Hannah Montana Movie!

My daughters, ages 5 and 3, are both obsessed with Hannah Montana. This is admittedly my fault, since I let them watch the show and play the games on the Disney website. However, I was surprised recently when my 3-year-old asked if we could go to the Hannah Montana concert. I told her no, and she started to sob. Not bratty, fake, if-I-keep-doing-this-I-will-get-what-I-want sobs, but genuine, heartbroken sobs. I explained to her that the concert was too expensive, and she replied that she would make the tickets herself so we wouldn’t have to pay for them. She then made the tickets with construction paper and marker.

Needless to say, I still did not take them to the concert, but we did the next best thing and saw the Hannah Montana movie at the Zigfeld theater. The movie was actually much better than I expected. Instead of an extra long episode of the Hannah Montana show, which I anticipated, the movie showcased the Hannah Montana concert tour. The movie was in 3D, which was not essential to the film, but it was fun, and did give a vague sense of being present at the concert. My favorite parts of the film were the 3D previews and the 3D credits, which floated in mid-air.
