Meet the Fockers

Saw this movie today. Frankly I wish I was on my own so I could of walked out. It was not even funny. Robert De Niro was just about the only reason I give the movie `1/10 as opposed to a 0. Does Ben Stiller even know how to act? I mean all we ever see him in is stupid comedies like this. And can Owen Wilson for once NOT appear in a movie with Stiller? Albeit only a small role in this movie, it still some how earned him to be 6th on the credits list at the end.

Yeah, from what I've seen of him, if you've seen one Ben Stiller movie you've seen them all, and when it's a sequel to what was in my opinion a poor film I don't hold high hopes... Having said that, it's got the pedigree with De Niro and Hoffman, but it doesn't look like their best parts by any means.

Haven't seen a lot of Hoffman, but if you want to see what De Niro's capable of take a look at Taxi Driver...

well you can't exactly call it a "rip off" considering that it is a sequel...

I haven't seen this yet but, if it's anything like the first it should be ok to watch, as it was funny. I don't really like De Niros movies that much, but im hoping it shouldnt be that bad.

I thought it was kind of funny.
It had it's moments, but it followed the same plot line as the first one.

I'd give it 6 thumbs up. Not that great but worth watching.

I'll probably go see it this Tuesday. My movie day. Hopefully it entertains like the first one. Based on the positive reports here it should be allright.
