Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 17, 2011

A manipulative bore of a film. Liam Neeson is better than this and so are you.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Oct 24, 2010

A good character study lost in the haze of bad thriller gimmickry.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 11, 2010

Strangely inhospitable, perhaps better appreciated three margaritas into a Sunday afternoon Lifetime film festival than a critical Friday night rental.

| Original Score: C- | Dec 7, 2009

Its plotting leans more toward silly, soap opera-ish machinations, and while Banderas is as charming as ever, there are a couple of crucial bits of miscasting.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 29, 2009

A turgid tale of adultery among the rich and boring.

| Original Score: C- | Sep 29, 2009

The result is B-grade cheese. The only genuine mystery, for me, is why such a fine cast signed on for such a witless movie.

| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 25, 2009

Everyone seems as if they're going through the motions.

It was directed by British theater director Richard Eyre, who knows how to line up the shots but not how to make us feel the compulsive hunger that drives Peter to the brink of a very tidy, stiff-upper-lip breakdown.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 25, 2009

Despite the gimlet eye of Richard Eyre, former director of England's Royal National Theatre, and the top-echelon talents of an impressive cast, a dreary, disabled disaster called The Other Man drops dead at the starting gate.

Full Review | Sep 23, 2009

Despite the cast, which is very good, you never feel like they're really taking on a life of their own.

Full Review | Sep 15, 2009

It owes its air of mystery to a piece of narrative trickery that's both obnoxiously manipulative and insultingly obvious.

Full Review | Sep 15, 2009

A skewed psychological thriller revolving around the many forms of betrayal.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Sep 14, 2009

A contrived, poorly crafted, sophomoric and bland thriller that can't even be saved by its stellar cast.

| Original Score: 4.5/10 | Sep 12, 2009

Stagy to a fault, and painfully uneventful, "The Other Man" suffocates from the pitiable writing at hand.

| Original Score: D | Sep 12, 2009

Near the end, Peter issues this verdict on his romantic rival, "Appalling...but also rather wonderful." Applied to the film itself, he's half right.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 11, 2009

A supposedly grown-up drama like The Other Man ought to have scruples about where it plans to take you. Trickiness for its own sake is simply a cheat.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 11, 2009

It's a decent adult drama that should keep you guessing.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 11, 2009

An oddly affecting drama offers much food for thought on the after-effects of adultery and the toxin that can wither our soul when we are overtaken by jealousy.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 11, 2009

The sexual temperature remains a safe, nap-inducing 98.6.
