The Other Man Ratings & Reviews
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
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.
Dallas Morning News
Cary Darling
Everyone seems as if they're going through the motions.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
It's a decent adult drama that should keep you guessing.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
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.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
The sexual temperature remains a safe, nap-inducing 98.6.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
The screen version of Bernhard Schlink's short story The Other Man does not deliver. The secret at the heart of the film, after all the fractured narrative convolutions, is anti-climactic, and the conclusion is strained and awkward.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
The Other Man is self-conscious, overproduced, overacted Euro-marital hoo-ha.
Slant Magazine
Adam Keleman
The film is filled with good-on-paper moments that build up and slowly tighten like a knot but usually end in a whimper.
Observer
Rex Reed
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.
At the Movies
Michael Phillips
Despite the cast, which is very good, you never feel like they're really taking on a life of their own.
At the Movies
A.O. Scott
It owes its air of mystery to a piece of narrative trickery that's both obnoxiously manipulative and insultingly obvious.
Village Voice
Ella Taylor
It hurts to see a terrific cast (including the lovely and intelligent young Irish actress Romola Garai as the couple's quietly seething daughter) squandered on such dreary filmmaking.
The Hollywood Reporter
Peter Brunette
Seldom has such great star power been marshaled in the service of a sillier movie than The Other Man.
Variety
Robert Koehler
The promising intrigue of a husband's bullheaded obsession with his wife's lover falls flat in The Other Man, directed with an indifferent hand by Richard Eyre.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
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.
SSG Syndicate
Susan Granger
A skewed psychological thriller revolving around the many forms of betrayal.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A contrived, poorly crafted, sophomoric and bland thriller that can't even be saved by its stellar cast.

Cole Smithey
Stagy to a fault, and painfully uneventful, "The Other Man" suffocates from the pitiable writing at hand.
Boxoffice Magazine
John P. McCarthy
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.
