Editorial Review: Description: From the director of Fatal Attraction comes "a steamy thriller" (People Magazine) about physical passion so intense, it consumes everything - and everyone - in its path. Edward and Connie Summer (Richard Gere, Diane Lane) have the perfect life: a happy marriage, an eight year old son, and a beautiful house in the suburbs. But when Connie's chance encounter with a handsome stranger (Olivier Martinez) erupts into a full-blown affair, desire becomes obsession, and the true price of betrayal takes a shattering toll. Pulsing with heart-pounding suspense and erotic thrills, Unfaithful is "sexy", stylish and seductive!" (Wireless Magazine) Amazon.com: If you ever need dramatic proof that adultery is inevitably destructive, look no further than Adrian Lyne's Unfaithful. Drawing inspiration from Claude Chabrol's 1969 film La Femme Infidèle, the director of Fatal Attraction is mining similar territory here, but this grownup thriller is more intimate than Lyne's dead-bunny potboiler, probing more deeply into the rush of conflicting emotions provoked by infidelity. In what many critics praised as the role of her career, Diane Lane plays the instigator of emotional turmoil, a seemingly happy housewife and fundraiser who cheats on her devoted husband (Richard Gere, in a welcomed change of pace) when she casually encounters a seductive Frenchman (cliché alert!) played by Olivier Martinez. Allowing his actors to speak volumes without words, Lyne emphasizes silent tension over explicit thrills, creating a sexually charged thriller that remains riveting even as it turns partially predictable. "Someone always gets hurt," says one character in a pivotal scene, and Unfaithful fulfills that prophesy in a timeless tale of passion. --Jeff Shannon Average Rating:
 Rating: - Marie's ReviewI'm a big Richard Gere fan. And he doesn't dissappoint me in this movie. It's a good drama with a surprise. It's worth seeing and I enjoyed it very much- one of Richard's finer moments. Rating:  - YOU FEEL WHAT SHE'S FEELING, THE LOVE, THE PAINTHIS IS A MOVIE YOU NEVER GET TIRED OF , EACH TIME YOU SEE IT, YOU FEEL HER INFATUATION, AND LOVE FOR TWO MEN, HER LOVER AND HER HUSBAND. SHE FINDS OUT HER HUSBAND KNOWS, AND THEN THAT HE MUST HAVE BEEN THE ONE WHO KILLED HER LOVER. SHE GRIEVES FOR BOTH. THE ENDING LEAVES YOU HANGING AS TO WHAT THE OUTCOME IS, BUT AT THE SAME TIME YOU KNOW WHAT THEY HAVE TO DO TO MAKE IT RIGHT. IT'S GREAT ACTING BY BOTH DIANE AND RICHERD GERE. i DON'T USUALLY BUY MOVIES BUT i'M BUYING THIS ONE. Rating: - [4.5] It always ends in disasterI really enjoy this film, even after multiple vewings it is still effective. The key is great performances with attention to detail, especially from Diane Lane. The story too, is well written, also bringing out attention to details and the affair is just half of the tale, as an unexpected event turns things around half-way through the film, releasing a lot of tension, suspision, and unfaithfulness. One might expect that Unfaithful is about a wife cheating on her husband (been done ... Read More Rating:  - My allegiance is slightly unfaithful...My defiant support of this film was probably spawned from the atrocity that was Diane Lane's Oscar loss back at the 2002 Academy Awards. Yes, Nicole Kidman is a great actress who delivered a decent portrayal of Virginia Woolf, but honestly, there was not one performance in any category that year that rivaled that of Diane Lane. Over the years though I have been able to separate my love for her performance from my feelings towards the film, and what I've found is that this movie as a whole misses ... Read More Rating: - not too believable and the ending... ack!First off, I really didn't like Richard Gere in the droopy role of the poor schmuck married to a woman with zero emotional predictability; he was pretty lame. No cavalier sparkle in his eyes, no look of intellectual sharpness, no decent dialogue, no game; just Gere as Captain Baggy Pants who ends up going to his kid's play with a dead body in the trunk of his car in the school parking lot and later hides a man's body under two bags of garbage. There were a lot of sweaters in this movie. ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
