TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

GarnettTeenage The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

hddu10 Greg Araki's work typically ranges from campy farce to gritty shock value...but what they all have in common is low quality acting. And in "Splendor" he utilizes his usual formula of stocking his films with eye-candy in lieu of substance in an attempt to get the viewer to overlook the sub-par context and dialogue. Araki's constant theme of bi-sexuality or sex-fluidity happens to be the focal point of this film. Though the film absolutely misses the mark in actually giving the viewer a substantive premise for two men allowing themselves to be in a relationship with the same woman...and by insinuation with each other as well. As I watched it, I just didn't believe the female protagonist was that hot, compelling or desirable to "pull together" a three-way relationship with two completely disparate heterosexual men. Yes, I get this was supposed to be a fantasy...but whose?

rowboat Um, this movie wasn't so good. It started out mediocre, before dropping into bad pretty quick. I think Kathleen Robertson was beautiful and played the role right. She was the highlight. She could've easily been over-dramatic and cheesy, but she wasn't. Kudos. She must've learned something from 90210. The story should've been more about the relationship and the struggle to make it work and more sociology, but throwing the pregnancy and that movie director guy into it were just huge, uncreative cop-outs in telling the story. The writer should be ashamed.

FoxyRed Okay if you like movies with hot guys and cute chicks you have to see Splendor. Its about a girls who lives in L.A. and meets the boys of her dreams and as she strives to make things easier they just get more complicated. And with an ending that you'd love,you'll never want to return this movie back to the video store.

polarbyte Mmmm, maybe not. Two guys, one girl, and a apt. Besides the moral questions through out the entire movie of "is this healthy", you wonder why they didn't turn it into a soft porn. It is funny, you will enjoy watching it. Get's kinda cheesy towards the end. I was pleased with the directing however, and I loved how our main actress, Kathleen Robertson, looks positively radiant in her shots of playing narrator. Rent it or catch it on cable, I don't see this as something to add to the old DVD collection.
