We're The Millers

What do you get when you take 4 people from all walks of life that have absolutely nothing in common, and throw them together for an adventure of a lifetime?  You get "We're The Millers," and let me tell you, it was a great combination of characters, real-life actors, and the perfect formula for non-stop laughs!!

The movie is about a drug dealer (Jason Sudeikis), the fake family he creates so he can safely (and without drawing any suspicion) cross the Mexican/American border with a RV full of illegal substances, and the journey/adventures they encounter as a result.  Enter the wife (Jennifer Aniston) and his fake kids (Will Poulter and Emma Roberts).  

Rating:  3.5/5 stars

I will warn you now if you have sensitive ears; as there is definitely some serious profanity and middle finger usage in this movie (but not nearly as bad as in "The Heat.")  And, the more previews you see before the release date (8/7), the more jokes and funny scenes you'll see.  BUT, even after the previews that I saw, the movie still had a LOT of funny moments and lines, and I was looking forward to the parts I already knew about.  And I was really glad that the movie didn't go in a "sappy" or unpredictable direction.  The movie also stars Ed Helms (Stu from Hangover), and he was funny as usual.  I was reminded a lot of "The Hangover" with some of the scenes.  

Yup, good job on this one, Hollywood!! :-)
