When the wife and mistresses joined forces to avenge the man they all thought that was loyal to only each of them, The Other Woman is anchored by the comic tandem of Cameron Diaz and most especially Leslie Mann who brought excellent chemistry as the intelligent yet unsuspecting mistress Carly and the clueless yet sweet wife Kate.
When the two discover that their playboy of a man Mark played by Game of Thrones' Nicholas Coster-Waldau has another girl: young,sexy and voluptuous Amber played by model Kate Upton, Carly and Kate became their friend and unexpectedly bond to plot his downfall.
We have seen The Other Woman before thru She-Devil with Meryl Streep and Roseanne Barr and most notably the box office hit The First Wives Club starring Bette Midler, Goldie Hawn and Diane Keaton but the movie is saved from the wonderful Leslie Mann, whom I always find to be a comic genius in films such as Knocked Up, The 40 Year Old Virgin and many more. It helps that she's married to comedy director Judd Apatow. Her moments in the film are the ones the shine the brightest in The Other Woman.
The film also stars singer Nicki Minaj in her film debut as Carly's secretary with great one liners, Zero Dark Thirty's Taylor Kinney as Kate's brother and Don Johnson as Carly's Dad.
