Movie Review
Grade: C
Trite but harmless, "Annapolis" follows the adventures of one young loser trying to achieve his dreams - of becoming a West Point graduate. No, there's nothing bad about graduating from the prestigious school, but the main character, played by James Franco, is so full of himself that he does his best not to succeed every step of the way. Of course, his commanding officer (or drill sargeant or whatever they are called at West Point) sees something in him, even though the audience doesn't. Read the full movie review

hmmm WEST POINT????, by James
July 28, 2006
I dont recall this being anything about West Point hence West Point being in the upper New York area while the Naval Academy of Annapolis is the one being discussed int this film. Hence the Navy and Marine battle in the boxing ring. I am a military brat as well and since none has pegged this mistake of sayin West Point and not USNA well I can only say do more research before writing using reference to such a prestigious and honorable place. No I am not a Navy brat but an USAF brat but still no my knwoledge to the branches honorable Academies.
