It was FANTASTIC. BETTER than HANNAH MONTANA THE MOVIE.

It diverged off the path of the usually slapstick show so much.
There were some real heart warming scenes.
Action packed scenes had me on the edge of my seat.
When Alex won I almost died.
I did feel bad for Justin.

What a twist.
The story line was great as well.
Very creative.

Selena did a FANTASTIC job. This movie really showcased her full acting potential.
She truly made everyone feel sorry for the usually rough, tough Alex.
She brought another side to Alex all together.

Of course it was much better than the Hannah Montana movie, better plot, MUCH better acting from selena than from miley.

i feel like wizards of waverly place always gets the short end of the stick even though its definately the better show with more talented actors, better plots, and way more heart than hannah montana does. its kind of sucky.

The only reason HM gets more attention is because of Miley and her celebrity persona. She's a bigger celeb than Selena.
Hopefully, Selena will eventually overpower Miley.

Yeah because every little girl wants to be a pop star and know what it's like to be one. Hannah kind of shows the two sides of that dream. But I agree, Wizards is way better.

This movie trumps HMTM, it has a moral, it is heart warming, adults as well as kids will love and enjoy this movie. The acting is way better, the story line is better and not about a girl who had the whole world handed to her, learned her lesson, came out to her small town and still got the boy. It was nice to see Alex really truly show remorse for her actions in order to save her family. Hannah only came out to her town because she upset her boyfriend (whom she was leaving anyways to go back to CA).

I was truly impressed with this movie. I love the story and the moral. Family above all else. :)

Although i haven't seen the hannah montana movie, i still gotta say this movie is really good and probably better. I really felt sorry for alex and it had a good storyline.

anything but ordinary please

This was a very good movie. Disney as I remember it kinda, I grew up on disney films and lets face it they've fallen off in the last decade or so. But anyways back to the movie, while you've seen the plot many times before it still kept you wondering. The acting was superb, Jake T Austin does much better than expected in a role where he could have been a cliche, Selena Gomez and David Henrie were beyond convincing in their roles, their scenes together were my favorite! While the brother/sister relationship was in tact you could see that they ginuinely love and care for eachother and credit goes to Ms. Gomez and Mr. Henrie for that. After seeing this I wonder what they will do next both have good careers ahead of them if they play their cards right. Their scenes were just so natural. Credit also goes to Mr. David Deluise and Maria Berrero (sorry forgot her name), the chemistry between the family makes you believe that they are really a tight nit family. To David Deluise your icon of a father would be proud of you for this performance. Hope they expand on the characters in the future and go for a feature film I would see it.

I liked Hannah better. Even though hannah was cheesy and predictable too, I liked the feel of that movie better. This one just seemed like something I've seen before.

I like Selena but her acting was the same as it is on the show nothing new.

This was a cute family movie though.

Well, I won't call this movie fantastic, but it was good and enjoyable. My only wish was it could have been a theatrical release, then it perhaps would have been a little bit longer.

I'm tired of saying my opinion of "Hannah Montana The Movie".

Anything is better than Hannah Montana.
