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

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. |

QUOTE(tungmyBANANA @ Jan 12 2008, 02:15 PM)  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. |

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. |

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. |

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).
