Title: She's Hot. Film's Not.
Product review: STEALING CANDY is high concept, low-quality junk. It's from the director of COMMANDO (mid-80's hit with Schwartzeneger), which was also junk, and seeing how far Mark Lester has fallen is no surprise.The plot I'm sure looked great on B-movie paper, and the promise of getting the attractive Jenya Lano to shed her clothes and go at it on camera probably is what has propelled this to direct-to-dvd hit. And you do get to see Ms. Lano in all her gorgeous glory. If that's what you're after, purchase away.But the rest of the movie is basically a limp life-support system for this one commercial element. Stupid twists and terrible scene-chewing abound. To be clear, it's not horridly unprofessional in it's execution. This is a compotently made film, technically. But creatively, it's sad. Best to rent this and just fast-forward to the boobies, if that's indeed what one is after.
