It has taken 10 years, two little Fockers with wife Pam and countless hurdles for Greg to finally get in with his tightly wound father-in-law, Jack. After the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, Jack's suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back. When Greg and Pam's entire clan descends for the twins' birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he's fully capable as the man of the house.
Little Fockers was met with near-universal contempt from critics, who saw it as a franchise running entirely on fumes. The cast's comic talents are largely squandered by a script that recycles the same domestic-humiliation formula without the energy or invention that made the original work.
“There are inevitably moments when Hoffman or Wilson get a laugh, but on the whole, it's the same again, but weaker and with fewer good jokes.”
