      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      As shamelessly manipulative as any Nicholas Sparks production, The Last Song is done no favors by its miscast and overmatched star, Miley Cyrus.

      Yash B I knew something was wrong in the final act of "The Last Song" when the emotional moments were happening, and I really didn't feel much. The movie has some hokey writing and cheesy moments, but the issue is that the story just isn't that good. I think there are better romance movies, even the ones on the sappier side. I think Miley Cyrus has become an outstanding musician over time, but this movie was sort of a sign that her acting career might not really take off down the line. The movie has a sweetness and innocence that can be likable, but I still found myself just too bored and uninvested to truly get into this one. Overall, it is a movie that feels like it has the potential to be more, but mostly plays it safe and stays surface-level, never really engaging the audience on a deeper level. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/24 Full Review R C Miley Cyrus as the lead in a Nicholas Sparks movie gives The Last Song the star power it didn't need. We've seen her play a bratty teenager who can sing before. However, she didn't do half bad, which is not the compliment an actor would want to hear. The emotional beats didn't deliver, but the overall movie experience wasn't too bad if you aren't looking for too much. And why do I wonder how it would have turned out with Hayden Panatierre as the lead? She's 3 years older than Miley in real life, but I believe she looked like a teenager at the time. Perhaps someone like Hayden would not have left me so underwhelmed. And not sure how this review became so long. Onto the next! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I’m not a big fan of Miley Cyrus but I have to say she did a outstanding job in this. really enjoyed it thank you will to James Welch, Henderson, Arkansas April 4, 2023. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/05/23 Full Review Shaun H Awful movie, plastic characters and acting. I question what other movies people who gave this 5 stars have seen. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Alfredo F an emotional and romantic coming-of-age story, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth make a couple with great chemistry and the credits song "When I Look At You" is to cry a great adaptation of writer Nichoals Sparks Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Hatidzhe T It's a classic teenage drama and it's amazing Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Nell Minow Movie Mom Rated: C Feb 18, 2012 Full Review Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly Here's the revelation: Miley Cyrus is a really interesting movie star in the making, with an intriguing echo-of-foghorn speaking voice, and a scuffed-up tomboyish physicality (in the Kristen Stewart mode) that sets her apart from daintier girls. Rated: B Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) As Nicholas Sparks adaptations go, this one's both endearingly join-the-dots and surprisingly un-crass. Rated: 2/5 May 6, 2010 Full Review Rene Jordan El Nuevo Herald (Miami) Might provoke the urgent need for three handkerchiefs or half a box of Kleenex. [Full review in Spanish] Aug 4, 2022 Full Review Stuart McGurk NME (New Musical Express) Miley Cyrus moves into a "dramatic" role - but acts like she's been created using CGI. Rated: 1/5 May 19, 2021 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Saved from failure largely through the efforts of Kinnear. Rated: 1.0/4.0 Sep 13, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
