      Jordan Peele Continues to Discuss Black Race Issues

      The 1369th movie I've seen, "Candyman" I give it a 6.7. The sequel to "Candy Man" in 1992, Jordan Peele, who had directed "Escape from the Dead" and "Us", served as the screenwriter. Jordan Peele, as the screenwriter of the film, had an obvious influence on the style of the film, and the issue of black race ran through Full film. The first scene of the film uses a silhouette to not only reproduce the death of George Floyd, a black American, after the violent law enforcement by white police...

      "Candy Man" (2021), a pseudo-horror film kidnapped by "political correctness".

      1992 is the year when the peak of Gothic horror "The Four Hundred Years of Vampire Zombies" was born. In the same year, another unpopular low-budget thriller "Candy Man" also broke out. It also follows the line of fantasy and romance, and it is also the CP routine of a very beautiful heroine and a terrifying monster, but Candyman cleverly combines urban horror legends with the real Chicago and black issues, and the implication is deeper than "stunning". The film also produced a kind of...

      The ending is a failure, the pictures and feelings can't be saved

      The ending is too bad. The racial issue in the original work is just a background. The Candy Man is essentially a grievance similar to the grudge Riga Coconut. It has become a symbol of the oppressed black community. Why should the male protagonist be sacrificed? Although he was discriminated against by some white people, he was living a good life. You forcibly transformed him into a candy man and abused him with only half his life, and induced the police to hunt him down and finally blame...

      The storyteller is too eager to let the audience know his point of view, but it has the opposite effect. The story is cliché and pale, like the jujube stone stuck in the throat can't be spit out or swallowed, which is extremely uncomfortable. The final climax is slightly surprising, but short and hasty. The "shadow play" at the end of the film is the best content of the whole film: all black people are like bees in a cage. They seem to be vicious, but their influence is weak. Tips: If you are...

    • Troy Cartwright: Ain't a dick on the planet good enough to offset a demonology hobby.

    • William Burke: [from the trailer] That was the first time that I saw fear

    • William Burke: [on Daniel Rotabille] They chased him down till he finally collapsed from exhaustion, beat him, severed his right hand with rusty saw, smeared him with honey and let bees sting him, but that didn't kill him, only when they set him on fire did he finally die
