Jeff: I'll do jail. Isn't, isn't that what should happen? Hayley: Yeah. You might. You might get jail time. I dunno: therapy, drugs, group discussions, notifying people when you move into a new house. How bad is that, really? Jeff: It'll ruin my career, ruin my…

as a child that has been through pedophilia I actually really enjoyed this movie. Normal people might think that it was honestly horrible and he didn’t deserve it but I loved watching every second of it. He wasn’t the victim the children were
Superbad is "meh" onHard CandyThis is two movies now where Patrick Wilson is playing a pedophile 🤔 You got something your tryna tell us my man?
cambria likedHard Candy8.2/10 - i love seeing terrible men get what they deserve 😌 - she’s always one step ahead and i love that - “just because a girl knows how to imitate a woman does not mean she’s ready to do what a woman does.” PERIOD

love a good revenge good character plot. Elliot killed his role in this film, plot was there. got a bit boring at some parts but it all adds up at the end. good film, i don’t need to see it again though.
Sam likedHard Candyliterally best movie ive ever seen literally girlboss
bean likedHard CandyThis was so shocking. I was on the edge of my seat and permanently cringing the whole time. Don’t think I’d watch again, but glad I gave it a go. It didn’t go in the direction I expected, and it had some surprising twists and turns. I liked it. Definitely a conversation starter.

First let me just say I love a movie that can keep me on the edge of my seat. This movie has amazing DETAIL WHICH I LIVE FOR and just a great story to tell. Sadly even in 2025 what this movie talks about/ message is still relevant and that’s why I would say watch it ❤️
Damien lovedHard CandyElliot should have won an Oscar or been nominated. He was fantastic in the film and so was Patrick Wilson. I wish the character was real and kept up the good work. Excellent movie.
sazlianahsam likedHard CandyThis is pretty intense and good performance. I noticed the colour changes palette when it comes to the moods, the plots is not too cliche and the final revenge ending is satisfying.

Metacritic
Tautly directed by David Slade, this drama probably offers more sadism than anyone could possibly want...The characters are absurd, but if you're up for this sort of thing, then surely you can con yourself into accepting them. Personally, I'd rather have this movie obliterated from my memory.

A tough sit, but it attracts more than repels you. It commands your attention. Once it lands its hooks in you, there's no tearing away.
Eric Campos
Film Threat
A spectacular performance by teenage thesp Ellen Page elevates this disturbing slice of designer shocksploitation into a film that's impossible to dismiss on principle.
