While Cyrus's droll performance (Miley's not Billy Ray's) deserves better material, this is still amply entertaining.

Cyrus, as always, is a professional charmer (it's hard to resist when she leads a hip-hop hoedown), and the crusty folkiness of Billy Ray Cyrus as her real-life dad is as welcome as ever.

Rotten
The bottom line is that I don't think you are going to care.
Ben Mankiewicz, At the Movies
Rotten
Aside from a few cameos and a big benefit concert to save her hometown from evil land developers, there's nothing really that makes the movie stand out from the TV show.
Ben Lyons, At the Movies
Rotten
Thin as a flip-flop and as complicated as a scrunchy, the plot is barely enough for half a movie. At the 45-minute point, things are pretty much wrapped up.
