All About

Meet the Parents

How much you enjoy Meet the Parents will depend on how funny you find the following: (1) potty trained cats, (2) male nurses, (3) guys named Gaylord Focker. You'd better love that last one -- ''Focker'' is used as a punchline no fewer than 25 times. As male nurse Focker, Ben Stiller works hard to milk the generic gags for all they're worth. As his intimidating future father in law, a retired CIA agent, Robert De Niro merely squints and mugs like a bad De Niro impersonator.
