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.

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.

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.

Uneven movie about a charming cad has sexy stuff.

1/4

Paradoxically, the single aspect of the '66 film that's wholeheartedly retained in the remake is its least realistic attribute...

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.

C-

Even Michael Caine's career would have gone nowhere if he had made this version of "Alfie."

Jude Law and his rubbish sh acting spoiled this movie.

This was something I had on the shelf for a revisit for ever and finally decided to get off the To-Watch Pile once and for all. I enjoy the original Michael Caine version quite a bit, but the Jude Law as cocksman wastrel skating by on his looks routine is also very interesting, as it's well shot and features the always delightful Nia Long as one of the women in his life. Well worth a look if you get the chance.
