The movie shares the same agenda as many before filmed movies on drug abuse. Since the movie is not at all promoted enough, it is immensely difficult to lay a hand on it. But I and some of my friends are movie maniacs who watch all kinds of movies. Hence I write today about the Candyflip.
As the name suggests this movie is about drug abuse and what comes along at the end of it, the experiences, lies and truth.
The scenes are from Goa where many tourists come annually to get together during seasons, but a few of them choose to stay behind. The main protagonist, Roy builds a world, which I am not sure was real or fantasy because of the drugs he used, but felt like fake reality but 100% feelings, thats what the too much drugs do. His experiences are described through weird freezy and flashy and cut pieces of camera visuals which puts a strain in the eyes.
This movie is for fellow drug abusers as it gives better experiences. But I would suggest very much against even taking a drop of any drugs as I have seen in famed Manipal what drug abuse does to one person each semester- i.e. death.
There is a lot happening with the protagonist whose experiences are through colourful, hazy, fuzzy and trippy memories.There is any story in this, just the visuals which come alive if you are high, which I wasn’t. I didn’t have good time at all, as I left seat a few times to get something munching.
It is a pain watching it for this long.If you like drug wali movies like me, watch Dum Maro Dum. That movie has a roller coaster experience. This movie is waste of time and effort.
The movie is not approriate for anyone. I discourage anyone doing what Roy does in this movie. I don’t discourage Goa. visit goa with friends, family, stay away from work while you are here and have fun but don’t do drug because Drug Kills.
