Plot Summary
Chicago. Another town, another innocent scam for vagabond Bill Dancer (Jim Belushi of K-9 and Red Heat) and the curly-topped orphan he's cared for since infancy. But this time, Bill hits the jackpot: his newest con whisks them both from the poorhouse to the penthouse with lots of laughs along the way. Nine-year-old Alisan Porter (Parenthood, Stella) teams with Belushi, taking the title role in John Hughes' comedy that charmed moviegoers from coast to coast. Kelly Lynch (Road House, Drugstore Cowboy) joins the heartwarming fun as an attorney who falls for their scheme and takes them home. It's a situation that seems too good to be true. And it turns topsy-turvy when Lynch's jealous boyfriend intervenes. Reviewer Pat Collins of WWOR-TV pronounced Curly Sue "the feel-good comedy of the season." But with Hughes' wisecracking wit and tender touch, it's really a prize entertainment for any season.

I LOVE this movie
i strongly disagree with the person who said its not for people 12 and under. this movie has been my favorite since i was... probably 8. its amazing and you will learn a lot from it. its SO good. please check it out!!! P.S. to the person who is trying to say not to listen to me: this movie is for ALL ages. kids should be exposed to what is actually happening in the world. this movie is about a homeless girl living with a man who took her in and cares about her. and its NOT that sexual. i can understand how your saying it is because your reviews are all of miley cyrus, the jonas brothers, and icarly. and by the way, my reviews consist of my favorite movies and music. they are all my favorite. so what!
Great Family Movie!
I really liked this one. I saw it in the theaters when it came out. A must see.
random movie, ended up LOVING it!
I ran into a free rental with this flick and said "well, what the heck" - I had nothing better to watch that day.
Turn it on... and for nearly 2 hours I've fallen completely in love with little Sue!!!
It was so worth it to watch this movie, a true fairy tale and heartwarmer- you'll love it too. Perfect rainy day, girl's night in, Daddy/Daughter movie!!
