Milk bottles and related metaphors feature prominentlyas breast fetish stand-ins, but with a decidely peculiar asymmetrical preference for just the left one.

Has its smattering of laughs, but the new faces bring fewer dividends than the elemental De Niro/Ben Stiller showdown of the original.

Meet the Fockers is frequently funny, but it turns a bit too cruel in the third act to be as worthy a sequel to its predecessor as it could have been

[Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand] seem to have been waiting their whole careers to do unrestrained comedy, and they step into their roles with unparalleled enthusiasm.

Amazing how altering one vowel from the king of all cuss words can spawn a movie franchise.

...just as mediocre and gratingly unfunny as its predecessor...

Catch it on HBO for the sheer delight of everything Hoffman and Streisand do. It’s fun to meet the Fockers themselves, but the rest of the movie can stay home.

Mildly amusing...but joke repetition and a greater emphasis on outrageousness and vulgarity release a strong scent of the writers’ desperation.

This sequel, like most, is inferior to the original, but it is hard not to like these characters.

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

Hoffman, in particular, is a delight - he has an infectious comic energy that seems to light up the rest of the cast.

A pergunta é: você quer transformar o título brasileiro desta produção em realidade?

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 Critic 'Quizá tenga una historia muy boba y situaciones absurdas llevadas al extremo, pero de eso se trata: de hacer reír con bobadas'

Although not as disarmingly funny the second time around, inspired casting means that, unlike most in-laws, the Fockers don't outstay their welcome.
