The film wends its way through three cities and three tales. The various stories, situated in Paris, Rome, and New York, are, at first glance, all separate, but Haggis effortlessly makes connections among them as the film unwinds, concentrating on three men and their romantic entanglements.

Critics Consensus: Third Person finds writer-director Paul Haggis working with a stellar cast and a worthy premise; unfortunately, he fails to fashion a consistently compelling movie out of the intriguing ingredients at his disposal.

David Nusair

...the picture moves far too slowly to wholeheartedly capture the viewer's attention and interest.

This mammoth of interrelatedness is uncomfortable, unwieldy, and so insistently labyrinthine that it quite literally chokes the life out of itself.

It's a clever idea, and very enjoyable in places, but it doesn't quite come off and after the high emotion and drama the characters have been wrenched through, the resolution feels sadly anti-climactic.

The revelation that makes sense of all this is clever and actually ties in to the film's themes nicely, but by the time we get there we're so depleted it barely leaves an impression.

The cast could not have been better, pushing this already intense script into very strong territory.
