Small-time pot dealer David learns the hard way that no good deed goes unpunished; trying to help some teens, he is jumped by thugs and loses his cash and stash. Now, David's in big debt to his supplier and to wipe the slate clean, he must go to Mexico to pick up the guy's latest shipment. To accomplish his mission, Dave devises a foolproof plan: He packs a fake family into a huge RV and heads south of the border for a wild weekend that is sure to end with a bang.

Critics Consensus

We're the Millers squanders its potential with an uneven, lazily assembled story..

Wesley Morris

Grantland

The movie's lingering close-ups on yearning faces and heart-to-heart conversations force the fake Millers into real familial longing that's more bogus than the family itself.

Us Weekly

Naturally, there are roadblocks galore -- but the breezy film stays one mile ahead in terms of plot and punch lines

Irish Times

The central conceit is well established, the comedy is often impressively sour and the four leads complement one another beautifully.

Along the way, as the film begins to unravel, all the possible variants and ramifications that the plot could have pursued parade through the mind. The only alternative they should not have chosen is the one they go for... [Full review in Spanish]

There are just enough laughs to be had to allow this sketchy, smutty affair the benefit of the doubt.

Gone With The Twins

The foul-mouthed dialogue and bawdy predicaments inserted at nearly uninterrupted intervals leave the journey with rarely a dull moment.

This movie is made by the one liners and the fantastic acting. Foolishly fun plot. Great acting. Little to no redeeming qualities. But dang fun.

Entertaining, but dumb. Through the power of performance, some weak writing and unbelievably silly plots turn out funny regardless. Some sexy scenes with an A-list star like Aniston don't hurt and in the end, I had a good time. Worth a watch or two over the years, but nothing to shout about. Unless you get bitten by a spider.

indeed raunchy, and it has its funny moments. But when the bits get drawn out, the family is not so funny anymore.

An entertaining comedy with utterly ridiculous plot lines. It is funny, silly and absurd all at the same time. Personally, I like We're the Millers, but it certainly isn't a very good film. For its entertainment value, I do recommend. 39/100

This begins with the usual disclaimer: “If you like this kind of movie,” of course. It’s unrealistic, there’s no attention to detail, and so forth—and you need to stop asking questions such as “Would that happen in real life?” So well, this movie proves you can’t go wrong with Jason Sudeikis in a comedy. It’s funny in parts, fun most of the time, and thoroughly watchable throughout—with four entirely different characters somehow coming together in a non-contrived manner!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Very funny. If you need some comic relief this is a good one.
