Review of Hard Candy (2005) by Nikola J — 12 Jan 2011
Okay, so maybe I shouldn't have seen this one with a high level of expectations. I really liked the movie, for all the story and stuff - and I specially enjoyed the fact that it doesn't have too many actors - they were just two and the occasional presence of others. Yet I was disappointed, since I have heard of a rather famous torture scene and I was expecting quite a lot more from it. The thing that impressed me the most was indeed the power of persuasion. I mean, the little girl fucked his mind in such a way that he ended up killing himself - just like she wanted !
By the way, this was the first movie I saw with Ellen Page (haven't even saw Juno yet), and I was amazed with her performance.
Overall, a rather good movie.
