I was never interested but ended up watching outta pure coincedence...but all and all it wasn't a bad watch, it was surprisingly not completely a long ass advert for the Marines, which is what I thought it was exactly, hence my lack of interest...

Little to do with the Naval academy, poor acting, less than stellar direction and not exactly what the trailer promised... So why would I give this movie 3 stars? Ok, I can be shallow~ I love looking at James Franco. *_*

I found Annapolis in general to be an entertaining film. The boxing scenes were well shot and exciting enough. James Franco looked buff in the manner of young Hollywood and did OK with the material he was given but it lacked enough story substance to feel real. Jordana Brewster ...( read more)

Another example of a military acceptance film.A young man from the wrong side of the tracks has his dream come true when he is accepted to the Naval Academy. But once there he is not sure he measures up against the best and the brightest.

the only reason i watched this movie is because of James Franco. He was quite good here. the story as a whole, so-so. ive seen many other movies with almost the same storyline like this.

Its watchable, but nothing really quite stand above. Great incursion and okay performances, it's just a standard movie I guess. Nothing to be original, impressive or anything.

Critic Reviews
While Officer is an almost-great movie, Annapolis, watered down and one degree further from inspiration, is merely an almost-good movie. full review
Pretty much every line in the movie comes from another movie -- 'How bad do you want it?' 'You're not good enough,' etc. And like virtually all Hollywood films about the military, Annapolis is cheerfu... full review
... an exhausted wheeze of bankrupt cliches and cardboard characters, the kind of film that has no visible reason for existing, except that everybody got paid. full review
Old-fashioned in the most dull, clunky way possible. full review
