Leaving... Based on the hit Disney television show, HANNAH MONTANA/MILEY CYRUS: BEST OF BOTH WORLDS CONCERT TOUR 3-D provides dedicated fans an all-access pass to the Best of Both Worlds concert tour. Leaving behind character Miley Stewart, the concert instead splits time between pop phenom Hannah Montana and Cyrus, who assumes the role of Montana's "ordinary girl" alter ego. Footage of the concert is interspersed with numerous behind-the-scene vignettes. Among these are pre-tour rehearsals--orchestrated by HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL impresario Kenny Ortega--and a touching jam session with father Billy Ray Cyrus. Also included are ecstatic fan testimonials and the film's most humorous moment, in which fathers race each other in high-heeled shoes for the chance to win concert tickets and backstage passes. Montana/Cyrus is joined on stage by the Jonas Brothers, who whip up the crowd with their own brand of high-energy pop. The film employs most of its 3-D tricks in the opening credits then pulls back the reins to focus on giving viewers the next best thing to actually being at the show. Filled with fist-pumping anthems ("Girls Night Out," "Nobody's Perfect," and the title track), BEST OF BOTH WORLDS remains true to the television show's dual personality theme: through good times and bad, every girl is her own superstar. For fans and parents alike, it's a wholesome and empowering message wrapped up in pure infectious fun. [More]

Parents of younger fans will be pleased to note that although there's lots of jumping about and running around plus enough lipgloss to paint the Forth Bridge, there is not so much as a hint of raunch.

Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert is a diverting 3-D artifact of Ms. Cyrus’s just concluded tour.

I can't help admiring the enthusiasm and musicality Miley Cyrus brings to her routines -- both as Hannah Montana and herself.

Some movies are critic-proof -- some for the wrong reasons, some for the right ones. This one falls into the latter camp.

An infectious, high-energy performance picture that overcomes its rather unsavory purpose by barreling forward with a nuclear bomb of tween enthusiasm and vivid displays of over-choreographed celebration.

Once the movie (and the ringing in your ears) stop, though, it's obvious why Cyrus has become such a phenomenon. She's pretty and stylish but never a mean girl, energetic and popular but not conceited.

Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus is Bubble Yum for the eyes and ears. But given the demographic, that works.

Cyrus' fans will receive this material as Moses received those tablets from Mount Sinai.

Obviously, there's no replicating the real thing. But it's as close as you'll come to achieving the best of both worlds.

What this concert film and documentary makes clear is that the real Miley is not just like her predominantly pre-adolescent, female fans.

For this crowd, Best of Both Worlds is a concert film on the level of Stop Making Sense and The Last Waltz.

For the parents at least, this filmed concert is probably better than actually being there.

This movie either marks the end of civilization or it's just jolly good fun.

...not a great concert, but a pretty good one, and great seats.

One's opinion of it may depend more on age and parental status than exposure to other rock-concert films. But there's no denying the film delivers on its promise.

I can't think of a better recommendation for the DVD... than the fact that my two sons wanted to watch it.

Whether you like the music or not, you can't fault Miley -- this young lady works her petite fanny off performing for her fans, and she seems to be having a great time doing it ...

The movie spectacular to fulfill your little girls' wildest dreams, and at a considerably lower rate than the live concert.
