"Good Comedy!"

Rating: 7/10 (23 July 2012)

Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Teri Polo, Blythe Danner and Owen Wilson star in this 2000 comedy. Gaylord 'Greg' Focker (Stiller) is a male nurse who wants to marry his longtime girlfriend, Pam Byrnes (Polo). He decides to go with her to meet her parents, Jack (De Niro) and Dina (Danner) for the weekend in honor of her sister's wedding. Things start to go very wrong for Gaylord when he tries to get Jack's approval, but eventually wins his support and proposes to Pam. Wilson plays Pam's ex-boyfriend, Kevin who is into carpentry and carves an altar that accidentally gets burned. De Niro is terrific as the father-in-law from hell and he and Stiller are great together. I recommend this good comedy.
