Review of Candyman (2021) by M300 — 12 Jul 2022
Sadly the movie is portraying modern political views rather than a movie based on the original concept.
Go to the Wikipedia page for the 1992 movie and see how it was last edited this July and has been edited to be in line with the remake and todays political agendas.
On point of the original movie, the movie had nothing to do with race in it, at the 15 minute mark the entrance into investigating deeper with Helen and Bernie (The chick with the blue sweater who tricks Helen into thinking there is a person in the vacant apartment behind their medicine cabinet).
The following; "Gangs hold this place hostage" - Gangs in the Carbrini-Green area. As Bernie points out they both look like cops. Has no racial tie and the only agenda is to not get attacked by said gangs.
From 16:57 into the movie play time, the scene with both in the car on their way is where The mention of gangs and them looking like police happens, further on from this it is also mentioned that Helen is brave and see's no danger in being who she is even when given words of wisdom, she gets beaten in a toilet by thugs and a wannabe Candyman.
The remake is a terrible film, a master peice and great study on the lowering of human intelligence and how anyone with a narrative regardless of truth or not can hold power over people, sad and pathetic. Racist movie with ulterior motives, get help.
