Editorial Review:

Description:
Oscar®-nominee Heath Ledger stars as Dan, a charming but reckless young poet who falls in love with Candy (Abbie Cornish), a beautiful young student who is attracted to his bohemian lifestyle. In order to get closer to Dan, Candy joins him in his drug addiction. Their passionate relationship then alternates between bursts of ecstatic oblivion and bouts of despair and self-destruction. Hooked as much on heroin as one another, their story becomes an intense love triangle – a boy, a girl, and a drug.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - So Much Love
I picked up this movie because I love the actor Heath Ledger. I was thrilled with this movie the entire time I watched it. It was definately something new for me in the way of a drug movie, but it wasn't completely about the heroin. It was also about love. There was love for each other, and love of the drug. Through the entire movie the viewer is left to figure out which love is paramount.

Heath did an amazing job portraying Dan. And Abbie Cornish did a very good job playing the title ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic movie!
I absolutely adored this movie. I consider myself very picky when it comes to movies, but I really enjoyed this one. I was hesitant to like it, not a huge Abbie Cornish fan, but I really like Heath Ledger and Geoffrey Rush. This film really sucks you into a lifestyle. If you are squemish about nudity or language, this film is not for you, I however am just fine with those charactaristics in a movie, and could look past them to see the bigger picture. I enjoyed the artistry and the symbolism used in ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Everlasting love in a vial
'Candy' is an Australian film, a love story between two junkies. The movie divides itself into three parts: Heaven, Earth, and He||. Dan (played by talented and memorable Heath Ledger - RIP Heath) and Candy (Abbie Cornish) have a love that's true. Their highs are high and their lows are low. At one point, after spiking up and nodding off during their wedding reception at Candy's parents, they sit outside McDonald's sipping chocolate shakes and declaring "We're the coolest people at McDonald's". ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An Absolutely Beautiful Movie
I finally got the chance to watch "Candy" with Heath Ledger (R.I.P. Heath) and Abbie Cornish and I loved it. Very intense. You can't help but fall in love and feel the emotions of these characters as they go through the struggles of drug addiction, love, life and loss. I am so glad I have added this to my movie collection.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Heath Ledger was the Joker.
Listen - The bottom line is this:

I have not watched "Candy" yet, nor do I plan to. I bought it because Heath Ledger played the Joker in one of the best movies ever made (The Dark Knight) and I wanted to let you all know... in case you hadn't heard.
