Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Robert Denerstein, Denver Rocky Mountain News: Read more
Susan Stark, Detroit News: With all due respect to giggles, though, you would do better to rent Raging Bull. Read more
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News: With Meet the Parents, mainstream Hollywood reclaims one of its former strengths. It proves that it still knows how to provide audiences with a good time. Read more
Elvis Mitchell, New York Times: None of the jokes are forced, which makes Meet the Parents a singular achievement. Read more
Bob Longino, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: This fall's pleasant surprise. Read more
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: Possibly the most amusing mainstream live-action comedy since There's Something About Mary. Read more
Lisa Alspector, Chicago Reader: Scenes that should have been uproarious are weaker than many of the movie's smaller moments, whose everyday humor isn't specific to the plot or characters. Read more
Eric Harrison, Houston Chronicle: Within its formulaic confines, the humor works uncommonly well from time to time. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: Meet the Parents doesn't sparkle like Vincente Minnelli's Father of the Bride. But with bubbly adult comedies at such a premium, it goes down like a flute of Champagne, leaving an aftertaste of giggles. Read more
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail: When the script puts its faith in the audience, allowing us to find the laughs on our own, the film is irresistible, a bright lark. Yet when the writers panic, upping the antic volume and shifting into crazed sitcom gear, the lark stops. Read more
Peter Rainer, New York Magazine/Vulture: I had a good time at Meet the Parents, even though the ratio of clinkers to yucks is disproportionately high. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: Even with Stiller and De Niro, Meet the Parents is an encounter that can be postponed until it's available on video. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: Meet the Parents builds brilliantly on interlocking comic situations. Read more
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com: [Roach] does know how to stage discrete comic moments, taking mildly humorous nightmares and turning them into nicely wrought miniatures. Read more
Bob Graham, San Francisco Chronicle: Robert De Niro and Ben Stiller give the comedy of disaster a nice little workout. Read more
Richard Schickel, TIME Magazine: Alas, poor Focker. He can't help himself. And we can't help ourselves from falling about, equally helpless, at this superbly antic movie. Read more
Jessica Winter, Village Voice: Watching Ben get the girl or be seriously injured trying always has its dry, keening pleasures. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: Roach ... knows to play to the movie's twin strengths: Stiller and De Niro. Read more
