It's Complicated
I liked this a lot more than I expected. Meryl Streep was great with Alec Baldwin, but my favorite moments were with Steve Martin. Especially an extended sequence where they got high together. Nancy Myers is waaaaay too fond of the Better Homes & Garden camera shots. And there were a lot of people in the ensemble (the kids) that didn't seem to have anything to do. When the actors were clicking it was a fun picture, but there were at least as many scenes that felt flat or contrived. Most notably it seemed to end about five times. A fun, but imperfect film.
