Rating: - The Home Security Department is beyond laughability
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.

Rating: - Simply Great
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.....
Rating:  - The Out-Laws
A fairly decent movie. I like Michael Douglas and Albert Brooks so I wasn't disappointed in this version. I must admit though that Peter Falk as the CIA agent and Alan Arkin as the father of the bride in the original cracked me up far more than this remake. Falk was just funnier than Douglas as the screwy out of control agent that you were never sure was legit. Brooks although pretty amusing as the father of the bride reacting to Douglas was not as over the top freaked as Arkin was by Falk. So if you enjoyed this movie, be sure to check out the original version with Falk and Arkin.
Synopsis: A father of the bride finds out the father of the son his daughter is marrying is a secret agent. He is taken by the agent to another country on a supposed sanctioned mission that is to be a quick easy in and out. When he is exposed to gunfire, a crazy dictator, and questions if it is a sanctioned government mission, and if the agent is sane and working for the government. Then it gets very fast and very funny.
