I found “We’re The Millers” to be a much better movie than it was rated to be. I very much enjoyed it.

I had forgotten that I had made a post concerning “We’re The Millers”.

Please accept my apology for making a second such post above.

I love it, too. I hated Duke, though. All through the cartoon series. Not just the movie. According to [this cite](http://spinoff.comicbookresources.com/2013/04/10/movie-legends-revealed-how-did-optimus-prime-save-dukes-life/), among others, Duke was going to be killed off until the saw how negative the feedback was when Optimus Prime was killed in the Transformer movie.

I would have liked to have seen some more development of Jinx, Tunnel Rat, and Chuckles.Especially Chuckles.

Congo (21%) - An entertaining action movie, as long as you don’t think about it too much. Ernie Hudson and Tim Curry have fun with their roles.

Kick-Ass 2 (29%) - Almost as good as the first one, I thought.

City Heat (23%) - I thought it was a decent buddy cop movie.
