The Other Woman - Great Girls' Night Movie

Monogamy is not natural, but adultery can be comical.  The Other Woman is a comedy about a woman who befriends two of her husband's mistresses, plot together to get revenge on him, and hysterics ensue.  Cameron Diaz, or Carly, is the lawyer mistress who's the brains of the operation.  Leslie Mann is the wife named Kate.  She's overly dramatic about everything and is hilarious in the process.  Kate Upton as Amber is young mistress number two with the boobs.  I really didn't understand her purpose other than to have a Sports Illustrated model for the men to ogle when their wives drag them to the movies.  

The Other Woman is clearly a star-studded movie with celebs such as Don Johnson who's gotten old enough to play Cameron Diaz's quirky yet handsome father.  Nicki Minaj is Lydia, Carly's executive assistant.  At first I thought she was going to be as pointless as Jennifer Hudson was in Sex and the City the movie, but she had some funny lines, and could speak and act about as well as Beyonce.  Take that how you want.  The cheating man, Mark, was played by Danish actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (that's the Kingslayer, Jaime Lannister, for my G.O.T. fans).  He's very handsome and suave, and you could see how women would be duped by his good looks and charm.  But, the most handsome one of them all was Taylor Kinney who is Kate's very yummy brother.  I couldn't keep my eyes off his rugged style and gorgeous eyes.  

And, speaking of style, the star of the show has to be Cameron Diaz's wardrobe, home furnishing, and decor.  EVERYTHING she wore was flawless!  I wanted EVERY item she had on her body from necklace to shoes.  It was fabulous, especially that red dress or the white one with the open back!  Let's not forget how smartly decorated her home was.  OMG!  I wish I could afford a decorator like that and a stylist like hers.  I'd be in heaven a very fabulous one.  

But, I digress.  The Other Woman is a very cute movie.  It's funny, has eye-candy, and you really are happy how it ends.  It may not be the best choice for a date night, but it'd be great for a girls' night out.  You all will enjoy it because it's laugh out loud funny, and it remind you how good it is to have a great girlfriend in your life.
