a sometimes funny,often amusing, generally entertaining movie

Rating: 7/10 (1 January 2007)

Meet the Parents is not generally funny in a hysterical way(though there are a few of those elements.the movie is more about the funny little things that occur when meeting the parents for the first time.anybody who has ever brought their Boyfriend/girlfriend or possible fiancé to meet their parents for the first time can attest to this.of course the same goes for the person meeting the parents.this is generally what the movie is about.there are some very funny moments in the movie,to be sure.and there are very amusing moments all through the film. the movie is not funny all the time,but is always entertaining.the movie stars Ben Stiller(The boyfriend),Terri Polo,(the daughter)Robert Deniro(the Father)and Blythe Danner(the Mother)
