FlixChatter Review: We’re The Millers

When I first saw this trailer, I've got to admit that I found the premise to be quite hilarious. Former SNL cast member Jason Sudekis plays a small-time pot dealer David, who has to assemble a fake family for a mission to transport a 'smidgen' of pot from Mexico. He's convinced that under the disguise …
