Review of Hard Candy (2005) by Sabine W — 22 May 2013
Wow - This movie is something else.
Patrick Wilson showed his versatility and vulnerability in roles.
The power he brought to his scenes is freakishly breathtaking. Lulling you into a sense of false security before turning to reveal true characteristics.
Ellen Page gives a good performance, her sadistic portrayal of a crazed teen is shown through the hollow shell of girl on a mission. Really convincing performance.
The only problem I have with this film (besides not really liking Ellen Page) is that I bought an R18+ film thinking I would get more of psychological thriller. It was a little more predictable than I expected.
