    ThiefHott Too much of everything
    Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
    TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
    Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
    smithjolie I like Lizzie McGuire. I think overall it's an easygoing show to watch. What I don't really like is Lizzie herself. I feel like she's way too sassy, rude, and never listens to Gordo, even though half the time he's the only one that has any sense.I also hate how Lizzie treats her parents. Sure, they're goofy and weird, but that's what's lovable about them. And they only want to help Lizzie, but she always pushes them away and yells at them when she doesn't get her way. And they seem to condone that. And plus, the show tries to portray Lizzie as this down to earth, sweet 13/14 yr old girl who goes through typical teen problems. But her problems don't involve getting a pimple or someone dying- it usually involves her whining about how the dumbest boy in school won't talk to her.
    Kobe Busia Lizzie McGuire is 1 of those classic Disney Channel shows that I truly adore. I've started re- watching the episodes on Youtube again, and to this day, I still enjoy it, and the movie, which went to theaters, proved to be a really enjoyable film, as well as a perfect farewell to these characters. I love all the characters, and almost every episode, the 3 best friends, Lizzie, Gordo, and Miranda really care about each other, and they have an incredibly strong friendship, Lizzie's brother Matt is always doing something interesting and funny, whether it's getting in trouble with his parents, or some kind of fun or mischief with his silent best friend Lanny, who strangely enough, only Matt can understand, Ethan Craft may be a complete airhead, but he's a cool guy in general, and gives some good advice on rare occasions, Kate Sanders maybe a snobby, popular cheerleader, but it's clear that she has a good heart and can be kind to Lizzie and her friends when it counts, and Larry Tudgeman may be the geekiest kid around, but he's funny, smart, and on rare occasions, he shows that he can be cool and sophisticated.Character development is a really strong point in the show, because throughout the show, the writers always seemed eager to develop each of the characters in one way or another. This ranges in a wide variety from building up on Matt and Lizzie's sibling relationship, Lizzie and Miranda's friendship, Gordo's personal struggles such as the initiation of becoming a man and having his own Bar Mitzvah, being possessed by that board game known as "Dwarf Lord", going over to High School due to his high level of intelligence, and his feelings for Lizzie, Miranda's diet due to her lack of confidence in regards to her body, (which was triggered by Gordo's comment of, "Oh man, you guys eat a lot"), Larry going out on a date with Lizzie, and being the only kid in the school not getting invited to Miranda's party, and even Lizzie's parents learn things about themselves, and eventually they become better parents in the process as the show went on. With the exception of Claire, none of the characters in this show are 1-dimensional.The humor is funny and there's usually a good moral at the end of each episode, and there are even a few guest stars that I didn't know were in there such as Dot-Marie Jones, who currently plays Coach Beiste on Glee, I was surprised to see that she was on the show for 5 episodes. I miss this show, it too, just like Even Stevens, should've lasted for more than 3 seasons, because these characters' stories could've been taken so much further, had ABC chosen to pick up the spin-off idea of Lizzie and her friends in High School, that would've been really interesting to see. But, what's done is done, and I'm glad that I even got to experience Lizzie McGuire, which reminds me, when I really got into this show, it was already over and they were showing reruns, but the difference is that unlike Even Stevens, Lizzie McGuire was shown constantly, so I was less likely to miss an opportunity to see that.Now I already mentioned this in my Even Stevens review, but the one negative and frustrating thing about this show is the fact that Lizzie and her friends were in Middle School the whole time, and they should've been in High School, but here's the difference; in Lizzie Mcguire, it was a little bit more convincing in the long-run that they were in Middle School, but still, they should've had the characters in High School.That's all I really have to say about Lizzie McGuire, it was an amazing, funny, and interesting show, I loved it a lot, the characters were so interesting that there wasn't a time where you became bored of them, and it truly was a classic Disney Channel show, I wish we had shows like this one again. 9/10!
    hollowmagnet what a god awful movie boring, not very funny, terrible acting waste of time if your a chikflick lover yes..... but otherwise its terrible sleep the acting is just over the top and unbearable as is Hillary duff the storyline is stupid the directing isn't that great but i suppose with such a dumb script there's not much you can do it was honestly a terrible movie a waste of both time and money it had a very sloppy moral its OK for kids for people who like movies that have some sought of meaning this movie is just horrendous i cant believe i wasted My money on this dumb movie for fans of the Lizzie McGuire show in general its no such letdown i didn't expect ti to be anyway... for those of you who dislike movies such as material girls and step up etc... then this is a complete and utter waste
    flippensweet88 Any comments about this show being terrible are completely unfounded. This, along with "Phil of the Future" is the embodiment of what Disney Channel should be.Each episode is funny and doesn't talk down to kids. It invites you to share in a life lesson but is not forced down your throat. Funny and relatable, it appeals to both kids, teens, and adults.With Hannah Montana and High School Musical, Disney Channel has scraped the bottom of the barrel. Few adults or people over the age of 12 can stomach the garbage. Sure, Disney is rolling in money now, but if they want a future they should rethink their programming choices, and use "Lizzie" as an example.
