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 genuinely enjoyed this. I didn't see that coming.
'Hannah Montana: The Movie' kept me suitably entertained from start-to-finish, it is so much better than I would've predicted. I have never seen an episode of the television series either.
It features a surprisingly interesting and fairly meaningful story, sure the ending is extremely Disneyfied and nonsensical but they make it work. For what it is, it's a relatively engaging storyline. There are a few bits of neat cinematography, also. Music-wise it's alright, "The Climb" is a (good) song that I was already familiar with.
Miley Cyrus does a respectable job in the lead role(s). Billy Ray Cyrus, Margo Martindale, Vanessa Williams and Barry Bostwick all feature too, as does a young Natalia Dyer. I like the casting.
I had very low expectations coming into this, but it's a film that pleasantly surprised me. I'd say it's worthy of a watch.

not really good,but still entertaining and worth watching.did not turn out what i thought it would be and certainly not Miley's best but still it was not bad,nor good,it was alright,i am a big fan of Miley Cyrus and have been watching the show since 7.but the movie was disappointing,watching the trailer was exciting but to be absolutely truthful,the movie was just okay and not ''great'',so i think this movie could have done better but did'not.Billy Ray was in the movie and i thought he would be great at first ,and Jason Eales was excellent and Miley was okay too,Emily was fabulous,like always,so i think the movie was not perfect,but certainly not a complete fail.
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.

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!
