I have never sat in a movie theater and literally boo’ed a trailer.
Until now.
It happens every time I see the promo for “Little Fockers.” (Yes, they went there.)
The very funny “Meet the Parents” movie beget the extremely mediocre sequel “Meet the Fockers.” (It’s like they thought a funny title would make up for everything the script was lacking.)
But instead of quitting while they were ahead, the producers churned out a third and what we can only hope is the concluding — please, please let it be the final — chapter in this tale of a highly dysfunctional blended family.
Based on the trailer for “Little Fockers,” mediocre may even be a stretch for this one.
How many times can we sit and watch Ben Stiller hurt and humiliate himself? DeNiro walk the line between cranky and cuckoo? Hoffman peacock?
And is this really Teri Polo’s only acting job?
The most frustrating thing for me is listening to all the people in the theater laugh at the promo. Judge for yourself.
Does it really take so little to tickle our funny bones?
I mean…fock.
