Leave your thoughts about Meet the Parents.
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranDe Niro and Stiller combine to bring on laughs you don't have to feel guilty about. |
| Los Angeles Daily NewsBob StraussDe Niro, once again proving that he understands comedy as well as urban psychoses. |
| Reeling ReviewsRobin CliffordAn entertaining little outing, but not something that will stay with me. |
| Bullz-Eye.comJamey CoddingA definite must-see that's perfect for a guys' night out or a relaxing date. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekContains enough belly-laughs and sly jokes to become one of the bigger crowd-pleasers of the fall. |
| TIME MagazineRichard SchickelAlas, poor Focker. He can't help himself. And we can't help ourselves from falling about, equally helpless, at this superbly antic movie. |

| USA TodaySusan WloszczynaWith near-Swiss precision, director/producer Jay Roach and his writers make sure familiarity breeds hilarity. |
