Movie #856 ........................."We're the Millers"

Movie #856 "We're the Millers" I watched the other night (red boxed it) and was a bit disappointed.  I had seen the opening set up in the movie theatre one day when I was early to another movie, and so I had it on my list to complete it some day.  Well, the film started out pretty well, dumb premise but the cast seemed winning so I was willing to suspend belief as long as it was laughable, but it crashed and burned quite quickly.......until it got way too long and had one too many fight scenes.  Too many high points for me.  The ending was okay; it was the getting there that I thought was not-so-good (okay, I'm holding back, downright awful in some parts)  What did they pay for Anniston to be in this?  I bet she was a bit disappointed, too.  It's cast well; it's just an awful script --- that is funny in just a few places.  Not worth a recommendation, in my estimation.  And it's definitely an R.














We're the Millers2013R110 minutes     I gave it 2.9 stars out of 5.
