We're the Millers

Fun and clever little R-rated comedy about a group of four mismatched pot smugglers posing as a clean-cut middle-class family… with, of course, hilarious consequences. Poulter hits the spot with his take on the Lopes "Waterfalls" rap, and Helms is terrific as cannabis-kingpin Brad Gurdlinger. Even though the entire cast does a good job, the four core characters seem strangely underdeveloped, leaving the viewer somewhat apathetic towards their conflict. Ironically, no characters are seen consuming marijuana. Poulter deservedly received plenty of recognition for his part, including breakthrough/newcomer nominations from Empire UK and MTV Movie Awards.
