Critic Reviews
-
Emanuel Levy, Variety
After makinh some significant indies about gay teen angst, Araki's point of departure is a below-mediocre romantic triangle picture that borrows heavily from Noel Coward, Hawks, and Cukor but without freshn insights or charm.
-
Rob Nelson, City Pages, Minneapolis/St. Paul
Allow me to make a case for a controversial filmmaker despite his inarguably awful new work, and perhaps even despite the general course of his career since 1994.
-
Michael Dequina, TheMovieReport.com
An agreeable enough watch--that is, until the film is over, when you realize that not once did you care for any of these characters.
-
Martin Scribbs, Low IQ Canadian
Splendor, purportedly a a sex farce, has had all of its joy and energy surgically removed.
-
James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette
eye-popping, provocative love triangle
