I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Blistering performances.

A movie that does it all right. Suitable for the entire family, about a princess from a made-up country, non-offensive for any other existing nation, emphasizing the value of loyalty and friendship between girls/women, perfectly cast with the lovable Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato), the mean girl is not a blonde - like in pretty much any other teenager movie - an overly strained cliché and not necessarily true at all. All in all perfect non-offensive entertainment with heart and fun, a good message and even a bit action - way to go. I would give it 10 stars, but I have to stay true to my principles and since I usually take away stars for a lack of creativity (and since this movie is entertaining and wonderful but does not have the most original plot) and since there are movies who deserve 10 stars even more, well-meant 9 stars.

Witness Protection Program is the first Disney film I watched for 2009. Like many other Disney films, this is educational, entertaining, albeit highly predictable. No points in figuring out the ending, but it's still nice to watch the entire film, to see how the film progress.I am not giving any plots away, because doing that, then you wouldn't have to watch the film altogether.The film is educational. It deals about father-daughter relationship, about growing up, and about how perception makes people treat others differently.Teens, especially are quick to judge a person simply based on how, say, a person dresses, or how a person talks. Wear a thick glasses people may think that he/she is geeky/nerd. Have a stud in the nose, and one quickly judge that he/she is a cousin/niece of the cow family.But it is not that simple. It is not clear cut, black-and-white thing, after all. No one can judge a person without knowing the other person first.And this film deals with exactly just that. About how a princess is immediately perceived as being shallow, and does not know how to do chores. It teaches us that it doesn't matter who we are, what color our skin are, what language we speak, what matters is what's inside.Enough typing. Bring your pre-teens to watch this film, and impart onto them that they should not judge quickly their friends, to take the time to know others better before making their judgment.Should have given this film an 8, but I think it deserves only a 7 because of the highly predictable ending.

Adults be warned: if you don't have kids, or if you don't enjoy yourself when they do, then you need not watch this movie. If you want to feel young again, go watch Star Trek or something.This is Disney in its lightest form, without pain, just some bullying at most. This goes for the school environment as well as for the international political environment. Sure, Mr. Evil himself is about as scary as the lion Alex in Madagascar. He did a good job though, learning from cartoon characters, which I'm sure is a Disney trademark.Also, don't focus on the international part. I speak both French and Spanish, and it hurts me to see them massacred so much. On the other hand, it makes me think I'd make excellent royalty. Apart from the caring part, that is.The acting is not as bad as described by others. Actually, everybody seems to be having a good time, hoping it wears off to the audience. It works, sometimes. I liked the camera-work, the attention paid to dressing details, the displays of dignity and style. Also, when I said that it was a light movie, I also meant that there's no scenes at night. Vampires abstain.Nah, it's not like this movie is advisory entertainment, but when they throw all these kid musicals on your plate, it's nice to have something else for dinner. But, again, be in the right mood, or with the right (very young) people.

Predictable I mean she is in a new town where she is unpopular then their a competition where their is someone else who also wants it too. The only twisted part they had was the princess being from another country but other than that it is basically like every other movie. The main plot of the movie has been re-done in plenty Disney movies but they did it in a different version. I think the only reasons why people would be excited to watch this movie is because it has Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato they would probably like to enjoy watching their teen stars on TV. But the plot is just plainly predictable. When the two evil girls the blond one reads that magazine it was obvious that it had to be Rosalie in it. That was mostly one of the most predictable things. The movie is basically about one wanting more power over the other but competition strikes on them that is basically how all movies go.
