Dustin Hoffman was absolutely adorable, ever since Kung Fu Panda I can't hear his voice without thinking of Shifu, which ups his cute factor too. Barbara Streisand is looking fabulous and so is Blythe Danner. It was nice to see Laura Dern, she always makes me nostalgic for Jurassic Park. Plus she was married to Ben Harper and I like that one song of his. Jessica Alba was beyond annoying, which I know was kind of the part she was supposed to play, but I think she took the role to unnecessarily annoying. And Robert DeNiro is a legend, and I really like the character of Jack Byrnes in all three of the Focker movies, but I was really embarrassed for him when he had a pop-tent (ahem). Nothing is worth those laughs when you are as iconic as DeNiro, plus it has been done before. The kids were cute, and Owen Wilson was just the right amount of strange. An unexpected appearance from Harvey Keitel was nice, but his storyline is never really developed. I still liked the dynamic between Stiller and DeNiro, and the Focker jokes weren't too over done. This one was not as good as the first two, but not as bad as I thought it would be.
Watchable.
