What to Know

Critics Consensus

John Huston proves an odd choice to direct, miring Annie in a sluggish, stagebound mess of an adaptation, but the kids are cute and the songs are memorable.

Sheila Benson Los Angeles Times A kid with Annie's moxie deserves more. Or perhaps less. What she deserves is an atmosphere of innocence, warmth and inventiveness, to let the film generate the joy that must have enveloped theater audiences over the past five years. Apr 15, 2022 Full Review Jack Mathews Detroit Free Press Aileen Quinn is a delightful Annie, with good feet, an infectious smile, and a perfectly pitched voice. It's not her fault she is used mainly as a performing prop, as is the spectacularly graceful Ann Reinking, playing Warbucks' secretary. Rated: 4/10 Apr 15, 2022 Full Review Michael Blowen Boston Globe Producer Ray Stark and director John Huston have relied more on the rigid style of the comic strip than on the high-steppin' pizazz' of the Broadway show. They've transformed a big-hearted hit that won seven Tonys into a small-minded musical. Apr 15, 2022 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Dreadful. A clockwork lemon that’s bloated, charmless, and artificial. Rated: 1/4 Nov 23, 2024 Full Review Sean Burns Crooked Marquee You can always feel the heavy exertion behind the spectacle, which I suppose is somehow fitting for a hard knock life. Aug 25, 2024 Full Review George Anderson Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Albert Finney makes a surprisingly good Warbucks. Bellowing orders like a true self-made tycoon, he exhibits an intelligent awareness of the demands of his role, never overdoing his effects. Apr 15, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Brent A 10% rating ... Not a big musical fan, but this has some memorable songs. The storyline was awful and the acting was annoyingly poor. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/27/25 Full Review Amos H Loved this movie! If you don't love this movie you are an idiot. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/21/25 Full Review Audience Member honestly i havent watched this version in so long so i dont remeber anything but its def still pretty good Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/08/25 Full Review CodyZamboni Z Fun, charming old school musical, Bright funny cast, Clever energetic musical numbers, Colorful production design, Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/24/25 Full Review N P "Annie" is a fun, family movie extravaganza with quintessential songs, dance numbers, superb cast, brilliant costuming, makeup and set dressing. Set during the Great Depression in New York City, it perfectly replicates the era whilst paying immense homage to the musical film classics of the early 1900s. This film is filled with heart, innocence and youth, and it was simply a grand ol' time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/25 Full Review Rolando E A pure classic. Might not be charming for today's audience since it's from 1982, but it has terrific nostalgia to those grown in the 80's. I remember watching this in elementary school.
