Stealing Candy

Product Description

In need of quick cash, three ex-convicts - a grifter, a computer hacker and a robber devise a cunning scheme to broadcast a live porn act online. The one time pay-per-view event could net millions, but it requires the cooperation of their star performer - a mainstream actress who knows nothing about the plot. All they have to do is kidnap the actress, scare her into performing, divert the money into a safe account, and flee the scene.

Jenya Lano is the eye "CANDY" here!.......2005-12-31

Low-budget doesn't always mean bad, and this 2002 direct-to-video effort is better than you might expect. While it has some nudity, it also has a decent plot and competent acting, so it rises above being simply a sexplotation film. In fact, the nudity and sex are minimal and tasteful, and simply required by the plot.

Three ex-cons devise the ultimate safe score; kidnap a popular actress and make millions by forcing her to have live sex on the Internet. Things don't go as planned, of course, and some neat plot twists lead to an interesting ending. Decent enough to be worth a watch.

"Stealing Candy" is another modest budget crime thriller with a twist at the end. These twists are becoming so obligatory that it is about time one of these movies tried the unexpected and did not include a twist. That would truly be a shocking ending.

Whatever budget they had for this did not translate into anything interesting from a production design perspective. A group of friends could have shot this one weekend at their homes. Technically it is a solid production although very little is attempted. The gun play looks realistic enough.

Despite having talents as enormous as Pamela Anderson's, Jenya Lano is actually a very good actress. Her scenes in "Stealing Candy" are entertaining. Lano is my all time favorite "Xena" bad girl and now has a fairly regular part on "Charmed". Unfortunately she is only on screen for about a third of the movie. Daniel Baldwin, Coolio, and Alex McArthur seem very awkward with each other.

Don't rush out to buy or rent this but it's an OK diversion.

Then again, what do I know? I'm only a child.

THREE EX-CONS [ALEX MCARTHUR, COOLIO, AND DANIEL BALDWIN] KIDNAP A FAMOUS ACTRESS WITH THE INTENT OF MAKING HER HAVE SEX LIVE ON THE INTERNET. GOOD MOVIE. HAS GOOD ACTING, GOOD SUSPENSE, AND GOOD STORY. I ADVISE SUSPENSE FANS TO GET DOWN TO THEIR LOCAL VIDEO STORE AND RENT THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID RENT THIS.
