The Man with My Husband's Face

Sorry guys, you missed the mark on this one. Slow moving, drawn out scenes due to thin storyline, disjointed, predictable, offensive, and unappealing leads. The only appealing character, a lawyer, was quickly written out of the story. There was one line that was quite offensive. It was spoken by a black character who ran a kayak shop "I am normally loathe to involve the boys in blue, but..." why would she ever be "loathe" to involve cops? Is Lifetime endorsing the belief that cops seek to hurt innocent people? Why would you include a line like that in a Lifetime movie? I'm going to have to take a break from Lifetime after this fail.

The Man with My Husband's Face is a quietly gripping thriller that unfolds with just the right balance of suspense and emotional depth. The story follows a woman whose husband disappears during a kayaking trip-presumed drowned. But when she glimpses a man who looks exactly like him, it sets off a slow-burning unraveling of everything she thought she knew.

Koko Marshall is outstanding in the lead role-she brings a grounded intensity to the character, portraying grief, confusion, and determination in a way that feels deeply human. Her emotional range anchors the film, and she makes even the most surreal twists feel believable.

Tom Gipson (credited as Jacob) plays his role with a subtle charm and ambiguity, keeping us guessing at every turn. Katrina Grierson and Katie Page provide excellent support, while Prisca Geddings and Benjamin David Dennis round out the cast with strong, believable performances that add texture to the story.

There's a quiet elegance to the pacing-it doesn't rely on loud jump scares or flashy reveals. Instead, it invites you into a psychological mystery, one that plays out more like a puzzle than a spectacle. It's about grief, identity, trust-and what happens when those things collide.

This film will especially appeal to fans of character-driven mysteries and psychological dramas. With its layered performances and compelling central mystery, The Man with My Husband's Face is a thoughtful and satisfying watch that stays with you long after the credits roll.

Katrinas husband jackob, goes missing during a kayak trip and is pursumed drowned, so when she thinks she sees him the local police wont believe her. I will say parts of these film seemed very unrealistic and predictable. The actress playing katrina was believable. The guy playing the detective was not still a good actor but I did not believe him as a detective. Jackob always seems a bit off but what I dont understand is that the poor lawyers death is never explored as if he was murdered and it added nothing to the plot what so ever. But either way the man with my husbands face has a good plot but just to predicatble but fun to watch.

This was pretty good for a Lifetime mystery/thriller. I didn't find it predictable at all, and was surprised by the twists all the way up to the end.

The only problem I had with this movie is that throughout the entire thing, Katrina never had one shred of actual proof. She had her own eyewitness account, but it was still her word against theirs, and there was already a question of her sanity.

Even at the end, where was the proof that any crime had been committed, especially since as other reviewers pointed out, the part about the attorney was just dropped.

I thought the cop was going to come in with some breakthrough information, but nope. He only showed up at the house when he noticed Katrina escaped from the little holding room. Still with absolutely no proof, the cop at the end says "I still can't believe everything you were saying was true..."

Also if the cops put everybody who appears delusional in for a 72 hour hold, the hospitals would be overflowing. Katrina was raving, but not a danger to herself or anyone else.

But aside from those plot holes the story was pretty good.

This movie had some merit but honestly, if you thought the husband drowned why is the kayak and his lifevest on the shore??? It was a little too easy to guess what was really going on. But did the editors forget that they had a murdered attorney??? What was the point of murdering the lawyer? After murdering him we never see him found or anything. It's like someone edited the movie but forgot all about the dead lawyer. This will now haunt me until someone else says yeah what about the dead lawyer???

Also, it was a clear clue when this woman pops up to collaborate with the wife but tells her not to talk to the police. And on and on with lame clues.
