Reviews:
“Uncanny Annie isn’t just a body count movie where we watch cardboard cut-out characters get picked off one-by-one. There is something more going on here. The story goes in directions that I did not predict at all, and the characters have some depth. There was a stronger dramatic story playing out among the action than I expected there to be…” Arrow in the Head
