Private eye Molly Morris (Miley Cyrus) specialises in photographing philandering husbands cheating on their wives in the Dallas area, helped by her dad Sam (Mike O'Malley), an ex-cop who now dabbles in surveillance work. Meanwhile, for the rest of us the film is a long slog which manages to make 94 minutes feel more like 194 minutes. One presumes that the target audience is teenaged girls who don't care much for high quality cinema they will probably find something to enjoy in the film. The film is a strictly formulaic Miss Congeniality/Kindergarten Cop clone, in which the young sleuth is recruited by the FBI for an undercover job in a posh 'n' bitchy sorority house in New Orleans. In her latest attempt to graduate from kids TV starlet to serious Hollywood actress, Miley Cyrus takes on the unlikely role of an all-action private investigator. Forget about Hannah Montana and try not to let the overshadowing stereotype that Miley Cyrus is stuck in overcast your opinion when you watch this movie, because it is actually a great fun ride for people of all ages. But Jeremy Piven and Mike O'Malley also helped the movie along quite nicely. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, because it was fun, and it was well put together, and the story was interesting enough, despite it being a late teenage comedy. That being said, then you shouldn't be intimidated or scared away from watching "So Undercover" just because Miley Cyrus is in it, because the girl can actually act, and she does have a certain charm to her as well. And I didn't realize that she was in this movie before I started to question whether or not it was actually her whilst she was doing the stunts on the hotel balconies. Also the name of the movie is horrible and somebody should be fired for it.Īlright, well I must say that I can't claim to be overly familiar with Miley Cyrus's former work, aside from the occasional zapping across her Hannah Montana stuff on TV, and knowing that she sings as well. It would be like Veronica Mars goes to college. If they wanted to do a realistic movie, that would be interesting to see. It's like somebody thought that Hannah Montana needs to be filmed by Paul Greengrass. The styles are all wrong and conflict with each other. It's definitely not serious but the camera sometimes use shaky hand held style. It's not silly enough to be Disney teen frivolity. This feels like there are two movies trying to come out on top. The girls are either Bs or really stupid. That could actually work but it goes kind of silly. The grimy Molly has to infiltrate a sorority. Sam continues to gamble and Molly needs money to pay off the debt. Alex is the daughter of an important witness and she may be holding some evidence. FBI Agent Armon Ranford (Jeremy Piven) is working a case against the Georgian mafia and he needs her to watch over college girl Alex Patrone (Lauren McKnight). Molly Morris (Miley Cyrus) is a private investigator working with her dad ex-Dallas cop Sam (Mike O'Malley).
