The film is based on Noel Steatfield's novel with the same title. Its story begins in the 1910s when a whimsical paleontologist is presented with an orphaned great-granddaughter whom he is more or less forced to adopt. Years pass by and he returns from each and every of his lengthy journeys with an orphaned baby girl. This is how the family of Sylvia (the great-granddaughter), her Nanny and the three girls, Pauline, Petrova and Posy is put together. The film focuses on the three girls' training in a dance acadamy and their struggles to reach their dreams. I guess it's the dance acadamy part where the somewhat misleading title comes from.
This film was rather easy to watch. It didn't have any serious message to convey or anything but I quite liked it. It was entertaining and cute. A good choice if you just want to have a little bit of distraction. It didn't really had roles that required amazing acting talents. Luckily for Emma Watson. But I will leave evaluating the actors' performances at that.
