Annie [1999] (DVD)

This film is very entertaining and is a must buy. In the film, an orphan has lived all her life with one family, but the woman is very mean to her. Then, she is looked after by a billionairre for a while, and she loves it. She might even get a couple of little surprizes. The cast does a great job and fit into their roles very well. The script is good and the director also works well. The film can be watched over and over again before it gets boring. The story is very easy to understand so everyone will be able to watch and enjoy the film. The soundtrack is very good and entertaining. You will be singing along to it in no time. ...

Mr Warbucks is a very busy man, and he doesn't really plan ...
