We´re The Millers is a new comedy featuring Jason Sudeikis, and Jennifer Aniston. Sudeikis plays a drug dealer, who after losing his boss´s money (played by Ed Helms) is tasked with smuggling weed from Mexico over to the U.S.A. To do this Sudeikis hires Aniston, Emma Roberts, and Will Poulter to pretend they are a family and cross the border unnoticed.
First thing´s first: This movie is pretty funny. You laugh throughout the whole movie, and there are a couple of big laughs to be had here. I was surprised because after seeing the trailer I thought that it didn´t look all that funny. All of the actors did a great job, but my problem with the movie is that it was all too predictable. Even some jokes were kind of brought down a bit for me because I knew exactly what was going to happen next. There´s the annoying but good hearted family that always appear in this type of road trip movies, there´s the bad guys chasing them as usually happens when there are drugs involved, etc. It all feels familiar, but at least you can have a good laugh with it.
So while predictable, the movie still manages to be funny throughout, but this isn´t something that you have got to see in the theatre. It´s a good time, but it still has it´s problem here and there. I wasn´t sure what to rate We´re The Millers, but I´m going with a 3/5.
