This movie is not great—it lacks all the necessary things to make it a must-watch. But I have to say, I laughed all through the movie. There was a joke at every turn. The idea (to me) was different, but the execution was clichéd. Still, to be real, I enjoyed it a little bit too much, and I recommend that you watch it.

Hollywood has decided that if you want to see a PG-13 comedy, you should go watch the Disney Channel. Any comedy released today is full of sexual references and crude language. We’re the Millers is no different. There’s crude humor, high sexual references, and to add to that, some scenes are predictable.

We’re the Millers will not be well-received by many because it just looks like some writers came together, started a script, and forgot to carry it through the right path. So, what you have is a mix-up of what should be and what should not be. In the end, the movie is just a nice break from the regular crappy comedies we’re used to.

In the area of acting, Jennifer Aniston was just spectacular. She outshined her co-stars, and it was nice seeing her in a different light. In this movie, she plays Rose/Sarah, the stripper.

The movie’s plot is weird. A drug dealer, David Clark (Jason Sudeikis), is robbed of his money and stash, causing him to owe his supplier over $40,000.

His supplier decides to let David off the hook by cutting him a deal: he has to smuggle marijuana from Mexico. In the end, he’ll get a $100,000 payoff, and his debt will be cleared.

Realizing that one man attempting to get through customs will be too suspicious, he decides to hire a stripper named Rose (Jennifer Aniston), a runaway teenage girl named Casey (Emma Roberts), and his virgin 18-year-old neighbor Kenny (Will Poulter) to pose as a bogus family called the “Millers” so as not to arouse suspicion while crossing the border.

But as you’d expect, things just didn’t go as planned.

The movie did have surprises, though. Some events that occurred were just new to me. The movie also plays to the emotions a little—if you’re single, it can arouse a desire to have a family of your own.

I’ll be looking forward to seeing this movie again, and I advise you to give it a twirl. I do hope the movie gets a sequel.
