Just watched this with my movie theatre-working friend. We both enjoyed this comedy about three women getting revenge on one man. There's his wife (Leslie Mann), his paramour (Cameron Diaz) who ends it after finding out about that wife, and the younger paramour (Kate Upton) who finds out from the previous two. Quite hilarious we both found this and nice team-up on those three. Oh, and Don Johnson appears as the father of one of those three. When his name appeared on screen, my friend says he didn't know he was in it which then made me mention that "Miami Vice" was nearly 30 years ago (though neither of us watched it much since "Dallas" was on at the same time) which then reminded us of our age especially when I then pointed out to him the placement of a couple of songs from that era as well when they were played (A cover version of Pat Benatar's "Love is a Battlefield" and Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun"). Anyway, in summary, we both found The Other Woman a lot of fun.
