Movie Reviews of Meet the Fockers (Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: Pitiful
Summary: 1 Stars
After seeing 'Meet The Parents', I had big expectations for this sequel. I am very disappointed.
While the first movie had a bit of bathroom humor, this one is totally overdone with sexual innuendo (that is not even remotely funny). Very little of this one is humorous at all.
It features the main characters from its predecessor and adds in Barbra Streisand and Dustin Hoffman as Roz and Bernie Focker. Neither one is very funny or particularly good.
This show is pretty much a waste of an hour and a half. I recommend avoiding it.
Summary of Meet the Fockers (Widescreen Edition)
Now that greg focker is in with his soon-to-be-in-laws jack & dina byrnes it looks like smooth sailing for him & his fiance pam. But thats before pams parents meet gregs parents bernie & roz focker. The hyper-relaxed fockers & the tightly-wound byrneses are woefully mismatched from the start. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 08/22/2006 Starring: Ben Stiller Dustin Hoffman Run time: 116 minutes Rating: Pg13Meet the Parents found such tremendous success in the chemistry produced by the contrasting personalities of stars Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller that the film's creators went for broke with the same formula again in Meet the Fockers. This time around, Jack and Dina Byrnes (De Niro and Blythe Danner) climb into Jack's new kevlar-lined RV with daughter Pam (Teri Polo), soon-to-be son-in-law Gaylord (Stiller), and Jack's infant grandson from his other daughter for the trip to Florida to meet Gaylord's parents, Bernie and Roz Focker (Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand in a casting coup). The potential in-laws are, of course, the opposite of Jack, a pair of randy, touchy-feely fun-lovers. The rest of the movie is pretty much a sitcom: put Bernie and Roz together with Jack, and watch the in-laws clash as Gaylord squirms. As with the original, there is a sense of joy in watching these actors take on their roles with obvious relish, and the Hoffman-Streisand-Stiller triumvirate is likeable enough to draw you in. But the formula doesn't work as well in Fockers mostly because much of the humor is based on two obvious gimmicks: Gaylord Focker's name, and the fact that Streisand's character is a sex therapist. As a result, the movie itself is more contrived and predictable, and a lot less fun than the original. The casting is grand, but one wishes more thought was put into the script.--Dan Vancini
