Alycia M. Not my kind of comedy. If they all told the truth a tiny bit more and were proud of who they are as a person… Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/21/25 Full Review tommy J A great movie that led to more fun movies. I have nipples Gerg, can you milk me? Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Ed R Very forced humor with an A-List cast of stars. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/16/25 Full Review Nic S “Meet the Parents” is a lighthearted, fun watch about the universal experience of meeting your soon-to-be in-laws, readily equipped with a skeptical mindset, whilst they highly judge everything little thing you do juxtaposing their own all-mighty expectations of what they think their kid deserves. The premise is uber relatable and has not really been touched upon in film, which gives “Meet the Parents” the unique position of trend-setting into this foray. Robert de Niro is highly acclaimed for gritty, serious performances for decades, yet his turn to being the reluctant and protective father in this light comedy is quite brilliant. The film also plays around with the former aspect creating a great mix, speaking to a new side of the actor. Ben Stiller’s character is a regular dude who sadly gets made fun of for trivial things with a trail of bad luck close behind, but manages to keep moving forward for his partner. The comedy is grounded in reality alongside scenarios that happen in life. The understated and subtle direction this film opts for only further creates the bundle of laughs and even more investment into the story, as we can see ourselves planted in these happenings so clearly. The filmmakers could have gone so over the top with wacky, one-note characters or out of this world scenarios. The fact that the film takes itself seriously and keeps it real, the stakes feel high. With every misstep or sorry occurrence, we, as the audience, are simultaneously at the edge of our seat for what’s coming next.
