USA Today
The biggest mystery in this wannabe thriller is why such topnotch actors would sign on for such a dreary movie that amounts to a mediocre soap opera. - 50
Los Angeles Times
Approaching the film with, let's say, lowered expectations may go a long way toward appreciating what it attempts, as well as what it achieves. - 42
Entertainment Weekly
The Other Man is self-conscious, overproduced, overacted Euro-marital hoo-ha. - 40
Time Out
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. - 40
Village Voice
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. - 40
New York Daily News
A movie needs to announce if it's playing games. Pulling the rug out from under a viewer is fine for whodunnits and psychological thrillers and the usual suspects. But a supposedly grown-up drama like The Other Man ought to have scruples about where it plans to take you. - 30
The Hollywood Reporter
Seldom has such great star power been marshaled in the service of a sillier movie than The Other Man. - 30
The New York Times
Muddled little dud of a melodrama.
