DISNEY Channel’s phenomenally popular Hannah Montana transformed Miley Cyrus into a teen pin-up overnight when the series debuted in 2006.

Now, the teenager returns to the big screen in the perky pop princess’ first dramatic feature, searching for love in this sentimental drama, interspersed with musical sequences.

It’s drizzled with sentiment and peppered with values. To classmates, Miley Stewart is a normal teenager. But to millions of screaming fans, she is global pop superstar Hannah Montana.

When she loses sight of her humble beginnings, she’s brought back home under false pretences. At first, she resents being taken away from her glitzy lifestyle but soon settles back into small town life, enjoying a flirtation with childhood crush Travis.

Then she faces having to juggle her twin identities when asked to do a benefit concert.

Miley is a lovable livewire, the film is a wish fulfilment.
