. On the review, Phares complains that the albums have not grown since the commence of the franchise by stating: "Miley Cyrus
was 13 years old when she started performing as Hannah Montana, but by the time Hannah Montana 3 was released, she was nearly 17. That's a pretty big span of time in a teenager's life, but you'd never know it from listening to these songs."

" as "extremely similar" to Cyrus's own "Hoedown Throwdown
" which wasn't received well by critics and others were too "equally cookie-cutter". To Allmusic the nadir of the album is "Just a Girl". She mentioned "the only thing worse than a big star singing about how fame has damaged her is a big child star singing about how fame has damaged her." Overall she said: "Hannah Montana 3 seems to give fans exactly what they want, but the calculation behind this music overwhelms the fun that used to be in it." Warren Truit of About.com
