box office gross is high for this gross film

Rating: 1/10 (28 May 2005)

I am not a prude. I enjoy raunchiness, but some skill, a light touch, is required. If you are amused by a sex therapist talking shop, watching a weird little dog hump everything in sight, the reactions at the dinner table when a foreskin lands in a plate of soup. or seeing a baby in a high chair mouth expletives then this is the show for you. An evidently for millions of movie goers who have made Meet the Fockers one of 2004's top moneymakers. Too bad, it will encourage all the people involved in making this appalling movie. I would expect the spectacularly untalented Ben Stiller to willingly participate in this project, but would like to know how such top[ veterans as Streisand. De Niro, Hoffman, and Danner got involved.
