WE'RE THE MILLERS: that's absolutely nothing to brag about

REALLY?!
Jason Sudekis quit Saturday Night Live for a career making garbage like WE'RE THE MILLERS?
This film is so godawfully unfunny it makes SNL look like an episode of Frasier or Friends or Seinfeld or ..... well, you know, one of those genuinely laugh-out-loud funny tv comedies.
The red flags were clearly visible long before Sudekis stepped before the cameras for the first time.
Even if he hadn't read the script he would have known he would be co-starring alongside Jennifer
Aniston, and who among us is old enough to recall the last time she starred in a film that left you feeling like you'd got your money's worth?
All that pre-release hullabaloo about Aniston playing a stripper who actually strips down, says dirty words, and gives her pretend son a lap dance was just so much pr baloney. Sure she strips down to

lacy underwear which reveals precisely nothing (and looks especially un-alluring in the process), but she's no longer the adorable young Rachel Green of 'Friends' fame. She's kept herself fit but she can't disguise that weird heads grows larger thing that tends to happen to people when they reach middle-age, and a definite whiff of desperation clings to her performance.
Sudekis is adequate at best but lacks the comedy chops to wring anything memorable or truly amusing out of a lame script which makes barely a token effort at creating anything resembling a coherent storyline.
As I write this WE'RE THE MILLERS has just passed the $100 million dollar mark at the US box office. This sorry state of affairs suggests one of two things - either US audiences are so starved of quality comedy entertainment that they'll grab at anything that's put in front of them, or - sadly what's more likely - Hollywood has finally attained its ultimate goal - achieved thru years of churning out increasingly bland Aniston rom-coms - of so lowering audience expectations that they no longer have any memory left of what a really, genuinely good and funny comedy actually looks like.
