Meet the Fockers
Meet the Fockers is the 2004 follow up to Meet the Parents. It was also a huge financial success – just like the first one. Universal also appears the be hedging its bets on the upcoming sequel called Little Fockers, due out this year.
So Meet the Fockers, while still having the same cast as the hilarious first and it made a fist full of dollars for those that produced and distributed, wasn’t quite as good as the first one – which is typical, though it was very funny to see how the former CIA spy would react to a bunch of half crazed Fockers.
The thing that probably hurt the most about the film was watching the sexual content scene, starring middle aged people – really didn’t do it for me, regardless of how funny they were. There was something weird about that.
Overall, the film was still good and we’re anticipating the next one to come out. Kids and crazy antics are usually a great combination.
