Little Fockers

Little <SPAN id=Little Fockers 2010:

    Jack Byrnes has just received crushing news, his son-in-law, Dr. Bob has cheated on his daughter and they have separated.  How could this have happened on his "watch."  This means he will have to put his other son-in-law under a more intense microscope to prevent a second family breakdown.  Gregg and Pam Focker have been married 10 years now and they have twins, a girl and a boy.  Gregg is still working as a nurse but in management, money is tight and he takes a second job as a drug spokesperson, the only downside is that he is working with beautiful former nurse, Andi Garcia.
    Jack and his wife Dina go to visit the Focker's to celebrate a birthday for the twins.  Now is the time to really investigate everything about Gregg, finances, marriage, parenting, co-workers, no stone will be left unturned.  This will take snooping, following, watching closely at all times.
    Pam's former flame Kevin is still in the picture, he shows up while they are having dinner at home with the bad news that his marriage proposal to his girlfriend has been turned down.  He is still the perfect shining star and the one that Pam should've married in Jack's eyes.
    Gregg plans to hold the birthday party in the backyard of their new house but construction isn't finished and a very large hole remains in the yard.  Kevin offers to hold the party at his place and it's an over-the-top, out-of-this world, nothing spared party!!  Jack and Gregg have become so touchy with each other that they start fist fighting, they continue until Jack has a heart attack.
    This movie has some very funny episodes, you really want Jack to get out the lie detector test again.  Gregg's parents also come to the party and they are still over-the-top.  The critics say this movie is lazy and the worst of the 3 installments?  3 1/2* (I liked this movie)
