We're the Millers


After being robbed of a week's take, small-time pot dealer David is forced by his boss to go to Mexico to pick up a load of marijuana. In order to improve his odds of making it past the border, David asks the broke stripper Rose and two local teenagers to join him and pretend they're on a family holiday.

We're the Millers is going to make you laugh. The movie is more hilarious than you would think. You will be surprise how creative some of those "stupid", funny and ridiculous scenes are. Just go and see it so you can have a good summer laugh!

The plot was great and straight to the point. David Clark (Jason Sudeikis) creates a family as a disguise to help him pull off a huge drug smuggle. He finds a 'wife' (Jennifer Aniston) who is desperate for money, a 'daughter' (Emma Roberts) who is supposedly homeless, and a 'son' (Will Poulter) who is just an idiot who lives next door and is home alone with nothing better to do. The chemistry between these four characters really bought the film to life and they really did provide you with lots of laughs as the fake family, where it was all destined to go wrong but they got there in the end after some extremely awkward situations.

Jason Sudeikis was brilliant in the lead role and Jennifer Aniston (a stripper, :P) was almost as raunchy as she was in 2011 comedy, Horrible Bosses. But for me the star of the show was English actor Will Poulter, he was the one who gave me the most laughs and I think this will be seen as his 'break through'. He just really suited the role of the awkward teenage boy; his facial expressions were just brilliant. 
The girls did a great job. Emma as an angry teen with a big mouth and Jennifer as a sexy stripper with mother instincts. The supporting cast was also good and added even more comedy value, especially the Fitzgerald family who were just always in the way while 'The Millers' were trying to get back home. Then there was Scottie P who had a funny catchphrase. The characters were all extremely likable and 'The Millers' really did end up like a real family in the end which was quite heartwarming.

The jokes are crude, some parts are stupid and far fetched but this is a comedy and its meant to make you laugh, which it really does.


Love,

Dan
