Review

"We're the Millers" follows a drug-dealer's attempt to carry a great deal of marijuana over the Mexican border while using people from his neighborhood to forge a fake family.  This movie had some pretty good laugh-out-loud moments.  However, as a whole, it is not one of the funniest movies I've ever seen (i.e. Tropic Thunder). 

Jason Sudeikis was perfect for the role as a drug-dealer turned head-of-household.  His look and demeanor could really pull off the duality of this character pretty well.  I love Jennifer Aniston...and thought she had a smoking hot body in "The Break-Up," but she is no stripper.  I say that solely for the complete lack of good "stripper moves."  Yes, she can move her hips in a circle, but beyond that, I was highly disappointed in her performance as a stripper.

Will Poulter, who plays the son in the film (Kenny), definitely carried some of the most hilarious moments of the film, and for that, his career will probably pick up a lot due to this movie.

See this film for a few laughs, but don't expect anything side-splitting.
