Review Quotes
- "Cyrus certainly is something; there's talent there, though her steely, bleached-teeth glare of determination obscures it. The movie packages both sides of the personality coin. Rating: 2 stars (fair)"—Chicago TribuneChicago Tribune: Hannah Montana The Movie - 2 Stars (April 9, 2009)
- "The high-energy songs are designed to keep eight-year-olds bouncing in their seats, the actors work well together, and the script, by TV vet Daniel Berendsen, hits mostly high notes.Grownups may be put off by the blatant hypocrisy of the ending, which shamelessly reverses the movie's anti-Hollywood message at the last minute. But then, this industry's always found a way to have the best of both worlds."—NY Daily NewsNY Daily News: Hannah Montana: The Movie Review (April 9, 2009)
