Only funny if you're severely stoned and/or mentally challenged

Rating: 3/10 (9 August 2016)

So a friend with similar movie tastes to mine was very excited about this film. It hadn't even entered my radar, so I was quietly hopeful I might have an undiscovered gem on my hands. And when I read it was a stoner-action-comedy from director Marshall Rawson Thurber (Dodgeball) and writer Bob Fisher (Wedding Crashers), I was positively salivating! Cue: massive disappointment (and re-evaluation of a friendship).
The film starts promisingly enough. David (Sudeikis) is a middle-aged, middle-class, white-as-can-be pot dealer, looking for his big score. He devises a plan to ship a truckload of ganja across the Mexico-US border, and to allay any suspicion, recruits a bunch of misfits (including a pole-dancing Aniston) to pose as his fake suburban family.
While the premise is relatively original, it can't make up for the incredibly one-dimensional characters, poor dialogue, and cheap attempts at laughs that cater to the lowest common denominator Come to think of it, I don't know why I expected anything better. The fact that the protagonist is played by Jason Sudeikis (who? exactly) should have been a big red flag.
So if you're 13 years old and are a fan of such paragons of comedy like Two And A Half Men and The Big Bang Theory, then you'll probably love this pile of faeces. Otherwise, don't waste your time.
