Growing up ainât what it used to be. While the teen years can be a confusing time at best, kids seem intent on moving into adulthood as fast as possible, particularly when it comes to their sexuality. Because of this, many schools have started teaching ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at FilmStew.com

I already know that I am not the prime target for this movie. I've seen one episode of "The Lizzie McGuire Show" but I still wanted to view the movie from an outsider's point of view. What I found was an experience so sugary sweet that it helps me ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Brokedown Cinema
MovieFreak.com (Sara M. Fetters)
One of the hottest shows on cable television, and broadcast every Saturday morning on ABC, Lizzie McGuire has become a full-out phenomenon for the 16-and-under set. Itâs easy to see why. The show is breezily paced, has a surprisingly good supporting ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at MovieFreak.com (Sara M. Fetters)

In The Lizzie Maguire Movie, Lizzie and some of her TV-series classmates, Gordo (Adam Lamberg), snooty Kate (Ashlie Brillault) and clueless skateboarder Ethan (Clayton Snyder) graduate from junior high and go on a class trip to Rome where they're ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at TeenHollywood.com (Lynn Barker)

If your kids are too young to sit unsupervised, get together with other parents and pay an older sibling or sitter to go. ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Washington Post (Jane Horwitz)
Apollo Guide (Brian Webster)
Movies aimed at young teen girls can be measured in either of two ways â like every other movie, or using the Olsensâ Test. When judged like every other movie, almost every one of these movies fails miserably. After all, they tend to be formulaic, ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Apollo Guide (Brian Webster)
Tyler Morning Telegraph (Texas) (Jonathan R. Perry)
If you fit into its target demographic, 'The Lizzie McGuire Movie' is inoffensive fluff. If your age surpasses your shoe size, youre better off re-grouting your tile. ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Tyler Morning Telegraph (Texas) (Jonathan R. Perry)
Globe and Mail (Ray Conlogue)
Altogether a wasted opportunity from a Disney organization which grows more sclerotic by the minute. ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Globe and Mail (Ray Conlogue)

Director Jim Fall's The Lizzie McGuire Movie is not a movie at all; it's a 90-minute advertisement for Hilary Duff. ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Hollywood.com (Guylaine Cadorette)
Nitrate Online (Cynthia Fuchs)
Now, he's directed Lizzie McGuire's transition from her enormously popular Disney TV series to her likely-to-do-just-fine Disney movie. Their pairing is more productive than you might imagine, but mostly, it's vaguely perverse (though not enough that any ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Nitrate Online (Cynthia Fuchs)

While I hate to devote (and am even more embarrassed to admit to using) any brain cells to the matter, after watching The Lizzie McGuire Movie, I’m convinced we have yet another Britney Spears waiting in the wings. With Spears’ popularity ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at filmcritic.com (David Levine)

Fans will flock to see this movie, but if you're not one and get coerced into buying a ticket anyway, my apologies. ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at The Movie Insider (Lynda Lin)
Movie Gazette (Gary Panton)
Suddenly, I have a horrible feeling I completely misjudged 'What A Girl Wants'. I gave that movie 2 out of 10, thinking it impossible for the similarly-themed 'Lizzie McGuire Movie' to be even worse. I was wrong, which presents me with a conundrum - ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Movie Gazette (Gary Panton)

f class trumped race in Curtis Hanson's 8 Mile then pop culture similarly outperforms ancient culture in Jim Falls' The Lizzie McGuire Movie, a culture-shock sitcom tailor-made for the teeny bopper sect. Pretty yet clumsy Lizzie McGuire (Hilary Duff) has ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at Slant Magazine

The movie is merely an extension of Duffâs popular Disney television show where she plays the superficial title character Lizzie McGuire a recent middle-school grad, here on a two-week class trip to Rome. But, after a day of touring the sites with her ...read the complete Lizzie McGuire Movie movie review at filmcritic.com
