"Some say I'm the expert on the younger woman...That's probably because I've been dating them for over forty years."Harry Sanborn (Jack Nicholson) prides himself on his many affairs with beautiful ladies.As the movie opens, he's about to spend a nice long weekend in the company of Marin (Amanda Peet), whose mother, famous playwright Erica Berry (Diane Keaton), owns a beach house in the Hamptons which seems perfect for a romantic tryst.The appearance of Erica herself, however, interrupts the two love birds just as their relationship is about to get serious, and along with her sister Zoe (Frances McDormand), descends upon Harry as he's raiding the refrigerator, and (mistaking him for a burglar) nearly gets him arrested.What follows is a very uncomfortable dinner during which Erica is barely able to conceal her dislike for Harry."He says he's leaving as soon as the sun comes up." Marin tells her mother in the kitchen."Why? His car doesn't have headlights?"The unpleasant evening culminates with Harry having a heart attack.After Erica is forced to give him mouth to mouth, Harry is rushed to the hospital where he is attended to by Dr. Julian Mercer (Keanu Reeves) who happens to be a huge fan of Erica's, and sets out to pursue her.After a series of disasters which lead to Harry staying at a begrudging Erica's beach house (he's unable to travel), the two find themselves falling into a torrid love affair, from which neither of them will emerge unscathed.This is a rare jewel of a movie.Not only is it hysterically funny (it is that), but it also deals with a theme rarely seen in romantic comedies, which is that of two older people falling in love instead of the usual post High School couples we always see.After all, there is life after forty.All the actors are just spectacular.Nancy Meyers does an incredible job making this movie. She's incredibly talented both as a writer and as a director, and I have yet to see a movie of hers I dislike.In an age where Hollywood seems to be going down the drain, it's nice to know there's a filmmaker out there who still knows what she is doing.Originally, Review #128Posted On: August 18, 2011

What is happening in this movie? I'm watching it right now, but I don't know. I mean if I had ten million dollars to make a movie it sure as sh*t would not be this movie. I would want to make a good movie, y'know, one that means something, but hey, I make pizzas for a living, the f*ck do I know. Did you know that when you employ actors to act they can simulate real life experiences? Yeah, it's true, all that is required is a director and a script- but you would never guess it with this movie. Maybe this movie would make sense if I was rich but clearly since my wheelhouse involves pizza dough, I don't understand. All of our lives for this, and we walk away with what?

Much like "It's Complicated," this film utilizes the stellar acting chops of actors with a great deal of both comedic and dramatic experience. That is probably one of the factors that makes it so great. The pairing of Keaton and Nicholson is brilliant. Their chemistry is undeniable - and their ability to make their uncomfortable situation palatable speaks to their acting chops.While the story may seem unfathomable, life can be stranger than fiction so it isn't hard to suspend disbelief on this one. Especially keeping in mind that this is a romantic comedy, after all. This film is not meant to be taken too seriously. But it IS seriously hilarious!
