Meine Frau, ihre Schwiegereltern und ich (2004)

Meine Frau, ihre Schwiegereltern und ich: Directed by Jay Roach. With Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, Dustin Hoffman, Barbra Streisand. All hell breaks loose when the Byrnes family meets the Focker family for the first time.

“In Meet The Parents Ben Stiller had to win the trust of Robert DeNiro and Blythe Danner the parents of his girl friend Teri Polo, that famed u0026#39;circle of trustu0026#39; in the Byrnes family. Now the whole family is going to Florida where Stilleru0026#39;s parents the Fockers have a palatial estate and ideas that definitely run counter to those espoused by DeNiro.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThat opposition is the basis of the wonderful comedy in this sequel to Meet The Parents. With the casting of Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand as Stilleru0026#39;s parents, Meet The Fockers is as funny, maybe funnier than the original film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eA whole lot of Focker family secrets are exposed in this comedy and with three of the biggest movie names in the past 40 years in the cast there was definitely built in box office. DeNiro, Hoffman, and Streisand show some incredible comic timing in this film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThereu0026#39;s nothing these two families agree on. Even down to the fact that Hoffmanu0026#39;s a dog person and DeNiro a cat person is humorous material. The cat turning on the dog in the DeNiro/Danner trailer is a memorable scene.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAnother favorite of mine are the touch football sequence. I doubt Kennedy family touch football was ever like this. Thereu0026#39;s also a memorable encounter with a Barney Fife like deputy where DeNiro, Hoffman, and Stiller all go to the pokey. Oddly enough Danner and Streisand hit it off well. Streisand is a sex therapist and makes good money doing it as we see by the way the Fockers live. In fact Hoffman though a lawyer became a stay at home dad. That really gets super macho DeNirou0026#39;s dander up.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFans of any and all of the players here should make Meet The Fockers a must for your viewing list.”
