Randy Newman's opening song, "A Fool in Love," perfectly sets up the movie that follows. The lyrics begin, "Show me a man who is gentle and kind, and I'll show you a loser," before praising the man who takes what he wants. Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) is the fool in love in Meet the Parents. Just as he's about to propose to his girlfriend Pam (Teri Polo), he learns that her sister's fiancé asked their father, Jack Byrnes (Robert De Niro), for permission to marry. Now he feels the need to do the same thing. When Greg meets Jack, he is so desperate to be liked that he makes up stories and kisses ass rather than having the courage of his convictions. It doesn't take an elite member of the CIA to see right through Greg, but that's precisely what Jack is. Directed by Jay Roach (the Austin Powers movies), Meet the Parents is an incredibly well-crafted comedy that stands in nice opposition to, say, the sloppy extremes of the Farrelly brothers. Stiller is great at playing up the uncomfortable comedy of errors, balancing just the right amount of selfishness and self-deprecating humor, while De Niro's Jack is funny as the hard-ass father who just wants a few straight answers from the kid. What makes the Jack character all the funnier is Blythe Danner as his wife, the Gracie to his George Burns, who is the true heart of the movie. Oh, and Owen Wilson turns in yet another terrific comic performance as Pam's ex-fiancé. --Andy Spletzer

Customer Reviews:

Two very funny movies!.......2007-01-04

The duo set of `Meet the Parents' and `Meet the Fockers' is a nice addition and a good buy if you don't already own one or the other. Both of them are funny in their own rights, but truth be told, if you haven't seen `Meet the Parents' then you will miss most of the jokes in `Meet the Fockers'. To me the first film is still the better of the two, although the second film has the whole rubber boob scene which is more than hysterical. All in all these are two very funny movies that most everyone can enjoy. Highly recommended.

he's a male nurse..........2005-06-23

Wow, these two comedies are some of the best I have ever seen in my entire life. First off, the price for these two is UMBELIEVABLY LOW and these movies will just have you on the floor with tears, you'll be laughing so much.
Meet the parents is the story of Ted, the male nurse who is wishes to get married to his true love Pam. But, first, he goes with her on a vacation to her parents' house. There, Jack and Dina Burns get to meet him. But Jack, played beautifully by Robert De Niro used to work in the FBI and is worried about Ted who is unaware that this is his real proffession. The weekend goes terribly wrong as Ted gets put under Jack's lie ditector, burns down an altar, loses the "gifted" family cat, Jinxie, breaks Pam's engaged sister's nose and much more. Beleive me, it's a real treat for the whole family and is absolutely hilarious. I especially like the ending when Ted addresses a flight attendant who tells him that his bag can't fit in the over hand compartement.
It goes something like this:
Her: Sir, you're going to have to check that.
Him: No! Your stupid airlines already lost my bag and it really screwed things up.
Her: Sir, I can guarantee that it will be safely put below with all of the other luggage.
Him: Oh, can you guarantee that? Are you personally going to take my bag with the guys with the earmuffs and put it down below? ETCCCCC
You get the picture, but I didn't even give away the best part of that scene which is the last things that he says.
In the the sequel, Pam and her parents go to meet Ted's parents. I actually probably liked the sequel better, which is definitely something to say! Of course, things go awry with the over agressive dad (hilarious football scene)and the mom that's a sex therapist. Well anyway, I don't want to give anything away but it's trully hilarious. 1 example is when Ted's dad call him Gay (short for his full name, Gaylord Focker) and has a wall prepared which makes Jack say: "I didn't even know that they made 12th place ribbons!" And the cat flushes their dog down the toilet! Anyway, I don't want to give too much away but believe me it's hilarious and can be loved by all ages!

Product Description

To the horror of prudes everywhere, American Pie 2 is even funnier than its popular predecessor, pushing the R rating with such unabashed ribaldry that you'll either be appalled or surprised by its defiant celebration of the young-adult male libido. Females will be equally shocked or delighted, because like American Pie this appealing, character-based comedy puts the women in control while offering a front-row view of horny guys in all their dubious glory. Which is to say, American Pie is mostly about sex--or, to be more specific, breasts, genitalia, "potential" lesbianism, blue silicone sex toys, crude methods of seduction, "the rule of three" (just watch the movie), a shower of "champagne," phone sex, tantric sex, and, oh yeah... superglue. In the case of college freshman Jim (Jason Biggs), performance anxiety plagues his upcoming reunion with sexy Czech exchange student Nadia (Shannon Elizabeth), but his buddies from American Pie have a solution: rent a Lake Michigan beach house for the summer, throw wild parties to lure the local "hotties," and score big-time. Beach Party this ain't: blessed with a complete cast reunion from AP1 (including Eugene Levy as Jim's dad), this sequel is anything but innocent, and with the exception of drugs (which are conspicuously absent), pretty much anything goes. The gags are almost nonstop, and director J.B. Rogers (recovering from his debut debacle Say It Isn't So) handles them with laudable precision, allowing his young cast (particularly Biggs, who epitomizes comedic good sportsmanship) to run with lines that most people wouldn't dare utter aloud. The result is a liberating and eminently good-natured comedy that needn't apologize for its one-track mind
