4.0 out of 5 stars The In Laws 27 April 2004
Format:DVD
Two men with very different views have one thing in common. Their childrenare getting married to each others! One is a foot specialist (AlbertBrooks) and the other is apparently in the CIA (Michael Douglas). The filmhas a similar feel to "Analyse This" (with the two very oppositecharacters constantly meeting head on!). The film has a good love story, aslight spoof feel (especially with it's James Bond references), action,comedy and is great for a family, yet it never becomes tacky. The humourusually comes from situations which are just funny situations, none ofthis cruddy slapstick. The romance doesn't require you to reach for thebucket which is great! The action isn't just "for the lads" and it's agreat film to watch amongst friends or partners as well as the family.It's a feel good film. Very funny, well acted, well thought out andthroughably enjoyable.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps you on your toes 20 July 2005
By bernie VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
Well, the kids are getting married. As usual the in-laws-to-be come from different environments. How different you may ask? Well you will just have to watch and find out. The father of the bride Jerry Peyser (Albert Brooks) is a highly specialized doctor. His skills and training will come to play a crucial part in this story. The father of the groom Steve Tobias (Michael Douglas) is a fast paced, never home Xerox salesman. Jerry will soon find out how hectic the life of a Xerox salesman can be.

Crazy movie with "normalish" father of the bride (with phobias) meets "almost normal" father of the bridegroom. Two parents, miles apart in lifestyle, are thrown together when their son and daughter decide to marry. Michael Douglas is mixed up in a dodgy world as an undercover agent, trying to act normally for the sake of his son, and Albert Brooks, the bride's father, is nervous and exasperated at the strange behaviour of his precious daughter's father in law to be.

This is a fast moving movie with some surprising twists and turns and really unexpected appearances, first by David Suchet as you've never seen him before (quite different to his famous Poirot) very camp, and then by a popular band of the 1980s/1990s singing a well known song to which we can all sing along.

Dear Albert doesn't really have the body to show off a skimpy red pair of bathing trunks, but somehow he manages to end up doing all the things that don't come naturally to him, which is hilarious.

Apparently there was a previous film by the same name, which I haven't seen, but that is probably a good thing, as I really enjoyed this version and I have nothing to compare it to. It reminded me a little of "True "Lies".

No problem with the movie on DVD - good picture and sound.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dreadful
I watched about half an hour and gave up. I don't mind these contrived comedies especially when I'm tired and don't want to concentrate. However, this one got on my nerves.
