It won't steal any thunder from the 1979 original, but this breezy remake of The In-Laws offers a few solid laughs. It's blessed by the casting of Albert Brooks as one of two imminent fathers-in-law who embark on the proverbial "wacky misadventure" on the eve of a lavish family wedding. The veteran comedian plays a podiatrist (in the dentist role originated by Alan Arkin) and Michael Douglas (in Peter Falk's role) is a deep-cover agent for the CIA, unbeknownst to Brooks or his daughter, who's about to marry Douglas's son--an event also attended by Douglas's ex-wife (Candice Bergen), who remains spiteful despite her newfound Buddhist enlightenment. As an arms dealer targeted by Douglas's latest covert operation, David Suchet matches Brooks laugh-for-laugh in the movie's funniest scenes, but one drawback can't be avoided: Douglas simply isn't funny. But while the original In-Laws was arguably overrated, this remake, for all its faults, makes for an agreeable rainy-day pastime. --Jeff Shannon

Shellie L. Wells (holden, me usa)
I received the movie in a short amount of time. The description stated that it was like new. I received it but the movie stopped in a couple of places and I had to wait for it to start again. I do not believe that this movie was "like new"

The Home Security Department is beyond laughability June 28, 2008
Jacques COULARDEAU (OLLIERGUES France)
Don't ask me how they manage to bring a Soviet submarine in Lake Michigan just across from Chicago. When you start asking silly question you destroy the comedy and the Home Security Department is landing on your balcony, air borne and under-cover if not underwater. Because it is a comedy and nothing else. A silly comedy with spies from all over the world, planes that are hijacked, wrecked, or plain - funny for a plane - sacrificed. That's what happens when your father is a CIA agent at a third level of under-coverage, a triple under-cover-agent in one word. Just add to that a father in law who is a foot doctor who does not exactly like things slightly out of the ordinary because it is too exotic for his taste, like flying in a plane, taking a lift to a very high elevation, finding himself on the top panoramic floor of the highest skyscraper in Chicago, if not on the roof, getting down from up there with a parachute, making some noise to attract the attention of a torpedo while strutting around on Lake Michigan with a water scooter, a pedalo without pedals in a word but with a nice engine. But in spite of all the hullabaloo it is fun to have such a father and your bride is going to like every moment of it, especially when it goes with a lot of millions. And guess who is going to perform the wedding? Certainly not the Buddhist monk, the Jewish rabbi, or the Christian preacher whose denomination is not even mentioned. But you'll have to go check in the film itself because I am not going to say. One thing is important anyway for you and you better remember it: a father is unique and you have to take it the way it is, the way it comes, the way HE makes himself available because no one can change a father.

THE REAL REVIEW (I'm right here on Earth)
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
How could anybody not like this movie? I thought it was hilarious....fun...entertaining....
Good cast...good acting.....plenty of fun and outrageous scenes.
Might not be an academy award winner...but it gets 5 stars for meeting all of my criteria....a movie I can watch many, many times and still laugh and not be bored/tired of it....
Highly under rated in my opinion...somebody said it was the worst movie they ever saw?? LOL..they must not get out much as this certainly is good movie that should appeal to almost anybody....some may love it and some may only like it, but I do not see how anybody could rate this less then 3 stars.....
