Did you forget how Hard Candy ended? (SPOILERS)

Posted by: MiyazakiFan on Apr 15, 19:45 in response to Antibody's post It's not the age... (spoiler)

The final line of the movie was, "Or not."  She forced him to commit suicide AND then was happy to let his secret get out.  This was after possibly castrating him, trying to hang him, tasering him countless times, etc.  In the end, she killed him.

Hit-Girl's victims were criminals too.  What's the difference?

Ebert's one-star review of KCKAS sums up exactly what I thought of the film as well. Antibody Apr 15, 12:20

hmmmm? i see similarities in this AICN critics review....though they are completely opposite on their love for the film. lobogotti Apr 15, 12:29

ha! do a Google search on morally reprehensible and see what comes up as the 2nd and 3rd links. {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 12:41

I'm pretty sure the AICN non-review is a response to Ebert. The guy's review was "find my initial thoughts here." {nm} Antibody Apr 15, 13:02

yeah...looks like it after i read it again. they went up the same day so they are on it. {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 13:05

It's that the film revels, like a pig in slop swmckewon Apr 15, 13:07

Unlike Fight Club, South Park or other films being compared to, there's no "lessons learned" at the end. {nm} Antibody Apr 15, 13:25

What's interesting... swmckewon Apr 15, 13:10

Looks like you either love it or hate it. This is what the collider saids: idrom Apr 15, 13:12

you don't know who Roger Ebert is? Siskel & Ebert....ever heard of them? lobogotti Apr 15, 13:14

Roger Ebert is pretty much unknown outside the US {nm} RogerMore Apr 15, 13:21

(and Canada) {nm} RogerMore Apr 15, 13:21

wow....I would just assume they were known worldwide, but i guess they were popular before the internet. {nm} lobogotti Apr 15, 13:29

I generally found him annoying and condenscending. {nm} tradermark Apr 15, 14:36

blablabla from an old man... {nm} Skauge Apr 15, 13:54

I tweeted this @ him.. he doesn't respond to normal people but I wonder if it will give him pause. MiyazakiFan Apr 15, 18:49

Which is followed by a scene Antibody Apr 15, 19:47

Sorry, I disagree. Most would I'm sure MiyazakiFan Apr 15, 19:58

I disagree with your statement Antibody Apr 15, 20:06
