elvisthealienAug 30, 2021big ups to Nia DaCosta for making me feel represented on screen!! (character who invites a hot artist to their house to listen to Fetch The Bolt Cutters and tell them their art is "actually soooo good")

Buddy OAug 24, 2021CANDYMAN was a mixed bag of sweets and sours for me. Enjoyed Nia DaCosta’s haunting atmosphere, striking camerawork, the dark score & powerfully disturbing themes. But the economically rushed storytelling resulted in dull characters, a disjointed narrative & a messy…

Amazing take on a classic urban legend. I guess quite a bit of people did not like the ending, but I thought it was fitting.

Sabrina Bondi likedCandymanWith its shadow puppetry, sophisticated reclamation of the Candyman legend and slick, confident filmmaking, even for those not thrilled by the idea of horror cinema more generally, it is hard to deny that Candyman is a massive and exciting step forward.
- Santana Beltran is "meh" onCandyman
Seems like the writers had a lot of great ideas - but none of those great ideas are given enough time to be explored when you only have 90 minutes to work with.
Emma is "meh" onCandymanI don’t remember much but I remember not understanding most of the movie might rewatch 🤷♀️

SOOOOOOOO GOOD. YAYHA IS SO FINE IN THIS MOVIE LET ME SLOB ON YOUR NOB I LOVE YOU SOOOOO BAD. YOURE SO BAD. also ofc this movie had a great message abt the tribulations the black community faces and how we have gone abt coping with it. also gentrification and HOW BAD THAT MAN IS
Valak likedCandymanIf you like movies with very understandable hidden meanings then this movie is for you!! What a amazing story about racial injustice, the shots and the artistic aspects about this film just make it beautiful, if the story didn’t blow you away I don’t know what will.
usopp likedCandymanEntertaining and suspenseful, good but not great. Solid modern take on the story that makes it fit appropriately in today’s social landscape.

Nia DaCosta, young director of the fine Little Woods, is behind the camera and she shows a real gift for gruesome showboating.

By the end of this new Candyman, little personal investment remains for the audience, just a miasma of provocative thoughts failing to cohere into something greater. The film has enough visual panache to make it an involving watch, but it struggles to live up to the audaciousness of its deeper ideas.

Candyman pays homage to the original, while still maintaining its uniqueness with a fresh and provocative plot
