	Author	Review
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"'The Other Woman' often feels stranded between gross-out comedy, romantic fantasy and distaff psychodrama in a way that compels fascination and impatience alike."	NEU
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"It would have helped if director Nick Cassavetes had something resembling a sure hand at comedy."	NEU
United States	Sara Stewart New York Post	"Mann and Diaz give it their all, and you can see how they might be a good comic team with better material. (...) Rating: ★ (out of four)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Anna Smith Time Out	"Instead of updating the genre, 'The Other Woman' rehashes it, bringing little more than a few giggles and a dash of glamour to the table. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"	NEU
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"The vapid story -- and its intended humor -- meanders and loses its way in predictable sit-com style. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)"	NEU
United States	Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune	"'The Other Woman' offers roughly equal parts wit and witlessness. (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"	POS
United States	Stephen Holden The New York Times	"Dumb, lazy, clumsily assembled and unoriginal."	NEG
