What can a guy in love do when all are against him?

Rating: 6/10 (22 August 2006)

**My name is Phantom. I'm from Europe (Hellas) Sorry for my English** This movie has something special without knowing. Ben Stiller wants to marry his girlfriend but before the proposal he thinks best to meet her parents. However, he chooses the most inappropriate time as the DeNiro house - the bride's parents - are busy with the wedding of their other daughter. Stiller tries to win DeNiro's sympathy by paying attention to his rules (he cuts smoking and having sex - just for a while of course). However, the groom's family - including Polo's ex-boyfriend - seem to snob Stiller's name and job by their way. They think Stiller is a stranger and they ignore him by the first moment. However, he turns to a hero when he finds DeNiro's cat but he turns to a jerk again a little later when the real cat is found. As a result, he becomes nervous and his bad luck leads to a series of goofs: he loses his suitcase at the airport, turns the garden into a swamp, sets on fire the wedding place and breaks the vase with what-is-left by DeNiro's mother. And that's where the people laugh. By watching this bad luck. Stiller tries to prove that he values more than what they think and at last he manage to marry his beloved girlfriend... but there is something else in the air. DeNiro wants to meet Stiller's parents... You will understand my thoughts if you watch this film by Stiller's eyes, which I believe was the ideal choice for the role. DeNiro remains in our minds as the old-CIA agent, not that this matters a lot in the movie. Many trivia will appear however in "Meet the Fockers" where this unique surname is used. This is a famous movie, a great comedy, there is nothing more to say... Just watch it! And you will not lose.
