December 16, 2009Liam Neeson plays a man who suspects his wife (Laura Linney) of adultery. So he tracks down the man she was having an affair with, played by Antonio Banderas.
The movie makes it look like she just disappeared, so through half the movie I was frustrated that Neeson wasn't t...( read more) -
May 10, 2009Interesting take on love and infidelity, but ultimately kind of boring. It feels as though nothing's really happening, but that actually kind of makes it a more logical story and outcome...so it's sort of a draw for my overall opinion.

December 14, 2009I could not really get into the story at all. All of the actors are good, and seeing Liam Neeson on a revenge kick is always fun, but the story they were telling wa noy for me.

Antonio Banderas, he's hot, as always. But i didn't know, i felt dislike him in this movie. Maybe because of the char...( read more) -
October 25, 2009A watchable drama that maybe hated by some and liked by others but sure will not be loved or favorited by the majority who watched it. Thats due to the lack of originality and the slow pace that made it fall in the trap of boredom many times. Also,the plot had many in common with...( read more)

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

Claudia Puig, USA Today
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 con... full review

Armond White, The New York Press
As the pathetic, decent lothario, Banderas lacks sexual threat just as the script's various miscommunications lack Pinter menace. Neeson is too rough-hewn for the conflicted cuckold. full review
