L'Infidélité de Lily

This is a watchable movie, if you have nothing else to do for an hour or two and don't want to do a lot of thinking. Most of the screen time is given to Rachel Hunter, who is not at all hard on the eyes and who is fully capable of registering the various degrees of stress (disappointment, confusion, anxiety) that are called for a wife who has a one-night stand and finds herself stalked by her new paramour. As for the story, it is no more than an endless series of clichés. The direction, too, is as clichéed as the script, with the so-called scary parts done the same way we've seen them done in thousands of movies before. I actually fast-forwarded through the scary parts because they were so tiresome. But if your choice is this movie or Wheel of Fortune or some sit-com re-run, choose the movie.

The movie, in principle, has a lot of potential, but falls flat very quickly. The actor portraying Grayson, an apparent psychopath, is totally incapable of proper role portrayal, never really developing the character into something believable. The plot/script are muddled with numerous holes that are obvious through quick fixes in script that make no sense. The um movie doesn't really resolve itself, an ending that doesn't tie up all the loose ends.

First odd thing you'll notice about this promising plot is Rachel Hunter's unconvincing American accent. It's so unstable and so bad when it's off that you wonder who thought it was necessary to make the movie work. Probably an American who finds foreign accents strange? Then you'll find that the women in this world have nothing better to do than spread their legs for the hot teacher. Yep, all the women have one taste and they have nothing better to do, including the married ones. Then there are the stupid decisions requisite of a slasher horror film, but this is supposed to be a psychological thriller. Well, I guess the writer couldn't find a way to make the story work otherwise.

And of course there's the title. The plot is more sympathetic to the woman than the title would suggest, though.

The two leads vie to steal the show.

Probably the female wins though it's a close call!

Wife believes her husband being unfaithful, so she is seduced by her son's teacher who happens to be totally deranged and crazy.

The user ratings here are terrible, but frankly this movie is not so bad and had me mainly engaged to the end.

Easy to be critical but in my opinion a watchable yarn and some good performances from most of the cast.

A positive aspect is how the film portrays the madness of the baddie by illustrating how he sees another person when he looks at the goodie.

Clearly a sign of insanity.

The picture lacks originality especially at the conclusion so six and a half but deduct half a mark, hence:

6/10.

Even by LMN standards this movie was a complete disaster! Every aspect of it was amateurish especially the script. There were so many plot holes, one has to imagine that a lot of film was left on the editing room floor. As far as the plot, it's your typical storyline of a wife who suspects her husband of cheating so she cheats herself. The only problem though is the script is written so badly that nothing in the entire movie makes any sense. The acting was some of the worst I've ever seen. Everyone involved in making this movie must have been embarrassed with the finished product. It's had to believe that after viewing this that LMN allowed it to be air rather that tossing it in the trash can.
