I actually liked this movie more and more every time I watched it. I loved Streisand's part. She was so believable to me. Different humor than the original and I would say this one is more of a crowd pleaser/mainstream. Humors Not subtle like the first one, which is a classic to me, but much better than what I'd expect from a sequel.

This film did not impress me too much, mainly because i just didn't laugh much at all. Robert De Niro was annoying to me, like in the first one. Ben Stiller was disappointing, like in the first one as well. I'll tell you what makes this sequel better than the it's predecessor, that is Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand, they made this movie! Barbra Streisand was very funny along her husband, Dustin Hoffman. Some of the jokes seemed a bit tired and been there done that, which made it boring at times. Overall I'm not the biggest fan of this film series, this series of movies annoys me, and is lazy in my opinion, but of all three films, Meet the Fockers is my personal favorite, I do think that it was the one out of all three, that was the most well-made.

You read the top right. If it's broken why fix it? Meet The Fockers is the continued story of Greg Focker and the unique family he is trying to marry into. Only this time, Greg is introducing his parents to his in-laws and they are more dysfunctional than his in-laws. Now don't get me wrong, this is still a movie I would watch once and leave to oblivion. The same form of comedy is used as in the first, it's awkward but better performed I think. It's the best of the Focker Trilogy, which is garbage as a whole. However, Greg's parents are brilliantly cast and are the best part of the movie. Just saying my favorite part of the movie was either when Greg is drugged by his father-in-law or when they flush Mojo, the Fockers' family dog. They were the high points in a very mediocre/bad movie that can be forgotten with little effort, but this movie is still way better than the first. Do not go out your way to watch it or rent it, it's not worth it.

My summary says it all - I don't understand why it's considered acceptable to cause upset to small children in order to make a film.Apparently, I'm supposed to add some more words to this review... so I'd like to say how much the location of this film reminded me of that in Cool Hand Luke - probably one of the most moving films ever made about the attempted destruction and ultimate (albeit, tragic) triumph of the human spirit.Blythe Danner is quite sexy isn't she?Ben Stiller was good in Tropic Thunder.. Robert Downey Jr. was very good..
