HM V1 Rock Star Life [DVD]

Can't actually review this yet since it is on pre-order but I can say that we enjoy the show. I am the mom, and I find the show is entertaining, one of the best on Disney Channel. Nothing objectionable ever, and the actors are well cast and work wonderfully together. We just saw Miley Cyrus as Hannah Montana in concert with Everlife and the Cheetah Girls, it was the last show for Hannah Montana to be on this tour, and Miley's show was excellent. She is amazingly professional at such a young age, and has a lot of charisma and talent. We will be purchasing this DVD, and we already have the soundtrack with bonus video dvd on pre-order.YES at 91 minutes it IS POSSIBLE to have up to 4 episodes and still have room for a short interview and bonus footage. I know because I studied TV production though I chose to work in another field after college. The Hannah Montana episodes are shown during a 1/2 hour time slot, however when you deduct the opening and closing scenes and all of the commercials, you are left with about 18 minutes of actual show. Even if there are 3 episodes plus the bonus episode, that is only 72 minutes, leaving almost 20 minutes for the interview and bonus footage.

My kids watched this and I walked by and thought, wow, guitars! Mix this with Malibu, school stuff, a double-life teenage girl daughter of Billy Ray and its really quite good. Her songs aren't the over-produced things you normally hear from these TV artists, but some just good music. The combonation rock n roll family life is well written and Emily Osment is a perfect compliment to Miley and family. You can watch this with your children and not have to close your eyes or your ears, Great Stuff!!

You wouldn't think it, but if you watch more than two episodes of this show you will get hooked. It's a little cheesy, and the plots are, of course, very predictable, but still there's something about that draws you in and hooks you. Miley Cyrus plays Miley Stewart an average 14-year old girl with a huge secret. She's international pop sensation Hannah Montana. With the aid of her friends Lily and Oliver and her family (With dad played by actual father, singer Billy Ray Cyrus,) she lives two lives trying to keep her secret from the world. This show is witty, cute, and has a lot of heart. The father-daughter tender moment scenes are endearing and feal more real than most (gee I wonder why?) I give this show five-stars.

The DVD case is damaged it has dents in it and it has a small rip in the back of it

Now I can review the DVD, having bought it and finally seeing the pilot.These episodes basically set up the series' format, and what I STILL like about HM is the on-screen chemistries between Miley and Lilly (Miley Cyrus and Emily Osment); you really get the feeling that these two are very good friends (something that is seriously lacking in a lot of shows). Also, Billy Ray Cyrus pokes fun at his own real-life career, which I find very funny.Then there's the male best friend rounding out the trio (Oliver; played by Mitchel Musso), and the annoying (in this case, older) brother Jackson (expertly played by Jason Earles). And that's where, in spite of being done better, the sense of deja vu begins. It's like Disney is forever trying to find the next Hilary Duff (hence Hannah's blonde wig). This series could be a taste of what a third season post-Lizzie McGuire the Movie could be like. It's not a bad thing, but when you see and recognize elements from Lizzie McGuire and That's So Raven (including dialogue), then it's time for a rethink. I really like this show in spite of being mostly a kids' show, but I'd love to see more development than a rehash of 'Disney's Greatest Hits'. The music video and audition tapes are both neat. I've since bought both this DVD and Pop Star Profile, and STILL recommend them in spite of this, because it is a good show in spite of minor shortcomings. Since I wrote the original review, there have been improvements in the series.

When I got the Hannah Montana dvd for my birthday, my face lit up. It was what I always wanted. I was so glad that you had the Hannnah Monttana DVD for sale. After I opened up all the other presents, I put on the Hannnah Montana DVD to watch. It had 6 shows on it, including a never before seen episode. I could not believe my eyes. I thought it only had one or two epsoides on it. Now my older brother and I watch it almost every day. My mom kind of gets a little nuts because I watch it a little bit too much. I am nuts about the dvd. I would never had seen all of the episodes if it wasn't for Amazon.com. I would never had got the DVD early if it weren't for you. Thank you so so much.

This item came in without a DVD inside the box. My autistic son was not happy about that when he opened it on his Birthday!I don't need to buy and empty DVD case.

Good movie, bought it for my littele sister. You will see Miley when she was still a Miley!
