Now that Greg Focker is "in" with his soon-to-be in-laws, Jack and Dina Byrnes, it looks like smooth sailing for him and his fiancée, Pam. But that's before Pam's parents meet Greg's parents, the Fockers. The hyper-relaxed Fockers and the tightly-wound Byrneses are woefully mismatched from the start, and no matter how hard Greg and Pam try, there is just no bringing their families together. This all adds up to a disastrously funny time of getting to know you.

Critics Consensus

Talented cast is wasted as the movie is content with recycling jokes from its predecessor, Meet the Parents.

Amy Simmons

Time Out

This sequel's title indicates the content: smutty, silly and liable to make you smirk despite yourself.

Empire Magazine

Fans of the first will find some amusement in familiarity, but with such a comically able cast this is a missed opportunity.

Rated: 2/5

Nathan Rabin

AV Club

Meet The Fockers has assembled a historic, once-in-a-lifetime cast, then stranded them in the laziest, most mercenary kind of sequel imaginable. It's like the 1927 Yankees taking on the Special Olympics softball team.

Midwest Film Journal

Even though it stretches too thin sometimes, "Meet the Fockers" is a sequel that works at levels similar to and different from its source and another comedic meeting you won’t mind taking.

Rated: 3/4

Deep Focus Review

[The sequel] shamelessly carbon copies jokes and the plot structure from its predecessor.

Box Office Prophets

It's an unimaginative comedy, with occasionally effective scenes interspersed with flat retreads of the original's jokes.

Rated: 5/10

This is one of those rare sequels that is just as good as the original. It's got a star studded cast that works really well together to make a really funny movie ✌️
