Entertainment Weekly
Let's face it: Lizzie McGuire (Hilary Duff) is just too darn polished to be a junior-high underdog, even by the standards of her 'luxe suburban environs. - 75
Premiere
Duff is a charming heroine who carries the movie cheerfully, if not gracefully--the pratfalls come early and often. - 75
Christian Science Monitor
The action is light and lively all the way, poking inventive fun at everything from nosy little brothers to clueless hotel managers and romantic Romans who aren't as glamorous as they claim to be. - 63
Miami Herald
The success of The Lizzie McGuire Movie, in which Duff acts and sings while playing both her beloved character and an Italian look-alike, is probably a slam dunk. That doesn't mean it's a great movie. - 60
Variety
Just two weeks after successfully targeting boys with "Holes," Disney is giving girls something they want with this mild, quasi-romantic romp. - 60
Dallas Observer
The movie lacks the adult humor of such kid flicks as "Shrek" and "Lilo & Stitch," but the target audience at an advance screening was shrieking with joy throughout. - 60
Chicago Reader
Director Jim Fall smoothly paces the action while staying true to the girlie thrills (luxury hotels, scenic jaunts, a fashion makeover), delivering an empty-headed but enjoyable romp. - 50
New York Post
Lizzie McGuire's "Movie" doesn't try to be anything more than a superficial escapist fantasy for fans of the show.
