PRO REVIEWS ----------------------------------------
"What really drives the movie is its own search for something to make fun of, and for a comic style that can feel credibly naughty while remaining ultimately safe and affirmative" (A. O. Scott: The New York Times)
----------------------------------------
"Director Rawson Marshall Thurber adequately manages the mechanics demanded here but adds no finesse or grace notes" (Todd McCarthy: The Hollywood Reporter)
----------------------------------------
"'We’re the Millers' falls back on the sort of lazy but desperate, sexually fixated non sequiturs that have become de rigueur in studio comedies, jabbing repeatedly at the human groin in hopes of eventually hitting something funny" (Justin Chang: Variety)
----------------------------------------
"'We're the Millers' is a twisted road trip worth avoiding. Not only is it not funny, it's offensive (...) Rating: *1/2 (out of four)" (Claudia Puig: USA Today)
----------------------------------------
"Drug-mule road trip not as funny as it sounds (...) Rating: *1/2 (out of four)" (Michael Phillips: Chicago Tribune)
----------------------------------------
"The movie (...), thinks it’s subverting the conventions of the sitcom with a revolutionary new idea, which is: Do everything exactly the way a sitcom would, plus lots of swearing and dirty jokes (...) Rating: * (out of four)" (Kyle Smith: New York Post)
----------------------------------------
"Get past the comedy and there's something almost weird at the movie's core - a deep cynicism about family and a longing for family, both at the same time" (Mick LaSalle: San Francisco Chronicle)
