Yesterday for my birthday Mom, Dad, Kati, Nate, Mike and I went to see "Little Fockers". It was definitely a funny movie, but not quite as funny as I expected it to be. Below is my review!
Director: Paul Weitz
Main Actors: Ben Stiller, Teri Polo and Robert De Niro
Synopsis: (from IMDB) It has taken 10 years, two little Fockers with wife Pam (Polo) and countless hurdles for Greg to finally get "in" with his tightly wound father-in-law, Jack. After the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, however, Jack's suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back. When Greg and Pam's entire clan-including Pam's lovelorn ex, Kevin (Owen Wilson)-descends for the twins' birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he's fully capable as the man of the house. But with all the misunderstandings, spying and covert missions, will Greg pass Jack's final test and become the family's next patriarch...or will the circle of trust be broken for good?
Rating: I put this one in the rent it category. It was funny, but not quite as funny as the first two. I think the first one ("Meet The Parents") was hilarious because we were seeing the relationships for the first time. The second one ("Meet The Fockers") was hilarious because we were taking those characters and adding the Focker family in. In this third installment, we sort of just get more of the same. Again, funny, but nothing entirely new like the first two movies. As always, some of the supporting cast are especially hilarious - Owen Wilson keeps the Kevin character completely wacky.
