Hard Candy, Fullscreen Edition DVD Review

Hands down this is one tightly wound provocative psychological thriller centered around a  physical game of cat and mouse that is as fascinating to watch as a train wreck. It's two main characters( Ellen Page and Patrick Wilson)who deliver explosive performances show you that never know who you will meet in a chat room.

To go into full detail will spoil this movie so the baldly stated story reads like this: after  a coffee shop rendezvous between sweet innocent 14-year-old Haley(Page)and 32-year-old fashion photographer Jeff (Wilson) the two decide to go back to Jeff's to take photo's and after a drink and a nap the movie turns into a meticulously planned game of retribution. Jeff has done this before but never has he met a girl like Haley. You tend to feel sorry for this 14yr old child but as the movie rolls on your tune may change somewhat.Througout the movie the rug is snatched out from under you sending your heart racing to the very end.
