Movie Reviews of Candy
Movie Review: So Much Love
Summary: 5 Stars
I picked up this movie because I love the actor Heath Ledger. I was thrilled with this movie the entire time I watched it. It was definately something new for me in the way of a drug movie, but it wasn't completely about the heroin. It was also about love. There was love for each other, and love of the drug. Through the entire movie the viewer is left to figure out which love is paramount.
Heath did an amazing job portraying Dan. And Abbie Cornish did a very good job playing the title character Candy. The supporting cast was also very good and helped tie the movie together.
I will definately be purchasing a copy of this movie because it does say a lot about the relationships people have with each other, and how an addiction, be it anything, can effect them. I learned a lot watching this and it prompted me to read the book, which is also worth your time.
Movie Review: Tragic Love Story Worth Watching
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a tragic love story that is worth watching!...with amazing actors and performances and a very sad story. It tells the story of love and addiction between two people. This movie shows their life together and their attempts at quitting the drugs. You watch them along their struggle and want to help them out of their problems and get them to drug-free happiness again. I'm glad I bought this movie. I seen it before I bought it, and after watching it, I knew I wanted to buy it. I didn't know how well I would like it at first, but I do like it. But, if you're going to watch it, prepare yourself for some sadness. This movie also includes one of my favorite actors in it...HEATH LEDGER!! In my opinion, all his movies are great! I do recommend this movie...and all of Heath Ledger's movies as well. May he rest in peace!Movie Review: WOW Im lost for words
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an amazing movie. I love how they showed the relationship of a man and woman on drugs. It showed how the drugs at first gives them a strong connection of love, sex and friendship. Then it goes on and shows, how after a while of using heroin the relationship becomes tainted and and volatile. Once clean and removed from each other for a while, there is some clarity from Dan about how the relationship really was, very unhealthy, codependent and dangerous. The acting in this if spot on, I dont know how I missed it in the theaters. Heath Ledger was a very talented actor its to bad that the reality of this movie caught up with him.
BTW Im a drug counselor, do you think this movie is to vivid for new addicts in recovery?? Let me know your opinion.
Movie Review: very moving
Summary: 5 Stars
I rented this movie the first time i saw it and i was so impressed with both Abbie Cornish and Heath Ledger. they both prove in this film that they have the ability to do all types of roles. the story is moving but sad and when the movie is over you cant help feeling a little bit depressed. But its a story of love between two people and a drug that completely transforms their lives and themselves as people. If your a movie buff or your just interested in seeing a good movie with great acting, i would suggest it very much. and if your a Heath Ledger fan i would definitely add this to your list of his movies. we should take advantage of the movies he did make since he's gone now. and he gave a great performance in this one!!Movie Review: Brilliant and absorbing
Summary: 5 Stars
Sadly I give my review after Heath Ledger's death...I have watched this movie several times in bits and pieces over the past two months and have gotten something new from it each time. I got the chance to sit and watch the whole thing through on January 21st. This movie sucks you in and holds your attention.
It runs the gambit of emotions. It made me cry with their losses; it made me mad they had no strength; and when their spirits broke - well, you'll just need to watch it. This is a story from a bright beginning down the dark path to an ending that was beautifully perfomed and which put Heath Ledger in the top 3 on my list of favorite actors. I already miss the movies we will never see from this man.
