This time, young engaged couple Pam (Teri Polo) and Greg (Ben Stiller) are getting their parents together a few months before the wedding. Greg nervously plans out every detail of the trip, only to be usurped by Pam's domineering ex-CIA-man father (Robert DeNiro). Not only has he purchased an RV, insisting they'll be driving from New York City to the Fockers' home in Miami, but he's bringing along his perfect baby grandson. When they finally arrive at the Fockers' house, Greg's parents, Bernie and Roz (Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand), turn out to be sex-addicted hippies and not at all what the Byrnes (DeNiro and Blythe Danner) had expected. With one pitfall after another, the film takes the concept of awkward in-law experiences to new heights, from stories about past sexual experiences to detailed discussion of current ones. What's worse, the Fockers are teaching the baby curse words and weaning him on rum, to the shock of his overprotective grandparents. Every conversation is totally inappropriate and downright embarrassing, keeping audiences braced for the next disaster. Along the way, all six cast members turn in topnotch performances, with Hoffman, Streisand, and Stiller leading the charge in true Focker spirit.

Top Reviews Review created: 06/16/06(updated 12/18/06) by: 9 of 9 people found this review helpful. I'd watch anything with Barbra Streisand doing comedy in it because of her impecable timing. Robert De Niro still has the power, as he did in Meet the Parents, to make me intensely dislike his character. Dustin Hoffman has never been so cute. Ben Stiller is coming along as a comedian, but is still not great like his real parents. De Niro is supposedly a control freak ex-CIA operative who is now taking control of Stiller and Polo's young nephew. Streisand plays a sexologist who is always rushing off with Hoffman to roll in the hay. While poor Blythe Danner has to put up with the emotionally and physically detached De Niro. This sequel to Meet the Parents is far better than its predecessor was because it is less slapstick. Streisand and Hoffman have a stage chemistry that is priceless. This one is worth owning and watching over and over again. Review ID: 10000000001207131 Was this review helpful? Report this review 5 of 5 people found this review helpful. If you don't laugh, you're dead! The pairing of Dustin Hoffman with Barbra Streisand is the best pairing since Fred and Ginger! Can't wait to see .... "Meet that little Focker!" .. Hope they get it out soon. I want to see the grandparenting of Dustin and Barbra bring the CIA to its knees. Review ID: 10000000002712572 Was this review helpful?

I think they are excellent as far as combining comedy with a good plot, good actors, and what was really important to me- There was NON of that too stupid over done, Will Ferrell kindergarten humor. I recommend this movie for all "real" comedy lovers! Review ID: 10000000002278771 Was this review helpful? Report this review Review created: 08/10/06 by: 5 of 5 people found this review helpful.
