Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

loueysmith The funniest moments in this flick are the ones with John Krasinski in. It was a very mild mannered movie and if you're in the mood for something very lighthearted, you'll likely enjoy at least parts of it. If have mixed feelings on the storyline, but mostly due to it being centered around people having affairs, whether Lake Bells character was awful or not...I'll never agree with cheating. If you're unhappy, either fix it or leave...but don't cheat. Alec Baldwin's character was irritating and self-involved, he didn't much care what Meryl Streep's character wanted...he just wanted her back and was prepared to mess up the life he'd created with a child in tow (whether he's his or not, that doesn't matter, he's still only 5 years old) as well, to get it. He's basically your average stereotypical man, who's left his Older Wife for the younger model...only to later realize, he'd made a mistake. He's not the first, and won't be the last! I usually like Steve Martin in movies, but he was very uncomedic like in this and somewhat more serious. And I guess I would've hoped for some more comedy, to maybe carry the storyline a little better than it just being about an affair! Meryl Streep I've never been a big fan of and in this flick, she was no different...but, she was watchable! The whole thing was just basically, watchable.

senpaidude Really complicated. It was good but somehow felt that it went like by the book, but still without logic. Maybe better for ladies then. I enjoyed the film for the first about 90 minutes. I should have went to sleep by then, like my wife did. It's recommended movie if you stop around 30mins before it ends.

Maria Trim Loved it maybe i am easily pleased, but what a combination of talent, Steve Martin, Meryl Streep, and Alec Baldwin. Great acting good story, and i laughed a lot through out the story, especially with the laptop omg so funny a classic moment i will never forget. Meryl Streep is so beautiful and looks great for her age. Yes i enjoyed it, it kept my interest right the way through, and i am still chuckling over the laptop scene. They don't make romantic comedies like this enough as far as I am concerned, its just not complicated, it is what is on the box easy to watch cant believe i had missed it for so long but glad i have watched it now.

Python Hyena It's Complicated (2009): Dir: Nancy Meyers / Cast: Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin, Steve Martin, John Krasinski, Lake Bell: Hilarious romantic comedy about regret. Meryl Streep plays a chef and mother, and Alec Baldwin plays her ex husband who is involved in an unsuccessful relationship with a younger woman. Director Nancy Meyers springs humour from the affair between the two. Meyers is a bankable director having made such entertaining films as The Holiday and Something's Gotta Give. Streep brings out the guilt, confusion and yearning of a woman drawn back to the past. She delights in the youthful feeling of affection. Baldwin brings out the regret of his past decision and the amusement of rediscovering what he originally had. His fascination with young love turns into a demanding standoff with a son who shares his mother's sense of self. Steve Martin plays a construction contractor whom becomes involved with Streep. He is innocent but unable to sideline Baldwin's pursuits. In the end he is in the right state of mind. Other roles are pretty much cardboard mainly consisting of the couple's children who band together and hunch on the behavior of their mother and father. Amongst those is John Krasinski as Streep's son, and Lake Bell as Baldwin's wife and neither can stand against the three leads. It examines marriage and relationships and other complications. Score: 8 ½ / 10
