(”Fill up momma’s wine glass and I’ll show you what I like to call the Streeptease.”)
Writer/Director Nancy Meyers writes the kind of movies (What Women Want, Something’s Gotta Give, The Holiday) that my mom forces me to watch that I end up resenting her for a little bit. This is the new trailer for her latest, starring Meryl Streep, Steve Martin, and Alec Baldwin (good), whose title is a copy of either a Facebook relationship status, an Avril Lavigne song, or a Denise Richards reality show (bad). Coming Christmas Day, It’s Complicated. Have you ever wanted to hear Alec Baldwin deliver lines that start with “O M G”? (no) Did you ever wish you’d see Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin making out in an elevator? (no) Were you hoping Steve Martin would get hip to webcam chat? (no) Well then this movie is for you! (not me).
From Nancy Meyers, the director of Something’s Gotta Give and What Women Want comes Old People F*cking Part 3, aka It’s Complicated. I hope it lives up to its name better than Denise Richards’ reality show, because in Denise Richards’ world, “complicated” seems to mean “hanging out on the f*cking beach drinking wine” a lot. It must be rough being a hobo with money. Where was I? Oh right, the movie. See, Meryl Streep was married to Alec Baldwin, who left her for a hot 20-something. But now they’re having an affair, even though she’s his ex-wife, even though her architect Steve Martin also wants a piece, and yeah, mom, this looks totally hilarious and realistic too.
