The story: Now that Greg Focker (Stiller) is "in" with his soon-to-be in-laws, Jack (De Niro) and Dina (Danner) Byrnes, it looks like smooth sailing for him and his fianc�e, Pam (Polo). But that's before Pam's parents meet Greg's parents, Bernie and Roz Focker (Hoffman and Streisand). The hyper-relaxed Fockers and the tightly-wound Byrneses are woefully mismatched from the start, and no matter how hard Greg and Pam try, there is just no bringing their families together-which all adds up to a disastrously funny time of "getting to know you."

Critics' Reviews:

Chris Garcia, AA-S:
"...a pageant of off-color, lamely arbitrary jokes meant to at once elicit cringes and laughs."

Newark Star-Ledger:
"...the movie has few new jokes to tell, offering little more than slight modulations of familiar scenarios."
