It's not rated R people!
First of all, this movie wasn't rated R. When we went to pick it up at the video store, the guy said it was 14A, and sure enough, when I checked the back of the box, it was. My mom, 11 year old sister and I got it because we thought it would be a funny rom-com type movie, which it didn't turn out to be, but it covered some important issues, especially divorce and infiedelity. There are some drugs, including characters smoking a joint, but nothing you don't see at my high school. My mom covered my sister's eyes at some points, but it was nothing I hadn't seen, nor heard. The ending was dissapointing and sad though . . .

Good movie for people over 14
I really liked this movie, for R rated there hardly was any swearing, and it didn't show hardly any nudity or most anything of what other movies do.

This is a great family movie everyone can watch with there kids. Don't let the commercial fool you because none of that actually happens this movie and it's really about the importance of sharing and kindness. You and your whole family should check out this movie.

One of the best comedies I've seen in a while!
It's Complicated was, franky, hilarious! There are so many quotable lines and priceless moments. The cast was excellent as well. It's a great one for adults and upper teens, not because of too much inappropriate material, but because younger kids wouldn't really understand some of the humor and references in the film. Meryl Streep, as always, was fantastic (SPOILER: wait until you see her stoned!!!), and Alec Baldwin was just too much like a lovesick little puppy to find him repulsive. Definitely a must-see!

Perfect for adults and maybe for teens, but not for younger children!
I loved this movie! It was a great comedy even for teens in my opinion. There was a lot of sexual content, but overall it was very entertaining to watch. I would recommend this 15+....

Shouldn't have been rated R
Well, I don't really know why this is rated R. It's really not that bad.There is, like, NO language at all. They don't show anyone having sex, but they show people lying in bed. There is one scene where some main characters are smoking pot, but that's about as bad as this movie gets. IT'S HILARIOUS!! :)

Iffy for tweens, So funny for teens, but no kids.
I am 13 and I saw it and didn't find it inappropriate or offensive but gave off some bad messages about "love" and divorce. It might be a bit awkward for people who's parent's recently got divorced and may give false hope about parents getting back together.
