In your opinion is this a must own movie?


In your opinion, is this a movie you have to own or is this a movie that you would just watch on tv if it was on?

reply

Yes. I own it and just love this movie so much. It's so funny. I don't own Meet The Fockers yet. I don't know if I'll buy it or not. But this first one is definitely a must own in my book. It's a classic comedy.

reply

Must own for me because I love to pop it in the dvd player when I wanna laugh.

reply

We just watched it again after many years and it's laugh out loud funny as before. Deniro and Stiller play off each other so well.

reply

Yes, a must own. I saw it in the theater the day it was released and laughed throughout the whole film with my friends. The whole theater loved it. I watch the blu-ray every 2 or 3 years and it's great every time

reply

Every time it comes on, I have to watch it through.

Reminder: The O.C. resets to its first episode on POP network April 1 @ 2 p.m. EST

No. I hated it. Check it out for yourself.

I made the mistake of renting this ... I hated it. I hate all movies like this. They are not funny, the events are contrived, the humor is juvenile ... there is nothing redeeming about them, and they are usually just very badly done.

I contrast that with a movie like Parenthood, the first one anyway, it was very similar in style and substance, but it was funny, and human, and connected well with the audience. These movies are just hoaky .... or is it hokey?
