He is considered one of the best American actors since Marlon Brando. International fame and recognition were brought to him by roles in such productions as “Taxi driver”, “deer hunter”, “awakening”, “Cape of fear”, “positive thinking guide”, “Irishman” or “Blood Moon time”, for which he was nominated. The statuette has been awarded so far twice for the 2nd part of the “godfather” Francis Ford Coppola and a performance in the “furious bull”. Although he usually creates strong characters on the screen, his artistic achievements also have slightly less ambitious titles. One of them is comedy “Meet my parents” from 2004.
What is the movie “Meet my parents” about? The main character again faces a challenge
The main hero of the film is Greg Focker, and his life adventures give the story. After in the first part entitled “Meet my dad” Pam Byrnes proposed and convinced her despotic father Jacek and his mother Dina, he finally begins to plan her wedding. He is convinced that this time nothing will stand in his way until he realizes that before the ceremony he must familiarize future in -laws with his parents.
It would probably not be surprising if it wasn’t for the fact that the Fockers are They aged hippies, not paying special attention to moral principles. In a word, they are the total opposite of serious and distinguished Byrnes, which guarantees complications at the start. From the beginning, their meeting abounds in comical situations, which is the result of different views and looking at the world. However, this is only the beginning of a disaster that can definitely bury Greg’s dreams and marriage.
Not only de Niro. These stars were also in the cast “meet my parents”
Jay Roch is responsible for directing “Meet my parents”, who is also the creator of the first part. In turn, the sequel scenario was written by Jim Herzfeld, Marc Hyman and John Hamburg. The cast was a galaxy of Hollywood stars. At the side of De Niro, Ben Stiller and Teri Polo played the main roles. They also appeared on the screen Blythe Danner and Alanna Ubach. The success of the comedy is certified by the BOX Office results, because with a budget of $ 80 million earned over $ 522 million in the world. This is a lot more than the first installment, which consumed $ 55 million and brought the creators over 330 million profit.
Very good comedy. De Niro is brilliant!
A large dose of gags causes a good mood. It’s hard to compare this part with ‘one’, because for me they are great films with a similar level.
There is still a lack of masterpiece, but it’s nice to watch
– viewers wrote in the Filmweb portal, where the production received 6.7 stars from viewers and only 5.9 from critics. On the wave of unflagging popularity, the decision was finally made to implement another part of “Meet our family”, which cost the most, as much as $ 100 million, and earned the least, because over $ 310 million. If you haven’t seen this trilogy yet, now there is a great opportunity. Already on February 19, 2025 at 21:10 Polsat will broadcast “Meet my parents”. Will you watch?
