Annapolis
50,000 apply. 1,200 are accepted. Only the best survive.
After dreaming about it for years, a blue-collar kid trained in the school of hard knocks (James Franco) is accepted at the U.S. Naval Academy, only to find that life in Annapolis is a pressure cooker. To prove himself in this cutthroat world, the struggling freshman enters a fiercely competitive boxing contest -- but does he have what it takes to make it?

I really enjoyed this movie. I thought it would be all about the navy and that's it. This movie has so much depth and teaches about life and about relationships and how to adjust to life outside of the so called bubble. I really think that this movie doesn't get the recognition that it deserves.Annapolis - tlefrancois
Although a lot have people have been saying that it's a waste of time to go see this movie, I would disagree. James Franco is a very talented actor, and I thought he did well in this movie. Not only that, I found Annapolis in general to be an entertaining film. The boxing scenes were well shot and exciting enough. I know that it's similar to Topgun, but I wouldn't call it a rip off. It's got it's own flare, and I throughly enjoyed watching. A good soundtrack, great cinematography, and good acting really make this movie. This movie might not be for everyone, but I'm usually a pretty tough critic and I really liked it. So, if you're looking for a good watch one night, go check out Annapolis and decide for yourself.Annapolis??? - kurtis02
Ok, I don't exacly get the name of the movie, but hey the name doesn't make the movie. You might expect a movie about only navy stuff and so on, but this makes you realize in a way that these people that serve our country have a life outside of this. We all have goals we all get lost and we try to find the right road. It doesnt make you wrong for giving up then trying again. Watching this movie just puts all ranks at the same level of fairness, not in everyday life you get to be fair with your boss hein!!! Anyhow all this to say it wa a great movie as long as you dont go into it with expectations. I had no idea what this was but i was glad I watched it it was good from start to finish, just remember its not all about the navy its about life.
