Two-time Academy Award® winner Meryl Streep, Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin star in this hilarious look at marriage, divorce and everything in between. Jane (Streep) has three grown kids, a thriving Santa Barbara bakery and an amicable relationship with her ex-husband, Jake (Baldwin). Now, a decade after their divorce, an innocent dinner between Jane and Jake turns into the unimaginable - an affair. Caught in the middle of their rekindled romance are Jake’s young wife and Adam (Martin), a recently divorced architect who starts to fall for Jane. Could love be sweeter the second time around? It’s… complicated! From writer/director Nancy Meyers comes the comedy that critics call "laugh-out-loud funny" (Rex Reed, The New York Observer).

It's delightful to see Meryl Streep come into her own as a romantic comedian in her later career years--after all the accolades, the Oscars, the serious-as-marble dramatic roles. Streep is in fact a true cutup, as she has demonstrated in films like Mamma Mia and Julie & Julia--and she gets the guy. So if Nancy Meyers's It's Complicated is perhaps a bit facile in the plot department, it's saved by a splendid romp of a performance by Streep (as Jane), along with her two leading men, Alec Baldwin (Jane's ex-husband, Jake) and Steve Martin (her supposed boyfriend, Adam). Meyers, as she did in Something's Gotta Give and Baby Boom, turns notions of over-the-hilldom--at least for women--on their ear. Streep's Jane is a contented, affluent divorcée with excellent taste in furnishings, happily about to preside over an empty nest and feeling just fine about it. Who should bump into, and ruin, this perfect solitude but Jane's ex, Jake, played to a pompous (and hilarious) fare-thee-well by Baldwin. "Turns out I'm a bit of a slut," chirps the sexually awakened Jane. The beauty of It's Complicated is that it really isn't all that complicated--its chemistry depends on the wonderful actors (including the supporting cast of John Krasinski, Lake Bell, Mary Kay Place, and Rita Wilson) and the oft-forgotten reality that people over 25 can have great sex, and fall head over heels. --A.T.

OOP - Out of Print. Sensormatic refers to the Security tag inside a DVD.  It is put in at the factory before shipping usually on first releases by major studios.  I use it to identify a genuine or authentic DVD - not a bootleg or a copy.  

I do NOT grade the actual plastic case unless it has a tooth missing or a large rip or tear or is a cardboard snap case.  All of my DVDS are authentic releases and may have some wear on outer plastic case due to genuine age of product.  A slit through the Barcode is common for some manufacturers to do when discounting additional copies to a retail store.  It also helps to verify an authentic copy.

 

Promotional items and inserts are left in place, I make no guarantees digital codes, promotions, or coupons will work. They are included as they were part of the original purchase.

 

Items are packaged well with reused/recycled packaging in a mailer designed for CDs/DVDs.  CDs/DVDs are shipped USPS Media Mail from the Baltimore, MD area next business day.
