Verdict: In all honesty, it's between the 'Bonding' and the bonding that the differences between the two films lie - some of them improvements, some falling inescapably short of the original. BUT, as far as remakes go, this one could be a heck of a lot worse! As usual, Brooks is nothing less than hilarious, while Michael Douglas is his typical cocky self, but luckily 'The In-Laws' does stand on its own as a very funny comedy that borrows the original premise and runs off in a different direction. By the end, 'The In-Laws' is a lightweight source of entertainment that maximizes humor and minimizes serious stuff.
