There is nothing bad that you can say about Rags to Riches if you like singing and dancing children and teenagers. Its a lot like a variety show where the kids dance and sing there way through a variety of songs with changed lyrics to suit their moods. This is pretty light stuff and on an entertainment level it does the job quite well. The main actors in this all seem quite talented, so it seems a pity that none of them really amounted to much more in the film industry. Naturally, if you dont like musicals, you will hate this, but for those that like them, its a pleasant alternative to the 40s and 50s musicals that appear all the time on cable.
