Answer:

That is a complex sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

A complex sentence has one independent clause and one or more dependent clause.

'After we saw the movie' is a dependent clause.

'..we went to the coffee shop.' is a independent clause.

Thus, this is a complex sentence.

A compound sentence has two or more independent clauses. This only has one independent clause.

A simple sentence only has one independent clause.

A run-on sentence has two or more independent clauses that are not joined together correctly.
