I want my money back

Rating: 1/10 (26 December 2014)

I'm not sure if I'm getting old and losing my sense of humor or I'm getting old and I've finally realized it takes more than sexist, rude, crude and crass comedy to entertain me. If being completely honest I'd like to think that I even in my younger days I still would not have found this funny as the majority to seem to. It seems as though I've finally found a film where I am out voted. We're the Millers is a story about how being wrong and soulless can lead to a deserving life. Jason Sudeikis (Horrible Bosses, Hall Pass) plays David Clarke a local neighborhood drug dealer dealing to everyone from the tidy business man down to the local thugs. He's not exactly big time money but earns enough to keep him happy. After being robbed by a couple of teen rough nuts he is pretty much told he needs to pay back the big boss or die, he must go to Mexico and pick up a small amount of herbs to repay his debt and clear his name. Knowing all too well that getting across the border in a RV by himself will cause a lot of suspicion he enlists the help of a stripper neighbor named Rose played by Jennifer Aniston (Horrible Bosses, Friends), and two others to play his kids. One his 18yr old never been kissed neighbor Kenny played by Will Poulter (The Maze Runner, School of comedy) and the other a teenage runaway named Casey played by Emma Roberts (American Horror Story, Valentine's Day). Together the foursome set out on their road trip to Mexico ready to play happy families to get through the boarders security with a nice big payload at the end This movie is wrong on so many levels, Jennifer Aniston really needs to hang her head in shame here, it was a disaster from beginning to end with some of the most absurd dialog I have ever heard in a comedy. Jennifer playing a stripper for a start was ridiculous, yes she is quite hot and knows how to move her body but her character was such a mess I swear the character must have had some form of mental illness from one scene to the next she was someone different. Jason Sudeikis I just don't think he is funny, he is pretty much one character in all his films, a womanizing no hoper, the way he treats his "family" is ridiculous. (Yes I'm well aware they aren't exactly a family but these strangers and the way they behave with one other is ludicrous). It seems the writers (Bob Fisher) and directors (Rawson Marshall Thurber who also directed Dodgeball) idea of funny is to be as rude and crass as possible whilst at the same time insult as many viewers as possible by being sexist, racist, homophobic and belittling. I hated this movie, I didn't laugh at its stupidity the only time I actually laughed was at the end during the credits for one moment where the cast gave a nice little surprise to Jennifer Aniston. I just don't know what else to say here. What I do know though is there are a lot of people out there who still find this kind of comedy amusing, I guess its some kind of escapism or perhaps there is more to it. I'm not sure. The feedback I received when I said I had watched this film was very 50/50 some loved it whilst others loathed. I guess if you want the rude, crude, loose women, gay d#ck sucking, ear poking, weed baby, cartoon villains type of film you will love this.
