The Other Woman is a semi successful femme comedy showcase hampered by its own rom com conventions, which undercut any real intelligent or insightful thematic messages. In The Other Woman, we meet attorney Carly Whitten Cameron Diaz, a powerhouse career gal who can never invest in relationships that is until she meets her perfect match in Mark King Nikolaj Coster Waldau. However, when Carly tries to surprise Mark with a kinky late night visit, shes the one who instead gets a surprise Mark has a wife named Kate Leslie Mann. At first the meeting is incredibly awkward and horrifying, but plucky Kate cant help but admire the other woman in her husbands life, and the two quickly become the weirdest friends, ever. Once united, the ladies set their sights on payback against Mark but as the dig deeper they find more lies and more mistresses like the voluptuous Amber Kate Upton hiding in the wings. Determined to bring down the man who has been stringing them along, Carly, Kate and Amber scheme to pull off a takedown for the ages if their girl power can just withstand a bad boys charm long enough. On the surface, The Other Woman seems like a traditional rom com movie with a girl power slant and in a lot of ways it attempts to be.

However, thanks to director Nick Cassavetes and a great comedic performance from Leslie Mann with some welcome aid from her co stars the movie actually manages to be more memorable and entertaining than it is on paper, despite a script that doesnt hold up as a feminist parable. Cassavetes in addition to his many acting roles is known for an eclectic blend of movies many of which achieve some kind of cult status The Notebook, John Q, Alpha Dog. The Other Woman is his most comedic effort to date, but Cassavetes definitely has the mind and eye for good comedy, staging a variety of scenes that use everything from wordplay to physical comedy and even montages in order to create a consistent air of hilarity. Because its Cassavetes who is not afraid to push into some explicit or even gory areas there is an edge that is deftly wielded to create moments of raunchy or adult humor which actually cut the funny bone deep, while still managing to teeter on the safe side of a PG 1. The look of the film and the creation of its NYC socialite world is all lavish and colorful and well staged. In other words, the movie is easy to watch. Nikolaj Coster Waldau in The Other WomanThe more problematic end of the film is undoubtedly the script from first timer Melissa Stack the latest writer plucked from Hollywoods Black List of the best screenplays yet to be produced she was on there in 2. I Want to F Your Sister, just so you have some reference. The dialogue and comedy are sharp, and conceptually the story is a nice twist on the idea of the wife vs. This is a movie which attempts to posit that three lovely, capable women being united in infatuation over one man is somehow a story of empowerment. Its an admirable claim, but one that could easily be challenged if not outright defeated based on the events of the film, the characters thin, archetypal personalities and their questionable actions. Much like Amber, The Other Woman is nice to look at and is fun to be around but it doesnt have all that much going on in the smarts department. Its never a good sign when one of your characters can reduce the situation to being an event where The lawyer, the wife and the boobs, all get together for one purpose. Leslie Mann in The Other WomanEqually true is the observation that if you were to take Leslie Mann out of this film, its fun quotient would drop exponentially. Mann has been on a tear of comedic roles The Change Up, This Is 4. She steals nearly every scene shes in and goes for comedic broke, and her character probably has the best arc of the film, displaying moments if only sporadic of vulnerability and serious adult complexity, in order to balance out her zany goofiness. Cameron Diaz brings that Bad Teacher edge to her icy career gal, and serves as a surprisingly good straight woman to Manns wacky character. The two leading ladies are actually great together, displaying chemistry, timing and commitment that make the KateCarly storyline genuinely fun and interesting to watch. Although men are the focal point of the story at every turn irony, the boys in the cast are not major players in the film. Nikolaj Coster Waldau basically phones in his Jaime Lannister Game of Thrones swagger, creating the sort of bad boy you love to hate that is necessary for this story. Chicago Fire star Taylor Kinney has to play Phil, the hunky cool brother to Manns Kate, and provides the necessary smoldering hunky stares though, as pointed out by Kate, the love story between Phil and Carly is weird in the context of this story.

Leslie Mann, Nicki Minaj, Cameron Diaz and Kate Upton in The Other WomanThe biggest casting talking point is how pop culture sensations Kate Upton and Nicki Minaj do in their first major screen roles. Uptons part is tailored to make the best of her limited range lots of simple sight gags, very little dialogue or heavy emoting meanwhile, Minaj plays a fitting but typical sassy girlfriend role, and really needs to work on enunciating her lines at times its like trying to read a ventriloquists lips. Having the pair of them in the cast is somewhat distracting, and The Other Woman is already bogged down with secondary characters and storylines, so its good that Upton and Minajs screen time is limited. Little doses go a long way in their case. In the end, The Other Woman is a semi successful femme comedy showcase hampered by its own rom com conventions, which undercut any real intelligent or insightful thematic messages, feminist or otherwise. Still, the Leslie Mann comedy showcase is alone worth watching, and her and Diaz manage to make a frenemy love story thats nearly  as worthwhile. Its not at all mandatory theater viewing, but as far as date night goes, both guys and gals will find themselves in pretty good hands with this one. TRAILERpoll id7.
