Audience Reviews for Three Smart Girls

  • May 07, 2014
    Almost like a female version of a Little Rascals plot, Three Smart Girls is the brainless fodder of its time. Despite the charms of the actresses involved, the plot seems ultimately very silly. Good enough to warrant a sequel however.
    John B Super Reviewer

    Strictly unremarkable story elevated by Deanna and a great supporting cast.
