The story
Sixteen years after Little Fockers, Greg Focker is on the other side of the in-law equation. His grown-up son Henry is engaged to Olivia Jones, a life coach and former FBI hostage negotiator, and Greg grows increasingly suspicious of his son's seemingly perfect future wife, while his own father-in-law Jack Byrnes is still watching.
Spoiler-free: only the set-up.
Who it suits
Fans of Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers who want more of the Greg and Jack rivalry, with Ariana Grande added to the mix. The CBFC certificate is not yet published, and the earlier films relied on adult humour.
