AUDIENCE SCORE
User Ratings: 3,491
Rating: 2.5/4 -- With champion bloodlines from Walken and Farrow, "Dark Horse" could have been a contender, but it gets so skittish about trodding a familiar path that it pulls up lame. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- With situations less merciless than in his previous films, Dark Horse allows you to give in to the writer-director's dark humor without feeling nearly so guilty. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/5 -- For once, Solondz seems less interested in scoring points off his characters than in creeping into their shy, sad interior worlds. Full Review

3 stars out of 5 -- He's either daring you not to laugh or daring you not to care, but either way, you'll laugh, care and worry about the consequences in DARK HORSE, the newest by uggo-auteur Todd Solondz.

Rating: 4/5 -- That Gelber can make Abe appealing in any way is a triumph. That Solondz can orchestrate such a feat is an even bigger one. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Though Dark Horse offers plenty of laughs, in no way is this a film in the wake of Hollywood man-child comedies... There's no easy resolution to Abe's situation and the audience is not really rooting for him to get the girl and the happy ending. Full Review

DARK HORSE is perhaps Solondz's most straightforward movie....[It finds] the director engaging with his favourite theme: suburban loneliness.

Product Description:

Todd Solondz's black comedy DARK HORSE stars Jordan Gelber as Abe, a thirtysomething loser still living with mom and dad, and employed at his father's company, even though he would rather spend his time buying toys online. He meets Miranda (Selma Blair), and tries repeatedly to go on a date with her. When he finally succeeds in this endeavor, he asks her to marry him. Soon she has given him hepatitis, and Abe goes through a series of hallucinations involving his father's secretary. DARK HORSE played at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival.
