I recommend this flick.
Anyone else seen it? I saw it on Showtime not too long ago.

[arcanum]

I wanted to, I haven't gotten the chance yet. Maybe I'll rent it this weekend or something.

[karmakiller]

I saw that movie back when it came out. I feel bad for guys who have to watch it. Esspecially that, like, long ass scene... ouch.

[Relentless]

I've heard of this but I haven't seen this yet. It looks really interesting yet weird. o.O

[missnh]

Sounds like the kind of thing I'd like to see

[Djlunatix]

Note: not for the faint of heart.


Loved this movie, huge fan of Ellen Page, be sure to check out her new movie JUNO, featuring Michael Cera (from Superbad).

[pandamonium]

crazy ass movie. you think shes the victim but noooooo. lmao. haha this movie was good. i think a lot of people should watch it.

it was disgusting at some parts but eek.

[queen]

it was a fun watch. the dialogue is pretty interesting, and the visuals were soothing to the eye. i thought it was a relaxing movie, even during that scene. and ellen page made that character her own. good flick.

I agree some of the most intense moments, it didn't seem like a Thriller. It was a nice turn, but I can't say that I didn't know a twist was coming. Ellen Page is clearly one of the better young actresses in Hollywood, and yet is overlooked quite often. I find it interesting this movie came up for discussion now, because David Slade the director also directed "30 Days of Night" which debuts in theaters everywhere Oct. 19, 2007. (This Friday)

[karmakiller]

Is there a topic on 30 Days of Night? I'll go check after I post this, lol.

Gosh, I feel bad for guys that have watched this movie. Even I had to cross my legs during that scene.

As a guy, I don't feel bad at all. Yes it was painful to watch, and yes one reason is because I do enjoy Patrick Wilson as a Actor, but still the concept of that pedophile getting what he deserves was bliss. My friends little sister, was a victim of attempted kidnapped, by this guy who looked at her pictures on her myspace (innocent pictures, nothing risque at all, just pictures of her at school and such). He tried to kidnap her at the mall, but was unsuccessful because she was yelling and kicking and screaming, and the mall security apprehended him. Anyways long story short..justice was served in that movie, even though it was a Brutal justice.

and I don't think there is a 30 days of night section, as quite a few people most likely haven't even heard of it. I can't wait to see it. :)

[sharerol]

saw it a while ago but dude......shes one smartass kid. i should watch it again it was good

[Simba]

I love how simple the production of this movie was. It was shot in like, 18 days, there only five actors, most of the movie was shot in one area, and the cinematography was awesome.

Ha ha, I felt for the dude in that scene.

Yea, loved Sandra Oh's appearance in the movie.

There is now

[cyb3r0ptik]

i'd procrastinated watching this movie for some time - my roommate owns it... He even told me what a great movie it was.

I wish I hadn't procrastinated to see it, but i'm glad I finally got around to it.

[Insurmountable]

Oh man, I remember this movie.

Me and Josh hadn't met yet and he saw this movie and was so scared I was going to end up like a crazy chick like that chick and castrate him or something I laughed so hard in that movie.


I felt really bad for a guy but he had it coming and it was deserved. I liked how simple the movie was as well...i didn't know any background stuff on it or that it only took like 18 days to shoot.

I'm going to bump this topic. I saw the movie last night. Great movie. I felt sorry for the guy, but oh wells. There are some theories. It's obvious she didn't castrate his balls, as when he got loosed he looked at his balls, and said "I'm all here". The pain he was feeling was more physiological, and it could also be the frostbite he had. He removed the clip, as it was also the pain he was feeling. The blood was fake, as if you look real carefully, it was actually jelly. The suicide scene at the end, there are many theories to it. As he was jumping off, Ellen said she would take care of everything, but when he jumps off, she said or maybe not. You could hear the sound of him hitting the ground, as he didn't actually die, he merely fell to the ground. He is confronted by Janelle, and your imagination is left there of what happened. Great movie overall. I recommend it.

[Gryffindor-Girl]

I haven't seen this movie but I don't plan to anytime soon.

[Tung]

I haven't seen this movie but I don't plan to anytime soon.

You're missing out.

[Gryffindor-Girl]

You're missing out.

Its rated R rated R movies freak me out I know that sounds babyish but you know what I really don't care.

[Insurmountable]

I thought Ellen Page was better in this movie then in Juno.

[Tung]

I thought Ellen Page was better in this movie then in Juno.

What did you think of it Holly about the ending. I believe he survived and was confronted by Jenna. The rope was very long, and didn't bulge when he jumped, and you could hear the sound of him landing on the ground.

[Joss-eh-lime]

i need to watch the whole thing, but from what i saw it was interesting and ellen page is a great actress

[iDecay]

I watched it a few months ago. Poor guy.

Ellen Page's character really freaked me out. I'd be scared to know her.

[LoveToMySilas]

Man, I have a thing for Ellen page's movies. I've been dying to see this and Juno.

[pandaa]

ive wanted to watch that movie didnt get a chance to yet but
i do recomend another movie with ellen page JUNO!! i love that movie

[captivatedheart]

the movie was really good. i watched it with my boyfriend and he was sooo disturbed haha.

[*CowerPointyObjects*]

I bought it on impulse the other day ($7 at Kroger!) and it was certainly interesting.

[pandamonium]

it was like i felt everything, just like patrick wilson did in the movie.

[HaruHaruko]

i watched this movie today and i found ellen to be really clever and funny. i'd be interested to see what happened with the first guy.

i also don't think she castrates (sp) him. i think she just put the clip on it. if he was, he would be limping around, even if that.

[*CowerPointyObjects*]

Well, that and he looked down and said "I'm all here."

i didn't here that, but i also have really bad hearing.

i think she fooled him into killing himself and not cleaning up after him like she promised. that's what she meant for "or not."

did anyone else get a strange feeling of little red ridding hood in this movie? more so at the end when she rolls down the hill.

well duh its a movie.

[Tung]

well duh its a movie.

lmao holly just pwned miscitta.

[*CowerPointyObjects*]

I think Holly inadvertently got herself pwned.

[HaruHaruko]

well duh its a movie.

i don't even understand.

[Insurmountable]

Well I mean no shit he didn't really get castrated, its a movie. I'm pretty sure they weren't thinking of the whole effect of making him limp when he goes outside or whatever.

Its a movie.

[synthase]

Ellen Page is an incredible actor indeed. She can portray so many characters and include her own unique twist.

About the scene that everybody is talking about, I think they just wanted to set the mood for the viewers. Of course, its just a movie.

[NoSex]

I'm really not a huge fan, or a fan at all, of Hard Candy. I thought it was predictable, apologetic, and not particularly well written. It wasn't bad, but it most certainly wasn't anything too great. Definitely an overrated film - and I suggest that it is as such as it plays to the desires and wishes of its audiences so obviously. It doesn't really take any chances or make any interesting points. In its defense, it makes great use of a limited cast and set - for a psychological thriller, the film has a very modest set (that single house, for the most part).

oh well i know that she didn't really castrate him. haha
