Take From Dusk Till Dawn and National Lampoon’s Vacation; subtract Chevy Chase, John Candy, Quentin Tarantino and bloodthirsty vampires; add Jennifer Aniston as a stripper and Dodgeball director Marshall Rawson Thurber, and you’ve got We’re The Millers.


It’s the story of a small-time drug dealer (SNL’s Jason Sudeikis) who decides the least suspicious way to move a truckload of weed across the US-Mexican border is by having a “family” with him. Hence two misfit teens and a stripper. What could go wrong?

Sudeikis and Aniston are joined by The Office’s Ed Helms and Parks and Recreation’s Nick Offerman (fresh off of pissing everywhere in Fidlar’s new video). Catch the opening this Wednesday at Village East Cinema, along with some of the other flicks we’re Reel Psyched about this week.
