Movie night

Last night i decided to stop everything i was doing, close down my overloaded brain for a few hours, and sat down and watched a DVD for the first time in ages.

There are very few movies that stick in my mind, but there was one i had watched a few years ago that i decided to re watch again because i find that movies tend to change the older you get, you see things differently and pick things up that you didn't see the first time round.
So i watched a movie called HARD CANDY.

The leading Roles are played by Patrick Wilson (Whom you might recognise from movies like THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA or LITTLE CHILDREN, both films i absolutely love) And Ellen Page Who recently became more recognised for playing the pregnant chick from the movie JUNO.


This movie (HARD CANDY) is deliciously controversial and keeps you wondering from start to Finnish. Most males hate this film, and Film Critics are at war over whether or not it is immoral and disgusting or a justified eye opener. Some even go so far as to say it should be shown at schools the world over.... but i can't tell you why because i don't want to spoil a good movie plot.

I picked this movie up and was kept on the edge of my seat from start to finish, wondering who was predator and who was prey. Right up to literally the last 2 minutes left of the film, i still wasn't sure whether or not the person was guilty of everything they were accused of. (trying to be careful not to spoil movie here!)


My advice is, don't read the cover. Don't read any synopsis of the movie, just watch it.
