of this movie, let me first turn in my MAN CARD. For Cadence's 4th birthday, we decided to enter into the Blu Ray universe be getting her Hannah Montana the Movie. Honestly, not my first choice! I was hoping for Star Trek, Superman, or even Star Wars to kick it off. Instead, I get Hannah Montana. I suppose my saving grace is that we still don't own a Blu Ray player yet. When Melissa bought the movie, it came with a DVD version of the movie, which brings me to my review.
I was well aware of how campy the Disney show is, so I was expecting the same kind of campiness. To my surprise, the movie didn't go there, at least not enough to get me to roll my eyes and wish I had a gun to end it all. Sure there were a few moments where I would ask Melissa, "How can this happen?" For instance, while during a Mrs. Doubtfire moment, Miley is alternating between a governor's dinner and a date. During one of the switches, she returns after changing clothes and keeping the lobster bib on. Would that of been taken care of during her changing clothes? Another moment for me was when towards the end, Miley is on stage singing a song that she just wrote and was going to debut it in front of a live crowd. It was safe to assume that her band never heard of the song before, but apparently knew how it was going to go and performed it without any practice. Despite a few of the movie's inconsistencies, the storyline was pretty good. I enjoyed the fish out of water moments that Miley had going back to her grandmother's farm. As much as I can do without Billy Ray Cyrus, I thought his role was used enough to not completely hate him.
All in all, your kids will love the movie! I think it's safe to say that adults could tolerate the movie, even if they're sick of the Hannah Montana craze. The movie is safe, and so is the franchise.
