Meet the Fockers? - Rather not.

The sequel to the popular Meet the Parents is watchable albeit on DVD only. It looks a little overboard in terms of the storyline. Splendid performers like Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand being wasted in this comic family drama. I do not consider Ben Stiller to be a great performer so he of course has been used excellently in a doofus comedy that does full justice to his talent or lack of it. Robert De Niro should stick to the Analyze This types rather than this brand of comedy.

My Take - Huh! ■■■■■

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is a well crafted movie. I had to see the original after my disastrous viewing of Charlie and the Chocolate factory"". This one is much better and more believable than the remake. Gene Wilder is wonderful so is Peter Ostrum as Willy Wonka and Charlie Bucket respectively. The truth of the matter is please leave the classics as they are, do not remake them atleast not in a way that people get to see your incompetence. Also, I'm glad that now I have my own personal copy of the film on DVD. This one is a not to miss especially if the kid in you is still alive and of course if you like chocolates.

My Take - Yeah! ■■■■■

Monster in Law

Monster in Law is a classic Saas Bahu (Mother in Law - Daughter in Law) relationship played by the ever so young Jane Fonda and the Oh so hot Jennifer Lopez. Insecurities about the one man, Michael Vartan, in their lives - son and fiance respectively is narrated well. I wouldn't go and suggest that this is a must watch, but it is a decent movie to pass your time. J Lo does well in movies of this type where she ends up playing a poor girl thrust in a rich mans world.

My Take - Hmmm! ■■■■■
