While being completely flimsy in
the practicality of the plot but utterly funny, We're the Millers will sure to
make you laugh quite a lot.
David Clark is a small time pot dealer
in the neighborhood. But his title is about to change to drug smuggler after he
is unintentionally pulled to a wicked plot to smuggle weed over the Mexican
border. While trying to figure out the best way to accomplish his assignment he
realizes that a happy family on vacation is the way to go. So he gathers up few
individuals and set up the fake family the Millers. But the drug smuggling business
turns out to be tougher than he expected.
The plot is one good reason for
making this movie watchable. It throws out some instant yet funny twists now
and then. And as mentioned before the humor (mostly adult) is good. Thought it
puts this movie on the long list of movies that actually make jokes about
sexuality to make an impression it does work here. But this is not another
American Pie or 21 Jump Street. It’s not that funny. We're the Millers is good
for casual watching. Come to think of it there are no comedies that you can actually
take serious. This one especially is no way near any kind of seriousness.
However it does a decent job and entertainment.
This one is directed by Rawson
Marshall Thurber. I’m not sure if that name rings a bell or I have seeing any
of his previous works that was good enough to remember. But We are the Millers is
showing good potential for better things to come by Rawson. And the part 2 is
already rumored and I hope he will do a fine job with that one too.
I liked the character of David
performed by Jason Sudeikis. He has previously done some fine funny roles in Horrible
Bosses (2011) and Hall Pass (2011). In this also his main role keeps up the
spirits. And then comes Jennifer Aniston, one of the most underrated yet
skilled actresses of the commercial cinema these days. It’s mind blowing how
good she looks in this. You have to see her doing ‘the dance’!
