Review of It's Complicated (2009) by Dawdlingpoet — 26 Nov 2021

This is a light, easy watch. Its quite funny, in a gentle amusing sort of a way. It does feature a number of sex references and there are one or two brief sex scenes present, so if your not keen on that sort of thing then you may wish to avoid this I suppose. I thought there seemed a good chemistry between the main cast, primarily Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin. I also watched it as Steve Martin is in it too and I've enjoyed the other comedy films he's been in that I've seen. He isn't in this film as much as in others, his character is more of a supporting character but thats ok. I enjoyed the visual comedy, the slapstick aspects and I didn't feel that it was an unnecessarily tacky film, as the plot does bring up the inevitable moral/ethical questions relating to potentially having an affair.

Overall this is a light hearted, amusing watch which I enjoyed and I'd recommend it on that basis.
