"We're The Millers" starring Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston. This movie is about a small time pot dealer named David Clark (Sudeikis) who gets wrangled into a plot to smuggle thousands of pounds of marijuana from Mexico into the United States. In an attempt to allude the border patrol he creates a fake family as his "cover". They cross the border without many problems but then run afoul of a Mexican drug lord they had unwittingly crossed. Along the way David bonds with the faux family (played by Aniston, Emma Roberts and Will Poulter) he had created, they end up filling the sense of family he had been missing in his life. While I doubt this one wins any awards, I enjoyed it, there were plenty of laughs and it moved briskly. I think it's probably my favorite role for Sudeikis, he's usually a bit over the top on most of his roles, but he really found his grove in this one, he did a nice job. Let me add, it's also hard to not like a movie in which Jennifer Aniston plays a stripper, just saying. Supporting characters Ed Helms, Nick Offerman, Kathryn Hahn, Mark L Young and Laura-Leigh also provide some memorable moments. If you're looking for a few laughs give it a watch.
I will give this movie 3 out of 5 stars (*****).
