Nicola Cochran Normally I like kid shows and enjoy childish funny things. But there are multiple annoying things about this movie, but the worst of all is the main character's introduction of herself where she proclaims a passionate stand against good food that looks nice. She very "boldly" refuses to eat the beautiful version of a tomato sandwich prepared by her mother's chef, because it's open face, appears to have some other elements added (probably basil), and because there is a tomato carved to look like a rose on the plate. Instead, she insists on eating a regular sandwich that is just plain sliced tomatoes. The chef responds by saying that she has the food appreciation of a two year old, and the viewer who is perhaps meant to side with her, or somehow identify with her on this, rather tends to agree more with the chef... she does seem to have the appreciation for good food that a two year old has. Actually, some babies have more appropriate willingness to eat what's put in front of them. This character is supposed to be what, like in middle school and she's acting this way? Extremely bratty, ungrateful, immature behavior. Right at the beginning. The quote that she and the nanny say also doesn't contextually make any sense, but is used as a way to make a point against the chef and to make the point that she won't eat his fancy sandwich. Later her father also doesn't want to eat an orange because it's sliced into the shaped of a bird, and so the orange gets thrown away and the father opts for a banana. This is frustrating because it seems to be depicting that the chef is somehow being silly by expecting them to eat food that he's spent time on, when he is just doing his job and doing what he loves, and they are literally throwing food away. Since I grew up in a 3rd world country, I find that somewhat atrocious. These scenes gave me a strong and unshakable sense of the main character being extremely over privileged and spoiled. This made the rest of the show harder to get into, since I wasn't able to identify with the main character at all. Rather than being introduced as a character with moral integrity, who cares about real issues like world hunger, or something like that, or even wanting to make the world a better place for those around her, she is instead introduced as a spoiled brat who protests having to eat anything that looks nice or has flavor complexity.

SnoopyStyle Harriet Welsch the spy (Jennifer Stone) ridicules their chef but loves her nanny Golly (Kristin Booth). She is competing with her nemesis Marion Hawthorne for the official class blog. Marion's simplistic blogs are outshining Harriet's tales of spying on unimportant people. Meanwhile her father is the new producer of the new Spy Teen 2 movie and teen heartthrob Skander. She hates the superficial ridiculous movies but she starts using Skander for her blog. The popularity of Skander rubs off on her blog. When she sees Skander throwing a fit on set, her blog climbs and so does trouble for her father. She goes into full spy mode on Skander and even pretends to be his friend much to Marion's chagrin. Skander is paranoid about being stalked. Harriet is also spying on Golly.The production value is pretty bad. The Toronto for NYC is done very poorly. The acting is OK but it's nothing to write home about. Jennifer Stone has a good amount of pep, but the acting from the other kids fall off pretty quickly. If the movie looks poor, the movie within the movie looks even worst. It's a poor effort even for a Disney TV movie. There are too many annoying characters in silly situations that look ridiculous.

gregsonproductions While I feel the original Harriet the Spy tops this remake. I do think this was an enjoyable made for television movie. Not totally cringe worthy and some good moments for Miss Stone, who I believe is one of the better teen actors today.She keeps her performance real, and while the story is not anything new, it's entertaining and fun for teen/tween girls.Disney seems to be lacking in new and fresh entertainment. I would like to see something original and fresh from the people who work for the mouse in the near future. Bring back some of the original Disney Channel movies that the whole family could enjoy together.My daughters enjoyed this movie and are fans of Miss Stone, so I gave it a five out of ten on their behalf.

bkoganbing The Magic Kingdom always tries to give their young teen players a chance at the spotlight. In the case of Harriet The Spy: Blog Wars the chance comes to Jennifer Stone best known as being the Bohemian sidekick of Selena Gomez in Wizards Of Waverly Place.Jennifer and an all Canadian supporting cast filmed this item in Toronto and Hamilton and the film is about two competing teens for the chance to become the class blogger. Jennifer's a bright and intelligent young lady and her dad Doug Murray is a film producer and she writes well. But her rival Vanessa Morgan is the future prom queen with the popularity to match. Guess who's got the advantage?But Jennifer's not without resources, her dad happens to be producing a film starring the current teen heartthrob Wesley Morgan. Nothing sells a blog like celebrity dirt and for young teenage girls, dirt on an idol is catnip to the feline.Harriet The Spy: Blog Wars will never rate high among the Disney made for television projects, but Jennifer Stone and the cast perform well enough and the predictable story is easy to take. I've the feeling though that Ms. Stone is capable of better.
