Description of Best of Both Worlds Concert: The 3-D Movie: Extended Edition:
The Hannah Montana & Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds live concert was a sold-out sensation everywhere it played, and this concert video is the next best thing to being there for all the fans that couldn't get tickets to attend the concert in person. The movie opens with Miley Cyrus backstage in make-up and hair, warming up with vocal exercises, then cuts to Hannah Montana (her alter ego)'s performance of "Rock Star," and then back in time to four weeks before her performance when concert rehearsals were just beginning. It runs like a backstage special feature for a while, following Hannah Montana through coaching, choreography scenes with Kenny Ortega, and rehearsal sessions. Then it's back to concert footage from opening night in St. Louis and all along the tour, seasoned here and there with some fun looks at the concerts' special effects, quick costume changes, other logistical challenges (Hannah gets dropped during a routine early in the tour), and lots of shots of the enthusiastic, mostly female 'tween audiences. The 3D format gives the audience a nice sense of being there and includes some effective, if somewhat overused shots of the crowd waving, Hannah/Miley reaching out to the audience, and fun stunts like the drummer's twirling stick thrown high in the air and the guitar player's pick being tossed out into the audience. The sound is adequate, but fails to replicate the live concert experience (the plus side is that the audience's ears won't be ringing for hours after the performance). Hannah Montana's performance includes "Rock Star," "Life's What You Make It," "Just Like You," "Nobody's Perfect," and "We Got the Party." The Jonas Brothers perform "When You Look Me In the Eyes" and "Year 3000," and then Miley hits the stage with "Start All Over," "I Got Nerve," "I Miss You" (which Miley wrote in honor of her Granddad's passing), "Going Away," "GNO: Girl's Night Out," and "The Best of Both Worlds." This 3D concert presentation truly is the "best of both worlds," a 3D concert experience with easy availability and minimal expense. Better yet is the message that girls can do anything they want if they put their minds and hearts to it. (Ages 7 and older) --Tami Horiuchi
Best of Both Worlds Concert: The 3-D Movie: Extended Edition Reviews:
Great Movie Concert 
2009-11-19 - I bought this bd for my 5 year old daughter who loves watching hannah montana. She loves it and frankly speaking, I love it too! I like the audio which is very good and the video is clear and crisp. But what I like most are the extras especially the karaoke part.
Movie was EXCELLENT but 3D graphics were HORRIBLE! 
2009-11-17 - Please don't misunderstand, the show itself was outstanding! Buy the 2D version you will love it! Very entertaining, makes you sing along and even want to dance. I would say it's Miley at her best but I've been to two of her concerts on the Wonder World tour and she's definitely giving this concert a run for its money. However, I was SO SO SO dissapointed at the 3D graphics. Nothing appeared to be 3D and trust me I spent an hour trying to convince myself that I was seeing something in 3D. It all appeared blurry even with the glasses on! The one I purchased was the regular DVD not Blu-Ray and I read a review on here that says the Blu-Ray one was excellent. I don't have a Blu-Ray player but I'm tempted to go buy one so that I can experience this concert in true 3D fashion. But again, it's completely worth purchasing the 2D version but you'll be dissapointed if you buy the 3D DVD.
She loved it.....
2009-11-02 - Send to my niece in Florida for her birthday. It got there in plenty of time and she loved it. I saved money, too!
Best of Both Cross-Promotional Marketing Schemes
2009-08-04 - Here we have a great example of highly polished, easily packaged, pre-teen manufactured musical product. "Hey kids, wanna be cool but keep Mommy and Daddy happy? Buy this!" - But there is more to this McMusic than just pedestrian synthetic pop.
The marketers of this product have managed to sell sex to pre-teens, along with the shoes, toys, clothes and CDs. Using a light touch, skimming the surface of seduction, the music and personas of these "pop stars" have been carefully crafted to stir pre-teens into a frenzy. The innuendos in the lyrics combined with the costumes and the stage acts activate deeply buried pre-teen emotions that translate into a fervor of consumerism. "Buy-buy-buy", their little minds scream this message, while their parents think "Its so wholesome and sweet" - nothing could be further from the truth.
Real music stirs the soul and elevates the mind into a higher state. The dervative, artificial sounds and platic visuals of Hannah Montana and the Jonas Bros. do the opposite; turning the pre-teens into purchasing units in a mass marketing grid. This "music" is not just bad, its a corrosive substance that will burn away the souls of your kids and turn them into mindless sheep.
Resist purchasing this emotionless dreck.
review per grand daughter 
2009-07-14 - I know my grand daughter loves Hannah Montana. I had just recently taken her to see the movie, so when I saw this concert very reasonably priced decided to buy it and have it sent to her home. I haven't seen the video myself, but my grand daughter seems to love it. I'm very happy with my purchase.
