Critical Response

• "It's tailor-made for kids to sing and dance along with, and they might not notice that it's not quite as fresh or imaginative, relatively speaking, as the original was." - Allmusic

• "Puppy love is grand, but for anyone who truly appreciates the let's-put-on-a-show spirit that 'HSM' embodies, I'm not sure that [Tisdale] isn't the real heroine after all." - Entertainment Weekly
