Meet the Fockers is the follow up to the very funny Meet the Parents and for once in my opinion the follow up is actually better than the original. The reason this film is so good is due to the strength of the cast. Ben Stiller takes on the lead role as the accident prone suitor of the daughter of Robert De Niro. I love De Niro as an actor and I really think that he is excellent playing comedy roles. In this he is the straight laced father who does not think any one is good enough for his daughter, he is also a former undercover CIA agent who uses his contacts and spy gear to spy on his future son in law. The reason this one is better than the first though is ...  Read the complete review

This brilliant sequel is definately one to add to your collection! It follows on from the first film, as Greg and Pam head out to go visit his parents, but as usual there are many unlucky situations along the way! There is a great, all-star cast for this film, Ben Stiller, Robert DeNiro, Barbra Streisand and Dustin Hoffman. You'll be laughing the whole way through in this genius comedy. I would definately recommend this to ...  Read the complete review

It is very rare that I fully appreciate a sequel, much less go to the extent of saying that the sequel is better than the original film- but after having watched Meet the Fockers, I have to say that it certain exceeds Meet the Parents in terms of humor and cringe worthiness. For those of you who found the first movie enthrallingly funny, I believe you might just enjoy this one as much as I did. The addition of the Focker family to the previously original cast can simply be defined as an addition to the comical dimension of the film as a whole. Plot: Gaylord Greg Focker seems to have finally earned his way in the Circle of Trust. As a result, Jack ...  Read the complete review

I watched this again on Saturday night and this film does not fail to deliver the laughs. The cast is excellent with the oldies really stealing the show. De Niro and Hoffman dance around each other in a comedy ballet of the first order. These two are old hands and they look like they are really enjoying the roles that they play. Barbara Streisand is brilliantly embarrasing as Ben Stillers mum Roz and Blythe Danner reprises her role as the long suffering Dina. This film picks up where meet the parents left off. Greg and Pam are off to Florida to see Gregs parents (The Fokers) and to introduce Pam's parents (The Byrnes'). The minute you see Gregs parents ...  Read the complete review
