1st, let me give a shout out to Jason Sudeikis for repping an Arthur Bryant’s tee. What a badass.
He plays a successful, white collar (customers) weed dealer. He gets robbed in the aftermath of helping out a weird kid (Will Poulter) who lives in his building. The kid was in turn helping out a homeless girl (Emma Roberts) who sleeps in the area. So Jason ends up owing his boss about $40,000 (they stole his drugs and money). The boss (Ed Helms) tells him he can make it back and make more if he’ll go to mexico and bring in a shipment to the US.
Jason doesn’t think he can pull this off, until some tourists give him the idea to sneak in and out of Mexico disguised as a fake family complete with RV. He enlists the two kids who got him robbed and a stripper who also lives in his building (Jenifer Aniston) to play his fake family, the Millers.
I laughed my ass off watching this movie. The family all hate each other (except Will) so well. Ed Helms is hilarious as a crime boss. Jenifer Aniston takes her clothes off. I think Emma Roberts will tear some shit up in the future, she’s game and funny. Will can pull off the most retarded facial expressions of a non mongoloid I have yet seen. Surprise cameo by Ron Swanson. And for the final reason to see this film, this sentence is uttered:
“Hey buddy, I’m going to let you in on a little secret, I’m like an amazing sculptor; I’ve been working on it all day; it’s an orca and he’s breaching and I’m balls deep in his blow hole .”
The laughs in this movie come out of the blue. You won’t expect the direction. I quite liked it.
Good comedy fare.
