The success of The Lizzie McGuire Movie, in which Duff acts and sings while playing both her beloved character and an Italian look-alike, is probably a slam dunk. That doesn't mean it's a great movie.

Reviews for The Lizzie McGuire Movie
Certainly, it's foolish to expect much from kids' films, but that should hardly be an excuse to create something as willfully inane and sloppy as The Lizzie McGuire Movie.
05/02/03
The Lizzie McGuire Movie is just the thing for all the kids out there who have come to know and love Lizzie McGuire. Anyone looking for a terrific movie the whole family can enjoy is advised to see Holes.

Good clean fun.

Top CriticAltogether a wasted opportunity from a Disney organization which grows more sclerotic by the minute.

Top CriticIt is good, clean fun and likely does not spell the end of Western civilization.
05/02/03
Little more than a series of mistimed gags and overused and overly cutesy animated 'asides.'
05/02/03
The movie is sweet and fun and so much like the Gidget movies I grew up with that I fully expected Moondoggie to show up with his surfboard.
05/02/03
[Borstein] is the only really delightful element in the movie; everything else is simply slick and professional.
05/02/03
Top CriticThose familiar with the popular and titular Disney channel series will be satisfied.

It beats the Olsen twins. But not by much.

I'll be straight with you: you're not going to love this movie. It's not meant for you. It's meant for little girls. And as a little girl, I would have loved it.
05/02/03
[Hilary Duff] isn't ready for the big screen -- not without a movie big enough to share it with her.
05/02/03
Even as bubble-gum moviemaking goes, this is one thin Lizzie.

Shockingly wholesome and lots of fun, Lizzie's just the kind of girl parents want their children to hang out with.
05/02/03
Though likely to induce a saccharine seizure for a general audience, the movie is perfect for a girls' night out for mothers and their preteen daughters.
05/02/03
A superficial escapist fantasy for fans of the show.
05/02/03
Weak scripting and amateurish camerawork scream lowest common denominator.
