	Meet the Fockers (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Meet The Fockers (The sequel to the successful comedy, Meet The Parents) is about male nurse Gaylord Focker (Ben Stiller) and his fiancée Pam Byrnes (Teri Polo).
		This should be expected from many sequels, and yet the thing that makes Meet The Fockers different from other sequels to comedies is that it may use the same jokes, but it keeps the jokes fresh and they are always different enough from the first time the joke was used to still be funny.
		All in all Meet The Fockers is a good film and is definitely worthy of the $8.50 (or whatever) that you would have to spend.

		It works to a degree in 'Meet the Parents' because De Niro keeps things relatively serious there (and it worked much better in 'Midnight Run' for the same reason), but here De Niro tries to be whacky and the results are less than hilarious.
		The second film, 'Meet the Fockers', muddies up the dynamic a bit by introducing more characters and stars (Barbra Streisand and Dustin Hoffman) and makes Jack less of an opposing force and more a fish out of water, which unfortunately dilutes the central premise a bit.
		'Meet the Fockers' is enterning enough but De Niro isn't used as well by the script and director.

	Meet The Fockers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		The thing that gave Meet the Parents the ability to be funny was the semblance of heart and truth that director Jay Roach infused in the Ben Stiller character, his relationship with Pam, and the movie grew off of it.
		Meet the Parents, for what it's worth, had a considerable amount of charm to keep it fresh, and the result is a nicely made comedy.
		Meet the Fockers, however, is just a joke on whoever watches it, and worst of all, it's one the audience has already heard.

	Filmtracks: Meet the Fockers (Randy Newman)
		Meet the Fockers: (Randy Newman) As an overdue follow-up to the 2000 hit comedy Meet the Parents, Jay Roach's Meet the Fockers extends the characters from the first film into the realm of Greg Focker's (Ben Stiller's) parents.
		In a journey down memory lane, though, Meet the Fockers gives Newman the opportunity to slide right back into ever familiar territory, with the filmmakers apparently deciding that a nearly identical effort from Newman's previous entry in the series being the best method of providing music to the sequel.
		Released by Varèse Sarabande, the Meet the Fockers album is nearly identical in structure to Dreamworks' album for Meet the Parents, with the Newman songs followed by score and several rock songs appearing at the end.

		The previews for Meet the Fockers alarmed me when I saw that a child was in the cast.
		Meet the Parents relied on common themes like being intimidated by your mate's parents, rivalry with former lovers, and job envy with relatives.
		Meet the Parents is a movie that I can watch over and over again, but Meet the Fockers is one that you see once and forget about it.

		Both films are based on an old and sturdy premise: Meeting the future in-laws and/or introducing those in-laws to each other for the first time, a concept full of comedic potential.
		Bernie Focker is a stay-at-home hippie-dippy guy; Roz Focker is a free-wheeling sex therapist to senior citizens.

	Movie Review - Meet the Fockers - www.ericdsnider.com - The Official Website of Eric D. Snider
		In the grand tradition of movie sequels, "Meet the Fockers" is a little coarser, a little more desperate and a lot less funny than its predecessor.
		In the world of the movie, it's only been two years since 2000's "Meet the Parents," which ended with Gaylord "Greg" Focker (Ben Stiller) getting the OK to marry his sweetheart Pam Byrnes (Teri Polo) from her accommodating mother Dina (Blythe Danner) and her strict, ex-CIA father Jack (Robert De Niro).
		The Fockers are a touch-feely couple, still quite frisky (she's a sex therapist specializing in senior citizens; he's a happy house husband) and absolute admirers of their mediocre son.

	Meet the Fockers
		Greg Focker and Pam Byrnes are engaged to be married (already living together), and the time has come for the couple's parents to meet.
		The Fockers and the Byrnes could hardly be more different, yet they do share an important quality: Both sets of parents care deeply about their children.
		Meet the Fockers never grows tired of using the family's surname in ways that sound a lot like that other f-word.

		Streisand and Hoffman play the Fockers (pronounced Fawkers), the parents of male nurse Greg Focker (Ben Stiller), who is engaged to Pam Byrnes (Teri Polo).
		Streisand, a couples therapist who uses sex as a way to restore intimacy, probes a bit too deeply into the private lives of De Niro and Danner, and the last thing her son wants is his mother meddling with his future in-laws' marriage.
		When they all meet in Florida, the Byrneses are characteristically buttoned-down: He in muted sport coats; she in blazers and scarves.

	Meet the Fockers (2004): Robert DeNiro, Ben Stiller, Blythe Danner, Dustin Hoffman - PopMatters Film Review
		Just when the Byrnesmobile lands in the Fockers' grand circling driveway, she's upstairs conducting one of her regular yoga-sex classes for seniors: the camera lingers on their contorting bodies, as they extol Roz's virtues and exult in their newfound vigor.
		The promotional talk-festing for Meet the Fockers has smartly emphasized the "event" of gathering together all these performers, rather than mention the material, which is as inane and hit-and-miss funny as before.
		Once again, the predominant mode in Meet the Fockers is over the top: set squarely against Jack's hard-case (if surprisingly imaginative) discipline, the Fockers are brash, generous, and fond of games in bed.

		Indeed, they're having such a swell time as Roz and Bernie Focker that they seem to be in an entirely different movie--a funnier one, a sexier one and a smarter one.
		The abundance of talent gathered for Meet the Fockers is sadly shortchanged by the unimaginative script and directorial laissez faire.
		Meet The Fockers has assembled a historic, once-in-a-lifetime cast, then stranded them in the laziest, most mercenary kind of sequel imaginable.

		The makers and stars behind the runaway hit of 2000, "Meet the Parents," are re-united in the follow-up comedy, "Meet the Fockers".
		Now that Greg Focker (Stiller) is "in" with his soon-to-be in-laws, Jack (De Niro) and Dina Byrnes, it looks like smooth sailing for him and his fiancée, Pam (Polo).
		The hyper-relaxed Fockers and the tightly-wound Byrneses are woefully mismatched from the start, and no matter how hard Greg and Pam try, there is just no bringing their families together--which all adds up to a disastrously funny time of "getting to know you".

		If you went to "Meet the Parents" (2000), you will probably find yourself going to "Meet the Fockers," because having met one set of crazy parents, you are curious about the other set.
		In the original, Pam took Greg home to meet her parents, Jack and Dina (Robert De Niro and Blythe Danner), and you will recall that Greg was a threat to Jack's beloved cat, human ashes made an inappropriate appearance, a septic tank overflowed, and Jack the ex-CIA man gave Greg a lie detector test.
		Now it is time to drive down to Focker Isle in Florida, where live Father and Mom Focker (Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand).

		Meet the Parents found such tremendous success in the chemistry produced by the contrasting personalities of stars Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller that the film's creators went for broke with the same formula again in Meet the Fockers.
		The rare sequel that is far funnier than the box-office smash upon which it is based, Meet the Fockers (2004) is flat-out hilarious.
		It's a testament to their understanding of comedy that Robert De Niro's Jack Byrnes character is as much the protagonist of Fockers as Ben Stiller's shlubby Gaylord, which gives the story a little more comic elbow room, opening it up for the introduction of Roz and Bernie Focker.

		Following the knee-slapping hit MEET THE PARENTS, director Jay Roach once again keeps audiences roaring with laughter as he presents MEET THE FOCKERS.
		The ideas behind Meet The Fockers are the best part of this zany sequel to Meet The Parents, but getting Fockerised is not as funny as it should be.
		So many subplots are piled onto Meet the Fockers that it's a wonder any of the glittering talents assembled here have room to be funny.

		MEET THE PARENTS tapped the humor found in the anxiety of seeing one’s in-laws for the first time.
		MEET THE FOCKERS is mildly amusing on a relatively consistent basis, but joke repetition and a greater emphasis on outrageousness and vulgarity release a strong scent of the writers’ desperation.

		But the formula doesn't work as well in Fockers mostly because much of the humor is based on two obvious gimmicks: Gaylord Focker's name, and the fact that Streisand's character is a sex therapist.
		The movie picks up where `Meet the Parents' left off with Greg and Pam successfully engaged with the consent of her former CIA operative, uptight father Jack Byrnes.
		Meet the Fockers is a brilliant family comedy and I'd say is far better than the prequel.....Probably due to the presence of Hoffman and Streisand, who add that extra comedy factor.

	Variety.com - Reviews - Meet the Fockers (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Far more than the 2000 original, which was mostly implicit in its ethnic implications, "Fockers" is explicit about touchy-feely, liberal and liberated Jews trying to mellow out uptight, conservative and repressed WASPs (this is such a shopworn notion by now that a much more novel comedy could be wrung out of the reverse dynamic).
		For starters, a hot Latin lady (Alanna Ubach), formerly the Fockers' maid, is presented as the woman to whom the teenage Greg lost his virginity, with a possible illegitimate son the result.
		Although potent B.O. for "Fockers" may create corporate desire for a third installment, the extent to which the creative fertility level has dropped between entries one and two provides a significant argument for Roach & Co. to retire the Fockers before it's really too late.
