David Burke is a pot dealer who is blackmailed into going to Mexico to pick up a big shipment of marijuana to smuggle back into the U.S. Realizing that a man travelling alone might draw attention, he asks his stripper neighbour Rose, naive teenage neighbour Kenny, and runaway punk girl Casey to tag along; together, they form "The Millers" family.
"We're the Millers" is a comedy movie that looks like it's not taking itself too seriously, but is actually very smart.
It delivers funny and sarcastic lines, and features interesting characters.
The latter are never one-dimensional; even the villains were likable, and minor ones have memorable lines ( "You know what I'm sayin' ? "). I mean, Mr. Gurdlinger bought an Orca because he's rich but he hates sports car, for crying out loud !
Memorable scenes include: a spider bite, a warehouse strip dance, and a "swingers" misunderstanding in a tent.
The film also subtly makes fun of families who go on holiday to "exotic" places and indulge in all the clichés.
Do not forget to watch the end credits, there is a funny bloopers reel; "Friends" fans especially will like it.
