Curly Sue (Alisan Porter) might look like a cherub, but this street urchin has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. She and her streetwise guardian, Bill Dancer (Jim Belushi), can scam with the best of them. When they pull a fast one on Grey Ellison (Kelly Lynch), a high-powered corporate attorney, they find themselves living in her luxurious apartment and taking advantage of her generosity, enjoying fine food and new clothes. Grey’s snobby boyfriend thinks that she has lost her mind in allowing these strangers access to her home, but Grey sees the good in Bill and Curly Sue and realizes that they bring out a part of her that she had lost.

A warm glow

Nagi from from Wimbledon, 23rd March, 2008

I first watched this film when I was young; still to this day, the film brings a nice warm feeling inside. With a combination of comedy and a sense of cuteness thrown in the mix, this film will bring a smile to everyone young or old and make you feel that family will be there for you in your time of need. Highly recommended on my behalf.

Curly sue

Cornetto from , 29th April, 2007

My kids loved this film, Dad and daughter are homeless and broke their scams are aimed not at turning a profit, but at getting enough to eat. When they scam the rich and beautiful Grey Ellison into believing she backed her Mercedes into Bill, they're only hoping for a free meal. But Grey is touched, and over the objections of her snotty fiance, insist on putting the two up for the night. Plenty of humoura nd must to watch.

wet sunday afternoon

A Customer from Wolverhampton, 9th February, 2006

This is a sweet family film ideal for a wet sunday afternoon when everyone has the blahs and you just want to share the box of pringles,pass round the giant buttons. One of those which makes you think the world really can't be as bad as all that
