Guide Rating -  
Pros  •  "Spotlight on Location" Feature
•  Some of the funniest extra material on DVD
•  Robert DeNiro giggling

Guide Review
"Meet the Parents" Review/Recommendation
The combination of Robert DeNiro's and Ben Stiller's energy, chemistry and sense of timing make "Meet the Parents" one of the most entertaining films released in 2000. A true comic gem, "Meet the Parents" features DeNiro as an ex-CIA agent who takes an immediate disliking to his daughter's boyfriend, Greg Focker (Ben Stiller). Focker's so nervous about obtaining his future father-in-law's approval that he becomes a fumbling idiot, breaking urns, losing the family's cat, and practically single-handedly destroying his girlfriend's sister's wedding.

The DVD features an incredible collection of behind-the-scenes footage, cast and crew commentary, and outtakes that showcase DeNiro's sense of humor, and deleted scenes.
