A Definitive Ranking of Every Miley Cyrus Movie
A definitive ranking of every Miley Cyrus movie.
Miley Cyrus, woman who once came in like a wrecking ball, is one of the biggest pop stars in the world—but let's not forget that she got her start onscreen as an actress. These days Miley rarely acts, but we're looking back at her filmography and ranking them while we're at it. Because why not? Please note, this ranking is from worst to best.
1. 'So Undercover'
This movie—which stars Miley as a college student/private eye/FBI recruit—boasts a 6% on Rotten Tomatoes. The reviews might be more entertaining than the movie itself.
2. 'LOL'
This coming of age film is almost as good as you'd expect a movie named after AIM shorthand to be. Almost.
3. 'Big Fish'
Did you forget that Miley was in 2003's Big Fish? Then you're not alone. Miley appeared as eight-year-old Ruthie.
4. 'Hannah Montana: The Movie'
In the mood for lots of camp and nostalgia? Hannah Montana: The Movie has both. It also has "The Climb," a song that's probably better than the film it appears in.
5. 'Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2'
It says a lot about Miley's filmography that her uncredited, post-credit, voice-over scene in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 ranks this high on the list—but it does.
6. 'Bolt'
This underrated animated feature gets lost in the post-Renaissance, pre-Frozen Disney canon, but it's actually a lot of fun and Miley has a great knack for voice-over.

7. 'The Last Song'
This is the one—the movie that brought Miley and her fiancé, Liam Hemsworth, together. The Nicholas Sparks' romance is very Nicholas Sparks-y and, if you like that sort of thing, you'll love it. But the points it gets for sparking a true love story IRL are off the charts.
