Critic Reviews

  • Sheri Linden, Hollywood Reporter

    Director Jim Fall has orchestrated Lizzie's dream vacation with energy and humor.

  • Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

    ... [Duff's] a very charming young actress, but the material just isn't there.

  • Desson Thomson, Washington Post

    Doesn't try to be more than what it is: a romantic fantasy caper.

  • Jane Horwitz, Washington Post

    A smug, cutesy music video/ fashion show for [Hilary] Duff.

  • Daphne Gordon, Toronto Star

    The story is essentially flawed, and so is the presentation.

    Disney is kind of ruining the film industry with shit like this.

    The songs had you wanting to dance along and sing and it's a real teen movie. I think I'll always have a soft spot for this film. It's a guilty pleasure and Lizzie McGuire was a noughtie's favourite on the Disney Channel. Smart move making a film from it.

  • Matt G


    Saw this years ago by accident on a plane. Seriously, only if you are a fan of the T.V. show then see it, if you aren't, stay FAR away.

  • Bentley L


    Cute, sweet, funny and watchable. We were never big fans of the series but the movie does satisfy. Though tween girls are the film's demographic, it has humor for guys and adults. Good family film. "We're going to the place where they invented spaghetti!"
