    Aside from the color tension, the political topics are clichéd and the horror jokes make no sense. While Disney is endlessly exporting American values, black people are also repeatedly talking about breathing, which has become the two major characteristics of current American movies....

    Forgive me for my lack of rank, I can't appreciate it... There are a few scary points and laughs that are okay. I advise everyone to take a look at the 1992 version before watching this one. This one is more like a...

    A horror movie that doesn't matter what you want, it's essentially a soul-raising horror movie, and it also has black elements of bitterness and hatred, but the plot is too fragmented and incoherent, the story is not attractive at all, and it is...

    The story surrounding the ghost Candy Man (the origin is the black man who died in vain in the past. It can be said to be the patron saint of black people): the artist black male protagonist who uses Candy Man as his artistic inspiration to continuously discover his story; the black man Billy who wants to make the male protagonist a candy man ; Candy Guys everywhere vindicating blacks (i.e. killing whites who were unfair to blacks); etc. The cinematography and camera movement/mée-scheduling are...

    If the 92 version of Candyman is a taboo evolution based on an anthropological urban legend combined with the tragic history of black Americans. This is a purely political metaphor about black people, but this metaphor is really boring. Apart from the metaphor of expression, this is the second velvet circular saw packaged in a clean package of contemporary art. Overall narrative technique, and storytelling clichés. And many discussions are contradictory. The original Clive Barker really is a...

    Seeing it in the fog, the political issues and the whole story did not form a good combination, and I felt that the director wanted to cook a pot of fragrant rice, but after an hour and a half, he opened it and found that the water was still water, and the rice was still...

    Exquisite interior decoration but not making good use of these space advantages, the overall feeling to me is that there is enough money, but the director's level is...

    I haven't seen the old version, so I can't compare. But this candyman vision is really a curation! The composition, angle, and colors are awesome? The rhythm of the story is also on point, as well as the blessing of shadow puppets, a visual feast. The issue of racial discrimination in the core is really a blade in a candy, and it is not good to be too left or too right. As for the low scores, well, discrimination against people of color is...
