The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I loved the part where Megan hits one of the thug's head with the fire extinguisher! It was so funny and I love her character! If I could, I would totally switch places with her for a day, or maybe even for a week, month, or year. I don't get why Megan would want to take that money because it's they stuff that the thugs printed illegally. If I were Josh I wouldn't have taken that G-O back from the guys because that's what got them in trouble but then, was most of the movie and stuff so I understand why they had Josh do that. I love Drake's song Hollywood Girl! It is so awesome and Drake is so cute!I've never noticed that Josh had one earring in the left ear. Has it always been there.

I think that the Drake And Josh Go Hollywood movie was a great movie. This is my own opinion so please don't take this personal. The cast are really great, the speak clear, and load and that is very important. I am 15 years old, from what I have learned in school is that actors should use good acting habits. And that bad habits are not aloud. Why I like this movie is because the cast are really great like I kind of said up above. I hope you all liked the movie too. Please if you get time watch the movie, and just do this for the actors they take there time to work on it and make it perfect. Thank you to every body who took there time to read what I wrote, and thank you to the perfect staff for all they do. Have a great summer.

I'm only giving this a five because I like the talents of Drake Bell and Josh Peck. All of the main actors involved were more talented than the lame (thanks Dan Schneider) teleplay.I liked the beginning scenes in the house and Drake playing at the old folks home (the apple sauce wanting senior citizen was about the funniest part of the whole movie) because it seemed the most realistic. Well, I suppose no retirement home would accept a rock and roll band as the talent. I also liked the scene in the car on the way to the airport. Drake, Josh and Miranda Cosgrove (who plays Megan Parker) really act like they could be siblings.Some misguides: Walter (Jonathan Goldstein) didn't know the Titanic was a real ship? Gee, no wonder he's just a weatherman. Drake and Josh trying to go past security. What one of the previous posters said about the Presidential Suite that Megan was staying in--even if Mrs. Nichols (the always underused Nancy Sullivan) had a credit card with a sky high limit there's no way Megan could stay at that hotel without parent notification first. The criminals weren't all that tough. Geez, even in The Beatles' "Help!" Victor Spinetti's character pulled a gun out on the lads. Megan being able to take the money from the currency machine after she turned on the fans (and the only people who noticed her were her brothers). There's so many errors, that you get the general idea. It seems that Dan Schneider was just putting out a product and characterization went out the window. I can't tell you how many times us fans of the show sit and analyze things to death that the powers that be could care less about because it's "Only a Nickelodeon show."It was also nice seeing Drake sing one of the songs from his album "Telegraph" called "Hollywood Girl". Ironic that Drake Parker gets better publicity for Drake Bell songs than the real Drake Bell. Also a minor gripe that a record deal wouldn't come that fast and he never would have been offered the chance to be on "TRL" as an unsigned artist in the first place.There's some funny/cute interaction between the principal players and Drake's real life music gets some TV exposure, but the movie just falls flat. It could've been a million times better.During one of the trailers the voice over says "their first movie"...if there should be a second, I hope it is not as terrible as this outing was.And calling it a movie is misleading because if you take out the commercial breaks it is only like an hour and six minutes long.It's a shame that some of the better fan fiction writers out there respect the characters better than Dan Schneider the man who created the show."you're no Wayne Newton".7/10

Normally, I am a big fan of Drake & Josh. I was excited about watching them for a whole hour and a half, but this movie was just extremely bland. It moved very slow and was not as funny as the television episodes. Josh's character did not do as many "Josh-isms" as he does in the show, and the humor was not the same. And when I was a junior in high school, my parents would have never left me at home for 10 days with me and just a sibling. And in the beginning when the parents leave, and the boys have to drop Megan off at the airport, the time reads at night, but it is daylight outside, which was an extremely careless error. Overall, I was looking forward to watching this movie, but I was disappointed.
