Hannah Montana: The Movie


Hannah Montana: The Movie came out on April 10th, 2009. The movie was produced by It’s a Laugh Productions, Millar Gough Ink, and Walt Disney Pictures. At the Box Office, the movie gained a profit of $79, 566, 871, and it was said that the movie had a budget of $30 million. The film was adapted from the TV series Hannah Montana. The directors of the film, and cast members, like Miley Cyrus and her father, had a goal of creating a realistic atmosphere for the film. By using real sites, instead of sound stages, the film’s budget rose. An incident occurred, that caused some bumps on the road for the film. It was a windy day on June 3, 2008, and a screen flew towards a Ferris wheel, and some extras and others were harmed. Disney decided to make an announcement of the incident, and then continued filming since there were no serious injuries.  Hannah Montana: The Movie, marketed their first trailer on January 15, 2009, with a collaboration of showing the film’s poster online. To get fans more excited, a clip of the movie was shown in December, and New Year’s Eve. Some of the soundtrack from the movies was also released, like “The Climb”, and “Hoedown Throwdown”. Not only did they release sneak peeks, and part of the soundtrack, a video game was created based on the film before the date when the film would be released.  A few months later, the film came out with a DVD, and sold more than $61 million worth in DVDs.

Hannah Montana: The Movie has to be one of my favorite Disney movies of all time. I’m in love with the soundtrack, and the inspirational lyrics. The movie seems so raw, so natural, and it gives off the sense that the audience will be able to relate to some of the situations that come across in the film. It’s a great movie to view with family, showcasing the message that one should always remember where they come from, and never lose that site of reality. I remember getting really excited when I saw sneak peeks of the film because it made me want the release date to approach faster, and I’d be the first one in line to view the movie. I purchased the DVD, and I still watch till this day at least twice a year because I enjoy it that much.

  1. I thought all of your information was really interesting especially the incident that occurred while filming because I never knew that. I like how you included how the poster and trailers played a key role in the marketing of the film. Great work!
