TERRIFIC!I FIRST SAW IT WITH MY FRIEND,AND WE BOTH LOVED IT!HILARY DUFF IS GREAT PLAYING LIZZIE!I LIKED THE SONG"WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF"AND I`M A BOY!!!!BUT I KINDAVE COULDENT HELP IT!!!THE TRAILER MADE IT LOOK SO GOOD!!!I RECCOMEND THIS MOVIE FOR EVERYBODY!

I think that this is the most amazing film that i ever seen

I've Got This Movie Last December, And It's Great. Hilary Duff Is So Cool, I Also Have The Hilary Duff CD "Metamorphosis". My Sisters Liked This One. It's About Lizzie McGuire Going To Rome With Her Friends. The Most Part I Liked About Is Lizzie Sings "What Dreams Are Made Of", I Also Liked The Song "The Tide Is High". I Would Like To Bring This DVD With Me To The Girls' House And Watch It With Them. The Girls Would Probably Liked It.

God, I'm actually starting to like these kinda films! Along with Freaky Friday, and this, starring two up-and-coming actresses, Hilary Duff & Lindsay Lohan. Both evoke jealousy, as they're so pretty, with clear skin, and make all the guys go weak at the knees. If only life was this simple!

Hilary Duff still isn't well-known in the UK, despite releasing a single that I can't even remember the name of - it didn't really set the charts alight. In fact, she never got to perform on any of the major music TV shows here. And the Lizzie McGuire TV show hasn't really appeared here either, although I did see a tiny clip of it today when I was flicking channels. So to say she hasn't made much of an impact here, is an understatement. So what better way to make an impact, than release a movie? Which is what she does!

The movie has all the major characters from the TV series, so instantly you're lost, as the characters are so well-known in America, they don't bother to think about introductions, for the people who haven't seen the TV show. The only person who's really identifiable as being famous is Hilary Duff, but that's only because of her teen romance with Aaron Carter (younger brother of Nick, Backstreet Boys) a few years ago.

The only other 'major' star in this is Alex Borstein (Miss Ungermeyer), who I had quite a bit of trouble placing. She hasn't really starred in that much, having bit parts in Friends and Coyote Ugly. So if you think you recognise her, you'll have to rack what little brains you have to realise who she is. I'll give you a clue - you know her voice better than you probably know her face! And you'll probably recognise her name more, due to seeing it in credits. She's only the voice(s) for Lois Griffin/Loretta/Tricia Takanawa/Barbara Pewterschmidt, to name but a few from Family Guy! Which I thought was pretty cool!

What was best about this movie? The little alter-ego Lizzie cartoon interstitials, which are so funny! They're confusing to begin with, as they're probably a prominent part in the TV series.

In this Hilary plays two people - Lizzie, and Isabella. Who are both exactly the same, except one is blonde, and one is brunette. When you see Isabella at the start of the movie, she doesn't look a thing like Hilary Duff, but that kinda changes towards the end.

As far as I can tell, this was basically the swan-song for the TV series, which has since ended, and all the film is really doing is pushing Hilary as a singer. For a singer, she's OK, but not really anything special. She's blonde, she's pretty, she's American, she has clear skin, how many other singers do we know like that? So whereas she has an OK voice, she has to be a bit more unique, and try and get away from the Disney sweet as sugar image she has at the moment.

This is a good film, to just sit and watch, and relax. Forget about all the stresses and strains of life. And have a good old moan about the fact that you can totally tell Hilary Duff is 'pasted' (for want of a better word) onto the Colosseum backdrop/starry sky.

Based on the TV show that Mcguire had, I was expecting a lot more from this movie. It was very unrealistic and didn't really display the charm that Mcguire brought to her TV series. It was a sweet movie, but really lacked the interest and excitement I expected.

But Hilary Duff can SERIOUSLY not act. And the bad part is, this is a pretty decent plot for a TV show spin-off. Completely unrealistic, but still decent.

It's about a girl named Lizzie (Duff) who goes on a class trip to Rome. Her best friend, David Gordon (Gordo, as a nickname) goes with her, along with most of the kids in her grade. When in Rome, she meets a famous Italian singing star, Paolo, and, surprise, surprise, she looks EXACTLY like Paolo's counterpart singer, Isabella (Duff, again).

Lizzie gets a major crush on Paolo (again, surprise, surprise) and she agrees to impersonate Isabella in the upcoming music awards show. (Isabella, Paolo said, lip-synched and left the group because Paolo wanted to 'develop as an artist' and she didn't.)

Well, in the end, everything is sorted out. Gordo finds Isabella and learns that SHE was the one that wanted to develop her music career. Paolo is exposed as having the terrible voice that he does, and Gordo and Lizzie have their first kiss.

As I said, Duff's acting isn't up to par, and she's supposed to be the one that carries the whole movie. The plot is unrealistic, and at times the actors and actresses don't seem to have chemistry together.

Cute movie for little kids. Teenagers, maybe. But for me... I'd rather see something a bit deeper.

this is one of the best films in the world.when i watched it i thought it would be a normal dvd but i was wrong.this film is about a normal teenage girl going to rome for a school trip with her mates and becoming famous!

Like everything else in the world, it's not the thing that matters, its the USE of the thing. In this case, this is a movie for pre-teen girls who are in that wonderful, magical, antyhing can happen, I am so powerful stage of life - before the cynicics crush them and tell them to get realistic and give up their dreams. For those girls - this movie is a perfect match and some good wholesome entertainment. For a different audience, it's probably not a good match. For those reviewers who wrote about how stupid and unrealisitic this movie is; a) it must have something going on becuase you were hooked enough to watch it; b) it's a MOVIE, it's supposed to be a fantasy and an escape; and c) get a life and find something productive to do instead of running around bashing everyone else's work. The only reason you are so compelled to diss Miss Duff is because you are jealous - she is a cute, happy, successful young lady who looks like she is having a heck of a lot of fun in her life. This was a great movie - great fun with a good message. Not an emmy winner for sure, but who cares - that was never the point anyway. I watched this movie with my 8 year old daughter and we both loved it!

m tomorrow! This is another teen-flick movie of mushy romance and garbage. Who would actually believe that someone would go to the movie awards when they LOOK like someone else? God! This is brainless gentle "comedy" that fails to impress me. It will appeal to Mary-Kate and Ashley fans.
PS: she has a disastrous voice, although shes really pretty

This movie was funny and fun even for a grown up like me. I just love Lizzie (especially her little cartoon thoughts - wish I'd come up with that). It was enjoyable so I know most kids would like it. My favorite character besides Lizzie is Gordo. He is so devoted!

There is a kiss in this movie that just knocks my socks off and it will knock yours off too.
