    Carry on filming
    I Want Candy is a smutty farce about two film students who are supposed to make a 2 minute short for their college project but instead end up making a hardcore porn film starring Candy Fiveways (Carmen Electra) at one of their parent's home.

    Tom Riley and Tom Burke have early roles, Burke looks almost unrecognisable as the fresh faced wannabe director. Both are likeable as the naive young men who want to break into movies.

    Eddie Marsan stands out as the thuggish producer who does not want to make art. He wants to win the Golden Cock awards.

    The film is not as raunchy as the publicity implies. It is a little rude, predictable and also uneven.
