Candyman 2021 – Movie Review

candyman into the candy verse pretty much 
everything about candyman on a technical  
level is phenomenal every jordan peel production 
is for someone who hasn’t directed a whole lot  
theatrically i think nia decosta did a 
phenomenal job she does a great job of  
making the movie visually interesting even if 
the stuff on screen isn’t that intriguing like  
if there was a scene in this movie where candy 
man made toast on like a lazy sunday morning  
even that would be cool because of how interesting 
this movie shot the music is also really good  
composer robert lowe deserves a lot of credit 
for making a score reminiscent of the original  
while still feeling unique and different how was 
the story though it’s not what i expected that’s  
for sure and i’m not sure if it’s my fault or the 
marketing i don’t know if it’s because i saw no no  
no don’t say that in every single trailer but i 
was really expecting a lot more vanessa williams  
and tony todd there’s a lot of shots in the movie 
where you can’t really see candyman that well  
so maybe that’s tony todd but i don’t know if 
that really counts if you’re going into this movie  
going hell yeah tony todd’s back the og candy man 
i’m so excited don’t say that because you’re gonna  
be disappointed but if they’re gonna sideline the 
og characters the new ones better be good right  
right right actually yeah i liked him for

the most
part as far as pure performance goes i think all
the actors did phenomenal i think the big thing
that’s going to determine if you like this movie
is the pacing if you’ve seen the og candy man it
is very similar it’s kind of a slow burn and if
you haven’t and you’re expecting kills left
and right and candyman’s going crazy that’s
not how it is personally i had no problem with
it and i enjoyed watching this mystery unfold
we get scenes of tony finding inspiration
that are entertaining in its own right and
then whenever a white person steps in a mirror
man i just turned straight into that guy from
gravity falls i’m like get him get him the ending
is the ending’s interesting it ends on a really
cool note like the scene is awesome it fits into
the whole film’s themes of legacy and who lives
and who dies and who tells your story but i
feel like there is just more i wanted to see
the way the original ends it feels like a complete
story but when this one ends i’m like no no no no
keep going don’t stop like oh i was getting good
overall i enjoyed it though i wish there was more
tony todd but yahya and monica rambo did a really
good job i’d pay like 10 to see this movie and i’m
putting it in beats here right above free guy
also i saw fear street part one ctr above kong
i saw don’t breathe too and ct above

that i am the writing on the wall at least
eight here be my victim more like beats here get
it get get it dude that was just dumb time to die
