The comedy franchise follows the titular Greg Focker (Ben Stiller), who suffers a series of unfortunate events while meeting his girlfriend’s parents, and in the sequel, hell breaks loose when their parents meet each other for the first time.<\/p>\n Now, over two decades after their theatrical release, Meet the Parents (2000) and Meet the Fockers (2004) are officially coming to Netflix on May 1. Both movies are currently streaming on STARZ.<\/p>\n Meet the Parents also stars Robert De Niro, Blythe Danner, Teri Polo, James Rebhorn, Jon Abrahams, Owen Wilson, Phyllis George, Kali Rocha, Nicole DeHuff, Thomas McCarthy, and Mark Hammer, while Meet the Fockers introduces Dustin Hoffman, Barbra Streisand, Tim Blake Nelson, Alanna Ubach, Ray Santiago, Shelley Berman, Spencer Pickren, Bradley Pickren, and Cedric Yarbrough.<\/p>\n Meet the Parents received positive reviews, resulting in an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score, with critics calling it a sharp and funny take on family dynamics, largely thanks to the strong chemistry between its two leads, despite occasionally feeling like a sitcom. It also has a 79% audience score.<\/p>\n On the other hand, Meet the Fockers received negative reviews, resulting in a 38% Rotten Tomatoes score, with critics claiming that the sequel rehashes jokes from its predecessor rather than offering anything new. It has a 58% audience score.<\/p>\n However, both movies were big hits at the box office. Meet the Parents made over $330 million worldwide against its $55 million production budget, the seventh-highest-grossing movie of 2000<\/a>.
