Very likable movie; from the casting to the updated music.

four stars

Our family really enjoyed it. It was actually a lot better than we thought it would be. The original is one of my wife's favorite movies EVER, so we had high hopes. Awesome fun movie for the whole family and kept with the spirit of the original! :)

A solid film with a likable cast that won't leave you wondering why they attempted to remake a classic. Annie 2014 is slow to get going, but makes up for it by the end with the only sour note beinf an overacting Cameron Diaz who we find parodying Carol Burnette rather than owning her own role. The story and music are fresh for 2014, but the original need not fear this as a new classic.
