Never thought I would but I did...lol

Now I can already hear it...You went to see Hannah Montana: The Movie, yes I did...Why you ask? Well this is what happens when its Spring Break for the kiddies and there is nothing else to do but possibly sleep...lol

Hannah Montana: The Movie is the film adaptation of the American teen sitcom "Hannah Montana". This was one of those films where you have to mentally prepare your mind for what is about to go down. Lots and lots of little girls screaming and singing with their favorite girl power heroine.

Miley Stewart (Miley Cyrus) has become a bit overwhelmed with her alter-ego's Hannah Montana's popularity. After missing saying goodbye to her brother because she was shopping, and coming late to her best friend Lilly's sweet sixteen as Hannah, her father, Robby (Billy Ray Cyrus) tricks Miley into going back to her hometown, Crowley Corners, Tennessee, to do a bit of reflecting on all the things that really matter in her life. I must admit Disney sure as way of slipping in those story-lines to make you really think and get the true lesson out of life.

This was definitely a clever move to boost the Hannah Montana franchise, because without a doubt they definitely cashed in on the tween girls! The plot was a bit disengaging even for the girls but that was probably not the motive or intent. In previous years, the Disney Channel has produced two other theatrical tv films both doing pretty ok, but let's keep in mind the audience that they are trying to target. So what do you get when you turn a tv series into a film...redundant, boring acting, little character development, and weak/ cheesy punchlines. But then again this is Disney TV.

I will add this never get your kids the jumbo size anything popcorn and DEFINITELY not the drink or else you will be making several trips to the restroom (plus having to stand in the long lines!!).

Grade: C/B-
