Hilary Duff: The Girl Can Rock : 3 of 5
1.13.2005

Even though the title of this DVD is so lame, I still wanted to watch a Hilary concert since I think her music is pretty fun. Unfortunately, I think the title should have been "The Girl Can Lipsync". I tried to watch and listen very carefully to see if she was really singing, and unfortunately every vocal nuance is exactly the same as her album - usually in a live show the band tries a different arrangement or something, but no so here. Also, even though this is supposed to be a single concert, it's definitely combined footage from different shows, since the band's shirts keep changing (the lead guitarist's shirt even changes back and forth in the middle of a solo!). So why does this DVD get a 3 rating? Because I still had fun watching it and singing along - I like Hilary's dimples and watching her throw her hair around, and the bonus material has lots of evidence that she's still a geeky Lizzie McGuire-esque girl, rather than the pouty smug chick with too much mascara that her marketing engine is trying to get across. Watching this concert and seeing Hilary and her gang in the Los Angeles sun gave me those first longings for summer this year, so I'm glad I watched it.
