Memorable, crazy movie
best movie i've ever seen.
To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Disney's animated shows have given us some of the best entertainment of all time, but the same can't be said about their live-action shows. Come to think of it, I can't think of a single one that most people really like. As far as those go, there's nothing too good or bad about this one. I'm somewhat familiar with the "Lizzie McGuire" series, but I honestly don't think I've ever watched a single live-action Disney show. I look forward to the day when there's one that people can sincerely enjoy. Anyway, this is pretty typical with its clichés. We have Lizzie embarrassing herself at graduation and then there's this friend who eventually falls for her.The movie itself doesn't have anything particularly stupid or offensive, so I guess it's harmless enough to show to kids. I actually do like those little animated parts with her. It does make me reckon back to the days of traditionally animated films. Oh, and we get the rich bully who ends up helping the main character. To be fair, this wasn't really a cliché at this point. It's just been done infinitely better in shows like "Gravity Falls" and "My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic". For me, it's just bland, but I'm too old to care for it. **
The Lizzie McGuire Movie (2003): Dir: Jim Fall / Cast: Hilary Duff, Adam Lamberg, Hallie Todd, Robert Carradine, Jake Thomas: I caught up on my reading during the nauseating premier of this film based on the kids TV program that should only be seen by prison inmates as a form of punishment. It reeks awfulness to the point where Tums should be distributed wherever it is screened. Ninety minutes of TV commercials about air freshener would be more worthy a ticket price. Hilary Duff plays graduate student Lizzie on a class trip to London where she is mistaken as a pop star and asked to replace her until the actual star gets her act together. She is assisted by her best friend who risks consequences when her strict teacher suspects that McGuire may not be ill after all. Lame setup with Duff involved in that ever familiar game of charades as McGuire dons a double life. Directed by Jim Fall with a clever plot solution. Aside from Duff there are a host of supporting players who will no doubt wish that they hadn't had this film on their resume. Adam Lamberg, Hallie Todd and Robert Carradine are cardboard and will likely need heavy therapy after being part of this spectacle. Will kids enjoy it? Perhaps, but the TV show hasn't the phenomenal backing that other TV shows turned films may have. It is simply a promotion for the T.V. show and about as exciting as a kick to the family jewels. Score: 3 / 10
This movie was a great ending to the 'Lizzie McGuire' TV show. I'm left wanting for more, but alas. Nevertheless, the ending worked even if things could have been improved on.If I had to describe 'The Lizzie McGuire Movie' in one word, it would be FUN. This whole movie just had a happy feel to it! I couldn't help feeling happy when watching it! The music was really great and really set the mood for the movie. I loved the last dance number. I remember being really taken in awe when I first watched that performance 7 years ago. Now that I'm older, even if I was never a hardcore fan of the 'Lizzie McGuire' franchise, I can say that rewatching this movie brought back feelings of nostalgia. 'The Lizzie McGuire Movie' was definitely one of Disney's best original works.Viewed on: April 11, 2011
In the year 2003, I heard of this film when it went on circuit in South Africa but I never had the time to watch it! But last week, I got the chance to watch it on t.v and WOW! It brightened up my day when it was dark and gloomy outside.The film showed how much people from reserved countries such as America, South Africa and England ,etc but Americans at most are reserved and the Italians are afraid of those who are cold and reserved! Especially when Mrs.Ungermeyer meeting Paolo when he believed Liizie to be Isabella, she was very cold to him. Also what we think in our heads in a colorful way! I Liked the animated Lizzie when she thought before she acted . That was RADICAL! The sweet, light-hearted dance music which comes from Italy. That blew my mind! I loved that dance music. It made me want to get up and dance!! And , of course, the movie also showed the beautiful background of Italy and the wonders and beauty of love and romance.I love this movie to bits!!!!!!!!!!
