British-born ladies' man Alfie (Jude Law) exploits his job as a New York City limousine driver to meet and sleep with attractive women -- which infuriates his pseudo-girlfriend Julie (Marisa Tomei), a single mom. His libertine lifestyle is interrupted, however, when his girl-crazy ways end up hurting his best friend, Marlon (Omar Epps). Desperate, Alfie attempts a go at monogamy with the ravishing Nikki (Sienna Miller), but even her good looks aren't enough to keep him out of trouble for long.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

This unnecessary remake wants Alfie to have his cake and eat it, too, but a lack of sexual fizz and a sour performance by Jude Law conspire to deliver audiences a romantic comedy that isn't romantic or funny.

Will Self London Evening Standard The weakness is the script (by Elaine Pope, who won an Emmy for Seinfeld and should've done better). It isn't funny, it isn't clever and it certainly isn't profound. Dec 26, 2017 Full Review Nell Minow Common Sense Media Uneven movie about a charming cad has sexy stuff. Rated: 2/5 Sep 9, 2010 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 3/5 Apr 1, 2006 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens Unpredictably fun, endlessly entertaining, intelligent and full of heart, [Alfie] is the surprise of the season; and one where you won't find yourself asking "What's it all about" when the curtain falls. Nov 6, 2019 Full Review Felix Vasquez Jr. Cinema Crazed Just as forgettable as the original. Apr 29, 2009 Full Review Cole Smithey ColeSmithey.com Even Michael Caine's career would have gone nowhere if he had made this version of "Alfie." Rated: C- Apr 15, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews
