…not as awful as its straight-to-landfill release in the States might suggest and Cyrus has star quality, admittedly not well applied here…

Movie Talk

To keep up her cover, Miley Cyrus's private eye has to spout nonsense like 'Totes!' and 'Amazeballs!' while pretending to be an empty-headed ditz... when the story finally gets wrapped up, 'Amazeballs' will not be the word that comes to your lips.

It was a totally fine teen movie. It’s definitely not the best script but It is somewhat entertaining, and it does have a few laughs. The main character is probably the worst undercover spy I’ve ever seen and it’s laughable that the other characters didn’t figure it out almost immediately. However, if you can suspend that disbelief, it’s enjoyable enough. Miley Cyrus is definitely not giving her most enthusiastic performance but it’s not NEARLY as bad or uninspired as “Lol.”

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

classic teen drama. I would not rate it so high if it was't for Miley Cyrus. This legend gave us 4 movies and we must cherish them till the end of our days

it was horrible, the worst detective ever, i don't know what's worse the awfully written story, the mediocre acting or the fact that i just lost an hour and a half of my life. disgusting. the main character couldn't be more stupid i'm surprised they didn't discover her in the first five minutes

A very Jackie Chan moment in the first scene. The second scene made my roll my eyes back so far behind my eyes that I wished I passed out so I didn't have to be awake for this movie. The third scene was a WTF you let him do that to you, have you no backbone? At this point I can see what the tone of the movie is like...and it doesn't bode well. Silly situations played out by dumb downed characters. What did I do to deserve watching this...it's clearly for tweens 13 and under, mainly girls as I think guys wouldn't be caught dead watching this. If I were her, I'd let the people her dad owes money to break his legs for not paying. She'll end up working to just pay off her dad's debts for the rest of her life, in fact he's the kind of guy that would prostitute her out just to have pocket change to gamble. Her character's an idiot, pretty but dumb.

So Undercover isn't Mily Cyrus's best thing ever. In the words of Rotten Tomatoes "Meh it passed the time"
