Atom User Reviews for Candyman
Good movie went too heavy on the woke stuff
#verydisappointing
maybe it's not for my age
This is an excellent (I'm gonna call it a companion) film to the original. There's lots of good visual storytelling that gives me the impression there are layers to this film I didn't pick up this go around. I definitely feel like this needs more than one watch but in aβ¦
I love that every Jordan peele movie inspires great conversations with my friends. Everything from the imagery, to the music choices seems so carefully chosen. I also love that a black man has this opportunity to show off his talent and the talents of other black people.β¦
Loved it definitely will be going to see again 5 stars
For fans of the original who are apprehensive, give it a shot; I know the origins of Candyman might seem off but trust and believe that youβll recognize things in this new one. Itβs fresh, it has a message like the first, itβs good!
Really enjoyed it until the last 10 minutes or so. Not horrible but was confusing and felt a little rushed. Still a solid horror movie and worthy update of the original.
Woke trash.
The storyline and subsequent backstory of Candyman was phenomenal. I won't go into details of the movie, but it is a MUST SEE!
MAKE SURE YOUβVE SEEN βCANDYMANβ(1992). THIS MOVIE IS THE SEQUEL!ππΎππΎπ¬πππππππ
This film was powering and uplifting because the slayings committed in this installment had a Black Lives Matter message. Gentrification, and the creation of ghettos were also talked about in this film, so the audience could understand how systemic oppression works toβ¦
Do not Recommend Not horror, not gorey, not scary, not worth it. Saw more deaths on screen watching Hunger Games.
I would definitely watch again

boring
not scary nor creepy, it was very political. not worth seeing it in theaters. a little disappointed not gonna lie.
Iβd say for the most part it was good but all the racial things involved with the movie overstated itβs welcome so Iβd say for a movie it was good but there are issues
Whatβs really going on?
It could have been scary. Slot of blood but nothing to make you jump
Love the history it gave of the projects in Chicago
Was just ok. Had a decent amount of killing and gore, but that Tony Todd cameo at the end felt out of place or not needed.
Wish it was more of horror and scary but they made the movie more about race.
I wouldnβt pay to see this not worth it
The original is so good that I was expecting good things from this. There is zero lead up to anything, they just jump into it. Besides the whole woke nonsense. Get ready to be told how white people are the enemy for the whole damn film, so disappointing
Save your dollars
Jordan Peele does it again! Literally.
Needs a Trypophobia warning
garbage dont even waste your eyes on this trash movie...
Ok movie needed more scares.
It was okay was not scary at all.
Great film!
This movie is 100% must see and it is really well written!
Superior editing
I gave it 4 stars because I like the OG Tony Todd as Candyman
Love it. Awesome movie. Will purchase the movie when it comes out
I will be watching this again ???? Jordan Peele has done it again !!!!!!!!!!
Itβs not the original storyline. But made the best of it.
The original one was better
The movie had an excellent cast! I love the tie in from the different versions of Candyman. Not as scary but definitely a must see! I would give the movie a B+ β¦
love it.
So good!
Candyman was pretty good, not what I expected, but okay.
Jordan Peele does it again!!!! Love it.
10/10 Highly Recommend Watching this especially for Horror fans who's seen the original CandyMan , very scary, suspenseful, altogether it's a Must See movie!!
I love the fact that the original story is incorporated into the story line. I love the cast and Tony at the end is the icing on the cake.
I love the connection the 2021 Candyman had with the original Candyman. The storytelling made you excited to see what comes next. The only problem I had with the movie was the ending. I do believe they rush the ending of the movie.
You must watch the 1992 Candy Man to understand the 2021 version.
It was dope saw it twice
For the film to have as many rescheduled dates as it did, it was just ok.
