The boyfriend and I watched Hard Candy last night. He had found a Cracked article about how "if you like this movie, here is the better alternative." This was supposed to be the better alternative to Juno. We both felt really let down by this assessment. It was the kind of movie that left you hollow at the end, with barely enough care to utter "meh". Plain and simple, it was nothing more than "revenge porn". But even then, it didn't have quite the right feel. I told my boyfriend that it felt like a White Knight wrote this and was living vicariously through the teenage girl character. In fact, as I was brushing my teeth last night I made him look up the writer and see if it was a dude. It totally was. White Knight wank - I nailed it.
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
