I loved Raven with the brown hair, she should keep that. But it's not meant to be a groundbreaking film, just a film to give Disney a cash surplus and a few cheap laughs.
It worked though, it's made $46,547,251 in the box office, it became so popular in the USA and the Phillipines that Disney extended it's run in both countries. I think once the UK, Australia, Italy, and Venezuala releases come, it'll make at least near 55 or 60,000,000 depending on if Disney promotes it like they did here.
So actually 'Hard Candy', your sarcasm soaked thread title is actually correct. Regardless of the reviews, it's making that cash.
oh, except for the release date.
