Peter Chelsom, who last directed the so-so "Hannah Montana: The Movie," will be heading to Las Vegas for his next directing gig "Last Vegas," a comedy for CBS Films. Yeah, it kind of sounds like a "The Hanover" type of movie.

Written by Dan Fogelman, the film follows four semi-retired baby boomers who plan to visit Las Vegas when one of them, a lawyer in his 60s, decides to get married. Who know what those guys will get themselves into.

'Hannah Montana: The Movie' web reviews

DateFriday, April 10, 2009 at 11:48AM | By AuthorFranck Tabouring

Hannah Montana invades the big screen in Peter Chelsom's "Hannah Montana: The Movie," and this time Miley Stewart returns to her hometown to rediscover herself. Miley Cyrus and Billy Ray Cyrus star, and here's what the Web's critics think:

• Cinematical's Nick Schager: "Director Chelsom dutifully pushes tween girl buttons at every turn – some rainbow imagery here, a song about butterflies there – and fans will undoubtedly allow themselves to be manipulated by such maneuvers."

• Katey Rich at Cinema Blend: "Miley Cyrus is growing up fast, along with her diehard fans, and in many ways seems ready to leave behind the cartoony world of Hannah Montana. She spends the movie vacillating between goofy girl and self-possessed young lady, and other girls going through the same transition will hopefully feel a pang of recognition."

• Fred Topel at Canmag: "'Hannah Montana: The Movie' is harmless. It’s contagiously happy so even if you see right through it, which you can, it’s not worth it."
