First comes marriage. Then comes divorce. And then... Divorced... with benefits.
Some of the best -- and dirtiest -- lines in It's Complicated aren't even lines. Instead, they're looks, landed with the skill of two masters of comic acting in this very grown-up -- and very funny -- love story. The romantic comedy about a divorced couple having an affair manages to be both light on its feet and heavy enough to deliver something of a message. The masters in question, of course, are Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin. As Jane and Jake Adler -- 10 years divorced and with three grown children, yet suddenly drawn back into each other's lives (and beds) after a drunken fling -- the stars pick up the movie and run away with it. The writing and direction, by rom-com veteran Nancy Meyers (Something's Gotta Give), are deft enough. But it's Streep and Baldwin's gamely ribald performances, and their seemingly effortless, effervescent chemistry, that put the pep in this movie's highly choreographed, yet richly entertaining step.
