If you never tire of all of the sex and bathroom humor spewing forth every night on TV sitcoms, then this is the movie for you.

This movie abandons the original and creative comedy of "Meet the Parents", in favor of the same old "potty" humor we see everywhere else. About the only cheap comedy gag they didn't use was dressing men in women's clothing, but I'm sure if they would have thought of it, we'd have seen DeNiro in drag.… Expand

Eh it was ok. It didnt dwell on the first film too much but it didnt do enough to really set itself apart either. The cast is good but the story is too generic and features a lot of generic jokes.

I think the addition of Hoffman and Streisand did wonders for the cast. It was a solid film overall and was well worth watching. A good sequel to what is becoming a good franchise.

Everything has changed. "Meet the Fockers", unlike its prequel, contains too much of the Hollywood spirit with the obvious-OBVIOUS family-romance-comedy-whatever formula we all watch.

This sequel, which now see's Fockers hippy parents join in on the act, is a pale imitation however despite the all the acting talent on show. There are a couple of humorous scenes but most jokes, for me at least, just fell flat meaning I was bored well before the final credits of what is a fairly lazy sequel.… Expand

A wasted cast is amongst a very lazy, laid back movie that you can tell the writers didn't care about because it wasn't that funny and a bit too raunchy even though it was kind of funny you couldn't find a soul to this film anywhere.

While it does contain strong hints to it's predecessor, Meet The Fockers gets plenty of fresh humor from the addition of Hoffman and Streisand, and the content is delivered perfectly by a great cast.

An unfortunate and obvious follow-up to Meet the Parents. The addition of Hoffman and Streisand is wonderful; however, not nearly enough to save this franchise.

About 1/10 of the laughs of Meet the Parents.

Meet the Parents is one of my favorite comedies. This sequel is so appallingly bad I wish I could erase it from memory. I'm not sure what audience they were going after but they abandoned all the fans of the original. If you find the Meet the Parents is one of my favorite comedies. This sequel is so appallingly bad I wish I could erase it from memory. I'm not sure what audience they were going after but they abandoned all the fans of the original. If you find the sex life of old people amusing then this might be for you but seriously, how long can you laugh at the same stuff again and again. Avoid this gutter trash and, unlike the original, definitely don't let your kids watch it. They'll just get depressed (and disgusted).… Expand

Liked it as much as I did the origial. The addition of Hoffman and Streisand definently added new life to the film. I am really suprised that critics and users didn't like it more. It' a good comedy.

I was actually a little disappointed. It didn't live up to the originals standards at all. The performances were great but it didn't have a lot of funny parts which is surprising since the first one was hilarious. The third one saved it big time.

Meet The Fockers

Just as the first one, it pretty much is exhaustingly same which comes as a shock looking at the cast; no amount of funny could have saved the script.

Devoid of any real humor and without any class, this is, except for the luminous and wasted Blythe Danner, a truly dreadful film.
