If you're going to remake something remake it well or don't bother. This is the problem with Hollywood these days, destroying perfectly good classics with sheer bone headed dribble.

The movie was terrible, the flow of it was all over the place, no proper story build up or background (as for example to why Mr Stacks would in 3 minute space without much convincing even though he did not come across as much of a people person decide to take Annie into his home.)

The songs just came out of the blue and were very irritating to listen to.

The lead Quvenzhané Wallis although not much to her fault but rather the scripts came across as a really loud and annoying brat.

The only reason I gave it a 2 was I found Jamie Foxx's role to be rather enjoyable and humourfull but besides that don't bother wasting your time.

Yet another classic remade to be some sort of "modern" adaptation.
