I saw clips from the new movie and immediately wanted to see it. I think there are good points and bad points to each movie. I think that the new movie had a better Annie and molly. But i think the old one had a better Mrs. Hannigan and daddy Warbucks. I like the new one better though. I still like the old one though. they both had very high spirited performances and incredible singing. The new one had better singing and acting.And its closer to the stage play.I think the new Annie is a whole lot prettier. Shes so adorable and i look to her as an inspiration.Don't get me wrong, the old annie is terrific but the new ones better. And Carol Burnett played Mrs.Hannigan perfectly. This is what i think about this movie

k, no offense to anyone who likes this movie/musical. But i think that this musical is way to old and should just be put out of it's misery. Annie is kind of like your great aunt Marge... you know you love her, but you don't always want to see her. Not that they should change it to like, rent music, but i think a remake would be best for all of us. Espessially so people don't begin thinking that all that Broadway is, is cheesy music like Annie, and that it can be really good. Maybe they should think about doing a movie of Wicked, or Beauty and the Beast, Aida, Lion King, ANYTHING!!!!! Just get some more Broadway out there for people to begin to obsess over and get all of this rap junk off of the radio. Please, stop the madness and get a new, updated, REAL musical that's actually on Broadway, on DVD. PLEASE!!!!!

I used to be obsessed with Annie when I was young and saw all of the movies and the Broadway show. Then, I saw that this film was coming out. I was so excited. I watched it and absolutely loved it. I think it is the best Annie film to date. Why do I think that? the acting. Newcomer Alicia Morton is adorable and has a fantastic voice. She does great in the emotional scenes and is tough at some times and sweet at others. Audra Mcdonald also gives a solid performance and plays the part of grace perfectly. Kudos to Kathy Bates for singing because in an interview I saw she said she'd never sing. She also was hilarious at Ms. Hannigan. Victor Garber, Alan Cumming, and Kristin Chenoweth also gave great performances. Oh and the orphans and Sandy were adorable! I recommend this film. Great for the family.
