A refreshingly grown-up comedy about a couple who strike up an affair - years after their divorce.
A decade after their marriage break-up, Jane (Meryl Streep) and Jake (Alec Baldwin) are amicable friends who have moved on with their lives. But problems set in when the pair find themselves out of town attending their middle child's graduation. An innocent meal together rekindles their romance and turns into an uncontrollable love affair. With Jake remarried to the much younger Agness (Lake Bell), Jane realises she has become the 'other woman'! Stuck in the middle of their restored love story is goofy architect Adam (Steve Martin) who is trying his best to woo Jane, much to Jake's annoyance. Should Jane start afresh or go with Jake - who now wants her back? Is it truly possible for love and marriage to be better second time round? Whatever the outcome, like life, it's bound to be complicated...
