 | I could take or leave this movie. To me it was not as good as Meet the Parents. While Barbra Stresiand and Dustin Hoffman played uniqeu characters, the movie used them too heavily at the sacrifice of the story. Near the end I was growing weary of sexual humor and wanted the movie to end. It's not that I don't enjoy a good joke, but The Fockers tries too hard to be one big joke. The story is weak and virtually non-existant. I didn't find myself laughing much. |

| Ok, so it wasn't absolutely awful, but pretty darned close. I loved "Meet the Parents", but I should have known better with a sequel. It did have some redeeming moments, but overall, the parts that were supposed to be funny just felt so forced. It definetly wasn't worth my $4 bucks at the video store (at least I didn't drop $9 bucks at the movies...phee-u!). Only rent it if you're desperate and can't find anything else... Better yet, go home and go to sleep. |

| This film seems to take all of the gags of "Meet the Parents" and take them just a little bit further, far enough to fall flat on their collective face. Then characters are too extreme, Greg's parents too wild, care-free, and down-right annoying, and DeNiro too uptight and high-strung. All in all there was very little in the film that was actually funny. Sometimes sequels are just unneccesary, and this was one of those instances. |

| In this sequel to Meet the Parents, Dustin Hoffman clearly steals the show from Robert Dinero. The Fockers are a crazy family, who does not care about perfection just having a good time and being loved, the antithesis of Byrnes family. The acting in this movie is amazing, not only showing once again the versatility of Robert Dinero, but also Dustin Hoffman as an amazing comedian. Some classic scenes are the dinner around the fondue pot and the small child. This child actor was able to achieve some amazing things that even adult actors would have some trouble with. Props clearly make this movie, from Robert Dinero's solution to breast-feeding to the wall of Gaylord. A must see. |
