Meet the Fockers
Gaylord Focker (Ben Stiller) has successfully won over the in-laws Jack and Dina (Robert DeNiro and Blythe Danner), but now a new obstacle is ahead: for all 4 parents to meet. Greg's parents are a contrast to their conservative counterparts as Bernie (Dustin Hoffman) and Roz (Barbra Streisand) celebrate their freedom quite openly. The contentious weekend is made more heated with the revelation that Pam (Teri Polo) is pregnant. The opportunity to meet Greg's parents gives Jack a new opportunity to survey the history of his future son-in-law including the possibility that Greg fathered a son when he lost his virginity. Jack is convinced more than ever that Greg is wrong for Pam and will do what he can to prevent the wedding to go forward.

The sequel doesn't match the comedy of its predecessor, but it comes pretty darn close. I was a little disappointed at their use of the storyline from the original and the similar resolution, but it's easy to overlook that with the good comedic performances from actors who are usually identified with dramatic roles. Streisand just seems especially perfect for the role of Roz, a sex therapist and Hoffman looks like he's having a lot of fun in his role of father. It was great while it lasted, but, you know, I think two movies are enough. 3 stars
