À propos de ce film

Oscar® winner Jordan Peele and filmmaker Nia DaCosta unleash a fresh take on the blood-chilling urban legend: Candyman. For decades, the housing projects of Chicago's Cabrini-Green were terrorized by a ghost story about a supernatural, hook handed killer. In present day, an artist (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) begins to explore the macabre history of Candyman, not knowing it would unravel his sanity and unleash a terrifying wave of violence that puts him on a collision course with destiny.

Notes et avis

Seriously not even a Candyman movie. The movie pushes racist ideas (all white cops want to kill black men; specifically 20 of them on one guy) because someone did it to them. They say an eye for an eye makes the whole world blind, but this movie's just blind to its own stupidity. It's a shame too, because it was very well produced and shot.

Everyone here with their " people who are woke" and "liberals will love this movie" comment's are really missing the point. And I just want to say that your ineptitude to understand what is happening in our society is disgusting. With that said Heres the point. Movie was okay. I enjoyed coming back into the Candy Man movie in a different way. As it gets closer to the ending I really think it kind of missed the point, it did fall flat. It also got a bit confusing. Thats the review 👍

So disappointed! I was a fan of the original but this plot and story line drifted into more of a stereotypical racial statement. Horror, thriller, suspense these aspects were totally left out of this movie. Please save the political statements for politics instead of badly twisting iconic titles into poorly written soap box platform so that we can go back to the movies to be entertained.
