Serviceable version of the Broadway show. Burnett shines as Miss Hannigan.

Huston's biggest misfire; ponderous and sluggish.

[O]verly long, uninspired, and frequently awful...

Tale of cute orphan is great for the whole family.

The songs never take off into anything very much, the whole atmosphere (apart from the climax) is distinctly stagebound, and Huston merely reveals why he had never before in his long career been hired to make a musical.

John Huston is the wrong director, lacking appreciation for the musical genre

It's like some kind of dumb toy that doesn't do anything or go anywhere, but it is fun to watch as it spins mindlessly around and around.

The movie offers an insulting 'let them eat cake' gesture toward the 1982 audience, but the pacing is so ragged and the characters so lifeless that few will be able to stay awake long enough to feel offended.

This charming musical based on the comic strip character Little Orphan Annie features many memorable songs and pleasant dance numbers.

Many people said John Huston was an odd choice to direct Annie and he proves them right.

They don't build movies like this anymore.

What makes "Annie" so winning is that, while it could have easily been just another cutesy-poo Hollywood musical, it happens to be as gritty, genial and boisterous as little Annie herself.
