Review of Candyman

Candyman (2021)
4/10
Great shots but terrible story
23 July 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Nia and the director of photography have some gorgeous and eerie shots in this film.

I think the puppeteer shadows are a great way to show some of the flashbacks; that is a creative choice. Another great factor are the upside down shots of the city to give an unsettling feeling for the viewers.

Unfortunately, the story falls flat in many places. There is potential, considering the less being connected to the original film.

Just something felt off - maybe a miscast or how things appeared rushed?
