Summary: Three is a crowd!
Review: I enjoy watching old movies and some independent films depending on the plots and titles. The title of this movie was carefully planned and wonderfully executed. It seems to be one of those "make you think" movies. The kind of movie that is on your mind long after you leave the theater. I have been waiting for it to be released to the public because I cannot wait to see it again. This is a must see. It's not a big budget movie but the people behind this film possess much potential. Look to see much from them in the future.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: TRIOS
Review: I FEEL THAT THIS FILM IS A MUST SEE IF YOUR ARE A KENYA MOORE FAN AND IF YOU LIKE SUSPENSE. I LET ALL MY FRIENDS WATCH IT ALSO AND THEY LOVED IT. ALL I CAN SAY IS IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT.

Summary: Rent this at Blockbuster, don't buy it!!!
Review: I had been meaning to see this movie, and when I discovered I had a free rental at BB, I got it. And waited, and waited for the movie to get "good." It was good people, with BAD acting. Who told Kenya Moore she can act anyway? Beautiful, without a doubt. Actress, not hardly. Their hearts were in the right place, just that the movie bit the big one. A waste of time. For a minute, I thought I was watching a late-night soft porn movie on Cinemax, where all sex scenes are "simulated." The characters were shallow and not convincing at all. Rent it, don't buy it. Better yet, wait until comes out on HBO.

Summary: been there
Review: I was on the set at Kaya when they filmed the club scene in Atlanta.. I am so glad that this film turned out as good as it did.. I met the director and Gary Dourdan and they were cool. My best friend was an extra in that secene and just being there was an awsome experience for me. The movie gets my thumbs up.

Summary: What a messed up excuse for a film!
Review: I was so incredibly disappointed by this film.

The acting was wooden (and that's insulting to trees), the filming was amateurish, the plot was paper thin - I guessed who it was three minutes into the film, and forced myself to watch the rest of it because I had paid for it.

Admittedly the only real sex scene was mildly hot, but no more than you see on normal television. This was lame with a capital L.

Wish I had saved my money and would tell anyone thinking of buying it to rent it if you must, but don't put any hard earned cash into buying it.

Going to the back of my DVD shelf to gather dust until I get round to selling it.

Big thumbs down.

Summary: An Excellent Thriller Movie
Review: I would highly recommend this must-see movie. Trois could be seen as a fantasy for most men, but be careful what you wish for. The very buxom Kenya Moore held her own as a naive wife and Gretchen Palmer's role was hot, and convincing. The movie's ending was electric and will catch you totally off guard. I'm definitely adding this movie to my DVD collection!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: ...
Review: It is my belief TROIS offers the viewer the bird's eye view into the sexual fantasies of the average man. It also allows the viewer the opportuniry to analyze each characters motives. I really enjoyed the movie and would recommend it to any woman whose man has posed the question of expanding their sexual relationship to another level. Kenya Moore, is no Grammy Award winning actress. However, she trys to stay within her character.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A Flawed "Trois" Worth Seeing
Review: Jermaine, that lucky dog. He has a new wife in the understatedly beautiful Kenya Moore, who lovingly waits for him to come home so that she can shower him with affection and whatever else he asks. He also lives in a large modern home somewhere in Atlanta and he has a job in which he is obviously well paid for sitting agonizingly at his desk all day hunched over the same set of papers hoping to have the opportunity to manage,"the Deal". Lord knows, let alone the audience, what's "the Deal. With none of this apparantly satisfying him, he feels the need to bring another woman into his bedroom in order to enhance his and his mate's sex life. Even more amazing, the woman that he pursues in this quest is not the fairest of the maidens. It's at this point I'm ready to make a call to have a contract taken out on him so that Kenya will have an opportunity at a more deserving fate.

It took the entire film for me to figure out just what Jermaine did for a living even though numerous scenes were shot in his work environment and oblique references were made. Moreover, Gary Dourdan as Jermaine, ambles throughout the film with an incessant grimace on his face as if his underwear was on too tight. As for Kenya Moore, what she lacks in acting skill she more than makes up for it in the negligee scene. The only real acting fireworks are provided by Gretchen Palmer's Jade and Solomon K Smith as Terrence. My other gripes include the sex scene which lacked the passion I expected and the inadequately researched and staged courtroom scenes, not to mention the hammy supporting acting.

Having said all of that I must admit that I actually enjoyed watching the film "Trois". It once again brought home the message of be careful what you wish for because you just might get it. Successful in his quest to introduce his wife to the experience of a threesome, Jermaine endures a series of unexpected consequences that offers some very interesting and suprising plot twists that help the movie overcome some of its deficiencies.

Given the paucity of vehicles in the creative marketplace for African-American filmmakers and actors, it's great to see efforts such as this even when they fall short. Personally, I'm always happy to see a Black film that's "Not'N The Hood". Consequently, "Trois" with all of its faults is definitely not a crowd.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Girls day out!
Review: My buddies and I made a special day of eating lunch, and going to Magic Johnson's movie theater to see this movie called TROIS.

Let me tell you the place was packed full of people and everyone within ear shot let it be known that they enjoyed the movie. My friends and I talked about the movie so much that many of our co-workers went to see it.

I am going to get it on DVD and we are going to have another girls weakened and watch the alternate ending. Can't wait!

Sure it wasn't the best acting in the world nor the best quality production that I've ever seen- however, with more support from the public, films like this will eventually get the financial backing they deserve. It was very nice to see a movie with a twist, and a twist, and another twist!
