Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Brainsbell The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.
Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
gavin6942 The story of a husband (Liam Neeson) who suspects his wife (Laura Linney) of adultery, and sets out to track down the other man (Antonio Banderas) in her life.Frankly, I was not all that impressed with this film. What redeems it is the strong performances from both Neeson and Banderas, who could eat up screen time and entertain just by the way they deliver their lines. The game between them is tense and emotional, but also well-crafted.The actual plot was just alright. I do not know that it was handled in the way we might expect a love triangle to be handled, and if the way it was happened to be the right way at all.
Thanos Karagioras In this movie the main thing that you can understand from the start of the movie is the loneliness which dominates. As we can also observe in this movie that Liam Neeson who plays the cheated husband, he plays really great and we see that his playing is different from other times. So as Antonio Banderas does who is the lover of his wife (Laura Linney)."The Other Man" is not some special movie that you will watch and you will be speechless or something like that, but it's a movie that show us the loneliness that feels a person and the pain of this loss. It also show us the difference of behavior between the people and how people manage such a difficult issue.
Desertman84 In The Other Man, it features Liam Neeson and Antonio Banderas as competitors for a woman's love in Laura Linney. It was written and directed by Richard Eyre.When Peter discovers evidence of an affair on his wife's laptop, he tracks down the other man in Milan and stalks him. But though there are taut moments of suspense, the movie's emphasis is on watching Peter's mind unravel and seeing the damage this does to his daughter Abigail.The film is talky, witless, and tension-free despite best efforts of the talented lead stars.Also,it suffers from some confusing editing and a few implausibilities, but the main reason it languishes in obscurity is that it defies the usual expectations of a thriller. It could have been a fascinating case study as it is, it's intriguing but fails to fully satisfy.But nevertheless, Neeson is, as ever, compelling.In addition to that,it is beautifully shot on location in Milan and Lake Como as well as in London.
vs-sv27 Today,while i was checking on TV guide for any movie, i seen on Zee studio shows this film ,i got exited about title of the film "The Other Man"it sounds interesting to me. so,i saw the film it was good and cool.i don't understand why other hate it. Liam Neeson is excellent actor and did every scene well. Antonio Banderas was fantastic .There is a lot going on in this movie, all under the surface. I kept wondering if it would revert to the standard murder scenario, that was the suspense for me. The outcome was real, not Hollywood. Laura Linney is sexy. i hope you will enjoy this flick.I highly recommend you watch it a second time with the director's commentary turned on—but not the first time; it gives too much away. You may want to watch it a third time.
