What You Need To Know:

LITTLE FOCKERS is the third installment in the MEET THE PARENTS movie series. In this chapter, Ben Stiller’s character, Greg, and his wife Pam are settling into family life with their children. When Pam's sister announces that her husband is leaving for a younger woman, Greg's father-in-law, Jack (played by Robert De Niro), who has been suffering from heart complications, names Greg the next in line to take over the family. To solidify his position by making more money, Greg secretly takes an embarrassing job working as spokesman for an erectile dysfunction drug company. His father-in-law becomes suspicious and suspects Greg of having an affair with the company’s beautiful sales exec.

LITTLE FOCKERS is funny but inconsistent. It contains too much crude humor, some of it involving embarrassing comic violence. The major plot conflict feels episodic and more like a TV sitcom rather than a big-screen release. There’s also quite a bit of foul language, including comic references to the “f” word in the comic hero’s surname. Finally, the movie has a mixed pagan worldview. For example, one character combines New Age philosophies with quotes from Buddha and Jesus.

More Detail:

LITTLE FOCKERS is the third installment in the MEET THE PARENTS movie series.

In this chapter, Ben Stiller’s character, Greg, and his wife Pam are settling into family life with their children. When Pam’s sister announces that her husband is leaving for a younger woman, Greg’s father-in-law, Jack Byrnes (played by Robert De Niro), who has been suffering from heart complications, names Greg as the next-in-line to take over the family, the God-Focker.

In order to provide financial security for his wife and children and to solidify his position as the new head of the family, Greg takes a secondary job as a spokesman for a new erectile dysfunction drug. His new sales supervisor is a beautiful young sales exec played by Jessica Alba. However, due to the nature of his new job for ED medicine, Greg does not want to tell his in-laws of the job, which of course sets his overly suspicious father-in-law into action.

Soon, Jack is trailing Greg at every turn, spying on him and suspecting Greg of adulterous behavior with the beautiful, young sales exec, which would nullify Greg’s position as the next in line to lead the family.

LITTLE FOCKERS is funny but inconsistent, and it contains too much crude humor, especially since a major plot device revolves around an erectile dysfunction medication. The major plot conflict also feels episodic and more like a TV sitcom rather than a big-screen release. Also, the movie has many crude references to “f” words, which are substituted by the family’s surname. The movie has a mostly mixed, Pagan worldview. One character, for instance, combines New Age philosophies with quotes from Budda and Jesus. LITTLE FOCKERS also has quite a bit of foul language as well as some drunkenness and strong miscellaneous immorality, including a daughter who disrespects her father throughout the movie.
