Unoriginal waste of talent

Rating: 3/10 (24 April 2006)

Gaylord Focker. There, now you've seen (or read) just about the only original joke in the whole movie. It looks like a compilation of old "Brady Bunch", "Three's Company" or maybe "Who's the Boss?" rejected scripts. Marsha's going to the Prom so Greg, Peter, or Bobby breaks her nose with a football, cleverly changed to a wedding and volleyball in this, Greg's fiancée's old boyfriend, Owen Wilson, in a thankless role, (Actually all of the roles are thankless or maybe worthless) builds a beautiful hand made wood gazebo, gee, you don't think Greg's stupid careless smoking will burn it to the ground, do you? Flushing the basement commode will flood the yard with sewage and ruin the wedding. Gosh, that'll never happen! The shame of this film is the total waste of talent and time, the best that can be said for it is, it's better than the sequel, which wastes Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand too.
