I Want Candy

About This Movie

I Want Candy is this quirky blend of comedy and drama that captures the youthful ambition of two lads from Leatherhead. The film has this low-budget charm, which is reflected in its pacing that's just right for the story it wants to tell. You can feel the frustrations of wannabe filmmaker Joe and his neurotic friend Baggy, and their interactions bring a certain freshness that's often lacking in bigger productions. There's a rawness to the performances that makes their journey feel relatable, despite the film's satirical take on the movie industry. The practical effects are also worth noting, adding a layer of authenticity. It’s this offbeat exploration of dreams and the absurdity of chasing them that gives it a unique vibe.

Interesting take on the film industry.Unique performances from the leads.Captures youthful ambition well.
