Fans of the first will find some amusement in familiarity, but with such a comically able cast this is a missed opportunity.

Culture-clashing through the snow, in a one-joke open sleigh, Meet the Fockers goes, laughing all the way . . . to the bank.

Though it's good to see [Stiller] back in his stumbling, bumbling element, it's a bummer to see his element wasted in such stumbling, bumbling gags.
12/21/04
Director Jay Roach gives the film no visual distinction whatsoever but packs on the jokes with tireless bustle.
12/21/04
Very often vulgar and tasteless, and though there are some unexpected bursts of humor and even charm in the proceedings, it's light years away from Chekhov.

Top CriticYou'd think after an eight-year absence from the screen, [Streisand would] return with more self-respect.
12/27/04
Could they not have come up with anything but lumpish, vulgar humor and dumb “Focker” puns?
12/28/04
Stiller — by starring in Meet the Fockers, one of the year’s final releases — pulls into a buzzer-beating tie with Jude Law as the most-overexposed actor of the movie year.
12/21/04
The most disappointing sequel of 2004.
12/28/04
As far as completely pointless, redundant, superfluous sequels go, it could have been a lot worse. At least it wasn't ZOOLANDER 2 - MORE ZOOLANDISH
03/03/05
Meet the Fockers is stuck somewhere between being absolutely hilarious and one of the worst comedies ever committed to celluloid.
12/22/04
repetitious and just not that funny on the whole, especially since it's so derivative and out of character next to the original
12/20/04
Sequel to the mediocre Ben Stiller comedy "Meet The Parents" is a bawdier but inferior movie that relies on the star power of Dustin Hoffman and Barbara Streisand as Stiller's Florida-dwelling Jewish hippie parents Bernie and Roz to fuel its ill-timed toi
04/16/09
A weary retread without a fraction of the inventiveness that sparked the original.
