A smart and charming teenage girl, Hayley, probably shouldn't be going to a local coffee shop to meet Jeff, a 30 something fashion photographer she met on the internet. But before she knows it she's mixing drinks at Jeff's place and stripping off for an impromptu photo shoot. It's Jeff's lucky night. But Hayley isn't as innocent as she looks, and the night takes a turn when she begins to impose a hard hitting investigation on Jeff in an attempt to reveal his possibly scandalous past.

'Hard Candy' is one of those films that refuses to stick to narrative ang generic conventions, so if your looking for an easy ride, think again. 'HC' is a bitter and twisted movie about a photographer and a sexual predator (Patrick Wilson) and 14 year old girl who 'falls' into his trap (Ellen Page).
There are two reasons why I enjoyed this film so much:
1. Because the narrative tables turns so quickly and brilliantly.
2. Ellen Page, she is definatly my favourite actress at the moment.
Her performance is painfully realistic, almost like she's used to doing this (you will understand what I mean when you watch it).
Page is definatly here to stay.
'HC' is a gripping low-budget psychological thriller that will make you cringe, clench your fists and make you want to watch it again and again.
Fantastic!

If your one of those people who likes to have their movies explained to them in a clear and concise manner then this isn't for you.
However, if you are a true fan of the more psychological aspects of cinema then this is most defiantly a must see. * * * * *
Good Acting But A Bit Boring

A few parts of the film are a bit hard to watch as they are very cringe-worthy but overall i found the film quite boring. The previews for it when it was at the cinema looked really good but it doesnt meet the expectation unforunately. Some of it is also a bit hard to follow and i got a bit confused.
