Seldom has such great star power been marshaled in the service of a sillier movie than The Other Man.

Everything from the script to the film’s score seems stock, and echoes of past victories--Eyre’s dissection of infidelity in "Notes on a Scandal," Neeson and Linney’s chemistry in "Kinsey"--only remind you of what these talents are capable of when the stars actually align.

The Other Man is self-conscious, overproduced, overacted Euro-marital hoo-ha.

The New York Times by Stephen Holden

Muddled little dud of a melodrama.
