A Decent Entertainer!

A remake of the original 1979 cult classic, 'The In-Laws' is A Decent Entertainer, that doesn't bore. Sure, it's not all-out funny & gripping, but it arrests your attention & provides fair entertainment nevertheless.

'The In-Laws' Synopsis: Right before his daughter's wedding, a mild-mannered foot doctor discovers that his new in-laws are international smugglers.

'The In-Laws' has its moments for sure. In the first-hour, especially, there are some really nice sequences. The second-hour, does lose pace, but it doesn't drag, thankfully. The Screenplay is fast-paced, but it could've been tighter in the second-hour. Andrew Fleming's Direction is fair. Cinematography & Editing are functional.

Performance-Wise: Michael Douglas & Albert Brooks deliver superbly. Both of the veteran actors, also share a striking on-screen chemistry from start to end. Ryan Reynolds is passable. Lindsay Sloane is good. Robin Tunney does fairly well. Maria Ricossa & Candice Bergen support well.

On the whole, 'The In-Laws' is a decent watch.

Hit and miss comedy

Melissa Peyser (Lindsay Sloane) and Mark Tobias (Ryan Reynolds) are getting married. Her father Jerry (Albert Brooks) is a mild-mannered podiatrist. His father Steve (Michael Douglas) is a copier salesman or at least that's his cover. He's actually a deep cover CIA operative. Jerry stumbles onto Steve's secret operation and he is pulled into his crazy wild undercover chaos. The FBI is after them. There is a bad guy that likes Jerry. Steve has a side kick Angela Harris (Robin Tunney). Jerry is dragged along kicking and screaming.

It's an odd-couple pairing with Brooks and Douglas. Brooks has a few funny moments screaming and crying. The fact that none of his family believes him is somewhat annoying. It's a lot of hit and miss joking around. There is a lot that makes me roll my eyes. However there is enough laughs that I can barely cling to. Neurotic Brooks gives just enough to let this pass.

Extremely Funny

Steve Tobias (Michael Douglas) is an undercover and efficient CIA agent, supported by the lower-ranked CIA agent Angela Harris (Robin Tunney),and assigned in a dangerous and secret international mission. He is trying to retrieve a nuclear submarine and arrest some international drug dealers and smugglers. Steve is also a reckless and absent father. His son Mark (Ryan Reynolds) is a lawyer, who is going to get married with Melissa Peyser (Lindsay Sloane),the daughter of the housewife Katherine Peyser (Maria Ricossa) and Jerry Peyser (Albert Brooks),a conservative podiatrist of Chicago. Jerry is the opposite of Steve, being afraid of airplanes and living a routinely life. When the two families meet for a dinner in a Vietnamese restaurant to celebrate the forthcoming wedding, Jerry is mistakenly identified as a secret agent, turning his life upside-down. I found this movie extremely funny. The combination of Michael Douglas and Albert Brooks was amazingly (and even surprisingly) good. The performance of David Suchet, as the gay French drug dealer and criminal Jean-Pierre Thibodoux, is also excellent and very funny. KC and the Sunshine Band playing an old hit is also great and completes a highly recommended comedy. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): 'Até Que os Parentes Nos Separem' ('Until the Relatives Get Us Apart')
