Candyman [movie]
FIRST OF ALL, THIS MOVIE IS GOOD, NONE OF THIS IS TO SAY IT'S BAD. IT JUST FEELS LIKE THIS MOVIE USED A LOT OF POWERFUL IMAGERY BUT IT FELT LIKE IT NEVER GOT TO A CENTRAL POINT WITH IT. LIKE IT FEELS LIKE THE ACTUAL CORRECT STORY THAT THIS HINTED AT IS THE IDEA IF OVER ALL OF HISTORY THEY KEEP UNJUSTLY KILLING BLACK MEN THAT EVENTUALLY LIKE BEES THEY WILL SWARM TOGETHER AND BE A CANDYMAN AS AVENGING ANGEL. BUT THEN THEY ALSO SEEM LIKE THEY JUST KINDA SHOWED CANDYMAN JUST KINDA KILLING WHOEVER. LIKE WHAT DID RACIAL JUSTICE GET OUT OF KILLING BOOF? OR CLIVE? I GUESS IT CAN BE SOME 'IF YOU WANT MONSTERS YOU GET MONSTERS" OR SOMETHING, BUT IT FELT LIKE THE MOVIE JUST KINDA WANDERED AROUND A LITTLE AND MUDDLED UP THE POINT IT WAS MAKING. WHY YOU GOTTA KILL BOOF?
PS. WE WATCHED THIS MINUTES AFTER WATCHING THE ORIGINAL SO IT WAS VERY EXCITING FOR THE RETURNING CAST AND CHARACTERS TO SHOW UP AND I LOVE THEY TOLD THE HELEN STORY SLIGHTLY WRONG BECAUSE THAT FITS EXACTLY.
