Review of The Other Woman (2014) by Nicki M — 25 Jul 2014

Definitely weaker than I expected, but worth at least one watch. Was it just me, or should whoever did the wardrobe have been sacked? Cameron Diaz in particular looked awful in most of the outfits. It was like they were going for wealthy, middle aged frump, when she was meant to be a successful and attractive career woman. The young mistress also liked pretty dowdy and even dumpy in most of her outfits.

Well, probably says a lot about the story if I noticed the clothes so much.

The story is pretty basic - the wife and two mistresses (one of whom didn't realise the guy was married) find out about each other, and rather than get in a cat fight, they become friends and set out to punish the womaniser.

It should have been funnier than it was, though it had a few moments. The scene in the office with the blood and the smashed window felt like too much and not believable.

Glad I finally saw it, but was expecting it to be better.
