An unfaithful husband (Liev Schreiber) falls back in love with his wife (Jeanne Tripplehorn) over the phone when she pretends to be someone else.

One of those projects whose very existence should baffle anyone hardy enough to endure all 94 minutes.

Slant Magazine

In its elliptical presentation of its characters' lives, brings to mind the latter-day films of Philippe Garrel, but Kees Van Oostrum's genre experimentation aligns him with Paul Verhoeven.

Rated: 3/4

It's a confusing, awkward picture, though Man has its fair share of compelling incidents. Just not nearly enough of them to make the effort shine.

Rated: C-

Flat and uninteresting, both visually and dramatically, this is a waste of two appealing actors.

Too bland to inspire strong feelings of any kind.

This movie was predictable, so unoriginal. I kept waiting for something interesting to happen. Boring. Though it did portray what most men are truly like. Also, the mother should have slapped the lips off her son's face when he started using "F" bombs while talking to her.

This movie was so drab...I thought it would never end. There was nothing of substance to keep me engaged and I often found my mind drifting to other things.

VERY sad movie - WHY do men cheat?? This was a movie with great acting and amazing chemistry but it was very, very sad. It is not one you would ever watch more than once.

There is no perfect man. They're all dogsâ?¦ and think of only one thingâ?¦ always. Just like this movie. Sad and pathetic. Jeanne Tripplehorn is the only bright light in a depressing tale.
