It’s just that it’s the kind of comedy that’s as likely to have you gnawing your fist in an agony of embarrassment as it is to make you laugh.

Meet the Parents isn’t as funny as There’s Something About Mary, nor as outrageous. But it confirms that Ben Stiller is the best of today’s young practitioners of frustration comedy.

Star-driven comedy at times offensive and funny.

TIME Magazine
Alas, poor Focker. He can’t help himself. And we can’t help ourselves from falling about, equally helpless, at this superbly antic movie.
