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.

Reviews for Splendor
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.
01/03/09
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.
02/09/07
Splendor, purportedly a a sex farce, has had all of its joy and energy surgically removed.

It's far from great, has nothing remotely memorable about it and suffers from a certain derivativeness.
