It’s Complicated is easily the funniest darn movie I have seen in a very long time! Anyone who misses this move will be sorry.
The show is pretty much about what the commercials portray it as. Meryl Streep use to be married to Alec Baldwin. He cheated on her with a young bombshell, they got divorced and he married the bombshell. After a night of drinking, the two hook up and end up having a good ole time. Baldwin eventually professes his desire to continue a romantic relationship with Meryl Streep’s character.
I have to admit that I was a little unsure about it at first. I know it had a stellar cast in Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin, and Steve Martin, but I was not too sure that a movie about old people fooling around was something that was going to really be entertaining.
The show was easily one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Baldwin and Streep played their roles well and although Steve Martin was not in the show much, he did well with the scenes he had. John Krasinki, however, practically steals the show from these three Hollywood icons.
There is one scene where John’s character, Harley who is getting married to Jane’s (Meryl Streep) daughter sees Jake (Baldwin) check into the hotel where they happen to be meeting with a wedding planner. A few moments later he sees Jane at the front desk also; he freaks when he sees the two meet at the elevator and kiss. Not too long after that he sees a doctor check in at the front desk and assumes the worse. He excuses himself to the lobby and freaks out until he sees the doctor come down and give him the thumbs up. By some miracle he manages to misdirect his future wife through the whole sordid affair.
What really makes the show comes a little later. Jake had left a joint in Jane’s bathroom. A little anxious about her date with Adam (Steve Martin) she lights up. Adam picks her up to go to her son’s graduation party at Harley and Lauren’s place and is just a little uncomfortable until he learns why. The two of them decide to light up when they get to the party. Jake gets mad when he realizes Jane lit up without him so the two got to the bathroom where Harley end up walking in on them. After a brief moment of outrage he joins in with them. Even if you have never smoked in your life you can see where this could be hilarious.
My description does not do this movie justice, but I got to tell you that this was one of the absolute funniest collection of scenes I have ever seen. For this series of events alone I would recommend this movie.
