Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Candyland is not a game. After the cards have been shuffled, there is no choice. There are no random elements. The game is over once it has started. Candyland is not a game, but a dystopian world where all freedom has been removed. A world where all are born with their death already determined. There is no suspense in this move because nothing happens. The characters are nothing more than puppets. They make no choices, but they cannot be blamed for it. They never had a choice not to make a choice. Compare this to Monopoly. Although Monopoly also displays a dystopia, but this time a capitalist one, there is a point in Monopoly where the players can acknowledge what action was taken to give only player victory. This is the Pivotal Event. The Pivotal Event in Candyland is before the game even begins. Candyland is not a game. It is a horror story that the players willingly put themselves through.

I love this movie, it is excellent. I have my own D.V.D. of it. I love everything about it: acting, directing, script, production, photography and the lessons therein. I love every single character, with the exception of Lord Licorice. There are many important lessons in this movie such as: Being on time.Helping others when they are in need.Being kind and friendly.Doing what is expected of you.Being responsible.I have the game and a puzzle of it as well. This was a great idea for a movie. Destined to be a classic. Kudos to the cast, crew and filmmakers. Two Thumbs Way Up!
