  • Lost luggage is an effective engine for repeated jokes, forcing uncomfortable clothes, the swimsuit and a mistaken bag containing a strap-on. — Kyle Brandt
  • Jack’s eye-pointing “I’m watching you” gesture remains effective. — Bill Simmons
  • Repeatedly calling Greg Focker still gets laughs, especially during volleyball. — Kyle Brandt
  • The teddy-bear camera anticipates ubiquitous hidden and doorbell cameras; pointing it at Dina adds a side gag. — Bill Simmons
  • Stiller calling Lil’ Kim “phat” evokes TRL-era slang. — Bill Simmons
  • Jack’s babysitter-monitoring business seems commercially plausible. — Bill Simmons
  • Teri Polo’s appearance receives praise. — Bill Simmons
  • Greg’s repeated bad decisions—flushing the toilet, letting Jinx out, smoking on the roof and substituting a painted cat—add rewatchable frustration. — Bill Simmons
