After faking an accident, they are taken in by a yuppie divorce lawyer (Kelly Lynch) who doesnt understand the importance of Feelings. EW
3.8
Curly Sue is a cornball, soupy, syrupy, sentimental exercise in audience manipulation, but thats the good news, because this is a movie that works. Rogerebert
2.5
This, however, is the heart of what I dont understand about Curly Sue (or Home Alone or virtually any of Hughes recent movies).
1.0
Reprehensible from start to finish, and utterly manipulative and mindless to boot. E Film Critic
2.5
A disappointingly sentimental and shallow film from John Hughes about the homeless Emanuellevy
2.5
Its the first film in which Hughes flat out sentimentalizes being rich moreover, selling out. Film Freak Central
2.5
The film has a desperately cutesy pie charm that drips with flop sweat. Antagony & Ecstasy
2.5
Any similarity between Curly Sue and Shirley Temple is practically intentional. Movie Metropolis
0.5
Everyone who has to do with it particularly John Hughes, the writer, director and producer of it should be ashamed. Archive Spectator
