Hard Candy: Please, Make It Stop
12 hours after experiencing this film and I still can’t formulate a pointed opinion. My mind is playing a constant, rotating game of tennis with the traditional protagonist / antagonist roles. So many unanswered questions, thoughts…
If you enjoy a ride, well, Hard Candy is that type of film. Just don’t bring the kids.
Seriously.

Caught this tonite. I’m still having difficulty deciding whether I liked it or not, althought I’ll admit that it was quite a ride. I also can’t quite place it, but the whole subject matter just made me a bit uneasy.
I kept reminding myself, “this girls only 14″ while Lil Hayley, with scalple in hand tells Jeff in a calm and collected mannner, “you will feel a tug as I remove your left testicle”. The disturbing situation and the ensuing dialogue had me shifting in my seat pretty much throughtout the whole movie.
