01/03/2014 Beautifully written lesbian drama. Don't expect anything exciting but the story blends well and kept me wanting to find out if their love flourish. See more 07/22/2012 i hated this movie. >: ( waste of 1.5 hours of my life. See more 05/15/2011 Interesting storyline for a film base on female homosexuality. Both actresses actually did a pretty good job. See more don s 03/04/2011 My first Chinese film. A bit of an unusual topic, but decent. Interesting nuances by the actresses made the love genuine. Not complex by any means, however the pacing was fast enough to hold my interest throughout. A worthwhile introduction to films from this land. See more 01/27/2011 Watch it again... still not very impressed with the movie.. I think this movie was not my cup of tea.. See more 10/04/2010 With Splendid Float director Zero Chou got everybody's attention, which allowed her to work with both bigger budget and bigger stars in her second feature. Spider Lilies is like it's predecessor essentially a gay love story, but without making a statement about it, and a much more ambitious work, which turns out to be one of it's major faults. Chen sin-Ging is known for his ambitious screenplays, but Spider Lilies can hardly contain every subplot and existential question he asks here. Since Splendid Float, Chou also seems to have developed a taste for heavy symbolism, which makes the themes oddly distant and abstract. Luckily, some of the terrific campiness that made Splendid Float such an enjoyable movie, remains in the magnificent form of Rainie Yang's webcam hottie. See more Read all reviews
