contains spoilers... no matter how well done.. at times some of these films just stretch the credibility issue way too far... here we have a woman that's married to a guy she finds out really has feelings for her, but wants to have sex only with men.. (and she's been married to him for ten years !?) .. and she craves sex, so much so she sleeps with his brother a bunch of times, relishing every dalliance...getting into it hot and heavy, she then makes the decision to pack her bags and leave the gay husband for a torrid sex life with the hot brother in law... now it turns out in addition she's pregnant with the brother's kid (who BTW when finds out, immediately tells her in no uncertain terms to get an abortion).. the husband says irregardless who fathered it, he'll step up and play dad, as long as he can sleep with other men whenever he wants... now supposedly, this drop dead gorgeous, irresistible woman (can't take your eyes off her) is just going to remain content/ happy being a mom.. while the a-hole BIL is just going to remain out of sight for the remainder of the kid's life (his-kid!)... whoever dreamed up this bizarre fairytale had to be whacked out at the time on something seriously strong.. in no known universe is this EVER gonna pass believability !! ... the ultimate and most valid statement in the entire film... 'any man not craving to make love to this unbelievable woman every available minute of every day would have to be gay'..

Other reviewers said it. Well filmed but, at heart, this is no more than a telenovela. About as detached from the real world and as implausible. Child abuse, homosexuality, abortion, adultery - the film glides through it all, hardly making a wave. Zoe is pregnant but the father does not want to hear about it? No problem, her gay friend conveniently offers to be the father. Oh, that's settled, then.The actors are OK, no more. Mori is beautiful, very beautiful but one single facial emotion carries her throughout the film. To be fair, none of the actors has much of a character to work off. The gay friend is as cliché as if taken right from the Birdcage, but with no appearance of this being meant to be funny.The writer could also have paid more attention to details. The baby is called Juan Ignacio in the email sent to Gonzalo but his grandmother calls him Jose Ignacio in the following scene. Ignacio asks for Zoe Edwards at the hotel reception. They obviously know her by that name but the groom calls her Mrs. Berkley 5mn later.

The entire movie is great, the actors, the scenery, the director, everything is really great. It's a foreign movie, and i must say i expected to be a little bit ... " easy" but then i guess i was wrong. Christian MEier and BArbara Mori are great actors, and they've proved to us, again, that they can play any role, anything fits to their personality. Christian is very good looking and there's a chemistry between him and BArbara, you can see it in the movie as well. All i can say is congratulations to Jaime Baily, he did a very good job. And also congratulations to Christian, i hope ill see you more in movies . If anybody reads this before seeing the movie, try it ! It's worth it!

"La Mujer de mi hermano" tells the story of a young woman's illicit sexual reawakening by her husband's brother. The film has an alluring taboo nature, and is a feast for the eyes due to beautiful cinematography as well as a very attractive cast, lead by the gorgeous Bárbara Mori. The film takes many cues from Hollywood's best erotic thrillers (and "Unfaithful" specifically), as it interweaves suspense into the intimate moments as well as the interplay between characters. The film builds steadily with fine editing and a predictably unraveling plot to a truly disappointing finish that feels partially sappy and partially insulting.
