Review of We're the Millers (2013) by Will C — 02 Jan 2019
Another Jennifer Aniston rom-com? Yes, and with the same ingredients. We're the Millers is a comedy and, to say something nice about it, it contains its share of worthwhile moments and tiny pleasures.
Some of the jokes are funny. If one was to compile all the good snippets and scenes into a highlight reel, it might run about six minutes. Unfortunately, the movie as a whole has a running time of 110 minutes.
That means that, accounting for credits, there's close to 100 minutes of tedium to endure, which results in a mathematical ratio of 16:1 in favor of the drab, the monotonous, and the just plain boring.
I think of a number of better ways to spend $10. Sorry, but the sight of Jennifer Aniston in translucent underwear imitating Jennifer Beals from Flashdance (to the wrong music) just ain't worth it.
(Just re-watch Friends).
