It has taken 10 years, two little Fockers with wife Pam and countless hurdles for Greg to finally get in with his tightly wound father-in-law, Jack. After the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, Jack's suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back. When Greg and Pam's entire clan descends for the twins' birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he's fully capable as the man of the house.

Family-patriarch Jack Byrnes wants to appoint a successor. Does his son-in-law, the male nurse Greg Focker, have what it takes? Little Fockers continues the success of the first 2 films and the end result is another great film packed with great perfomances, some new faces like Harvey Keitel, Laura Dern, Jessica Alba and Kevin Hart also some great hilarious moments like a fight between De Niro and Stiller, a Jaws Reference and an insane after credits remix with Jack Byrnes. Fans of the original 2 films will love this film, everyone else? should avoid it for better or for worse i guess. (10/10)
The only reason I didn't give this hilarious movie a 10 ratings is because Paul Twitchell said everything in time down here in our little earth orbit runs in 7's....7 seconds, 7 minutes, 7 hours, 7 days, 7 weeks, 7 months, 7 years & so forth. So maybe 7 years ago it wasn't a 10.This movie which was made for a $100 million - makes $300 million and everyone here in IMDb reviews on it from 7 years ago to now seem to says the 3rd sequel shouldn't have been made!If that doesn't tell u how PC-ed we have become in the states...nothing will.I laughed so hard at every seemly predictable joke that led to even more unpredictable nonsense because I also knew this stuff isn't PC OK anymore 7 years later anywhere...or so our spooks kosher controlled media tells us.Maybe that's the true spoiler alert IMDb is so desperately trying to keep us from seeing? By having all the negatives reviews of this classic comic gem being shown first here online?
I probably like "Meet The Parents" as much as the next person (i.e. sorta kinda) but dear God, how did they ever squeeze a trilogy out of such a thin premise? Having Robert De Niro play a strict father-in-law is a great fetch, but six hours of it? Credit where credit is due: "Meet The Fockers" at least gave us the illusion that it wasn't completely useless. I mean, it didn't actually add anything to the original's happy ending, but at least it had its funny moments and also bothered to answer the question "who the hell names their kid Gaylord?". "Little Fockers" can't even give you something like that and feels satisfied with being a discount version of the first one. Greg is still neurotic, Jack is still paranoid and Pam still has no character traits whatsoever, you've seen it all before and it doesn't even distract you with jokes. Seriously, I've never seen a comedy that so rarely tries to go for a laugh. There are like two or three attempts at big set pieces throughout the movie (all fail), the rest is just endless bickering to pad out the running time. Pretty much everyone involved deserves a lot better than this.
MEET THE PARENTS: LITTLE FOCKERSAs comedies go, these are not too bad. And part 3 is pretty much the same.Again it is about Ben Stiller playing Gaylord Focker trying to impress his father in law Jack, played again by Robert DeNiro. Jack has a mild heart attack and tells Gaylord (Greg) that when he dies he will have to step up and be the leader of the family. He will have to be... The Godfocker! Greg, taking this too seriously starts to make decisions about his family etc... The problem is, Jack has suspicions that Greg is cheating on his daughter because he is working hard and they have twins. Jack believes that Greg and his daughter are not finding time for each other... but it all goes wrong for Greg when Jack find him in the arms of a drunken work colleague.The acting is a little over the top in this film, but then it is like that in all of Ben Stiller's movies. I am not a huge fan of his, but I don't mind him. Robert DeNiro is a legend. He has made a lot of classic movies.As I mentioned before, this is part 3of a trilogy. And it is as good as the others. I like these films, but I don't think there are many laugh out loud moments in any of them. They are very entertaining and very amusing though.The cast list is impressive again in this movie. Ben Stiller, Robert DeNiro, Owen Wilson, Dustin Hoffman, Barbara Streisand, Jessica Alba and Laura Dern. This is turning into the Expendables for the comedy genre. :) If they made another one, who would be in it?Anyway, I will give this film 6 out of 10.I liked it as much as the other 2 and together they do make an entertaining trilogy. Let's just hope they don't make any more. They will push it too far and people will start to get bored.For more reviews, please like my Facebook page:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Ordinary-Person-Movie- Reviews/456572047728204?ref=hl
