A couple weeks ago I went to see It's Complicated (If you don't know that this is the latest Meryl Streep movie that also includes Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin, you aren't allowed to call yourself a movie fan, sorry!)
I love this movie! It's funny, sharp, witty and quick. Meryl, Alec and Steve just don't care anymore and go all out with this movie. Which is so much fun to watch. And it certainly doesn't degrade their acting, because you hardly ever get to see one of them acting better. Normally I find Steve Martin a bit annoying. He always jumps at the opportunity of a joke and I find that frustrating. But he managed to control himself in this movie and was only funny at the right times. Like this amazing scene where Meryl and Steve smoke pot and then go to a party. At this party they act all giggly and hilariously funny.
Another great character was Meryl's son-in-law. He discovered the affair that was going on between Meryl and Alec and did everything in his power to prevent anyone else finding out, but also to prevent them finding out that hé knows. This leads to a lot of funny moments as well, which he did superbly.
I know I mentioned funny quite a lot, but you shouldn't put this movie in the same category as You Me And Dupree or Couples Retreat. It's more sophisticated than that.
Well hope y'all see it!
