NotesRobert de Niro and Ben Stiller may star in this twisted comedy about a young man's unfortunate relationship with his fiancée's father, but it's singer/songwriter Randy Newman who's most attuned to the sardonic side on the soundtrack. 'A Fool in Love', with it's wicked choir of voices taunting and Newman singing along, takes cupid's arrow and twists it ever so mercilessly. Covers of Fats Domino's 'Poor Me' and Preston Foster's 'Got My Mojo Working' are hard-nosed piano numbers, but mostly it's Newman leading an orchestra through his wry sense of humor. Universal. 2006.
