The movie Little Fockers was absolutely terrible. Despite a star-studded cast featuring Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson, Little Fockers was 98 minutes of terrible comedy and awkward moments.
Following the plot from its two previous movies (Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers), Little Fockers is about the quest of Jack Byrnes (played by Robert De Niro), the family patriarch, to find himself a replacement and lay the burden of being the "GodFocker" (his nickname for the family patriarch) upon his son-in-law Greg Focker (played by Ben Stiller). All the while Kevin Rawley (played by Owen Wilson) is trying to destroy Greg Focker's marriage with Pam Focker (played by Teri Polo) making for some very awkward and heart-breaking moments.
While I will admit there were some funny scenes, there are far better comedy movies out there. The Little Fockers plot was stale and pushed the already questionable Focker family series too far. Save your money, wait for the DVD, and if you don't see it at all, consider it my late Christmas present to you.
