Summary: A Christmas Comedy Classic!
Review: This may be blasphemous, but I think this film ranks right up underneath Monty Python's Holy Grail. It's just not officially Christmas unless I've watched this film. I'm NOT a big Chevy Chase fan, but he's perfect in this film. It's impossible to select my favorite scene - the Squirrel? The unfortunate cat? The sled? The turkey? The pool fantasy? "Bit of a nip in the air?" I can't decide. But for me, anyway, my favorite line is easy to pick. Beverly DeAngelo: "I don't know what to say, dear, except that it's Christmas -- and we're ALL miserable!" (You have to be there, to understand.) Oh! And be sure to take a close look at what Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid are drinking out of when they drink the eggnog -- a little reward for fans of National Lampoon's Family Vacation.
Get this movie, and enjoy!

Summary: Classic
Review: Just like every National Lampoon movie, this one does not dissapoint. As a matter of fact, I consider this movie to be a classic no doubt about this. this is something that you can enjoy with your family and your loved ones. Chevey Chase was hilarious. Most of the old people there seem to annoy me. Like the guy that burnt down the tree. And that crazy guy from Independence Day that flew the plane into the alien thing was on it too. I forget his name on the movie but he was funny too. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The best part was when Chevey was going crazy because he didnt get his bonus and he started to flip out on everybody. Then the guy kidnapped the boss and brought him to the house. It was pretty funny. The old lady saying the national anthem during grace was also funny. The ending was straight up hilarious. I can't tell you what happened because you need to get it for yourself to see. This is one of those movies that you must add to your collection. A definite "MUST GET"~!!

Summary: Good but Wasn't Rusty older than Audrey in the first movie?
Review: Funny and a lot more family friendly than the first Vacation movie which had an R rating. Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that Rusty seemed to have gotten younger and Audrey older? In the first movie wasn't Rusty who was played by Anthony Michael Hall actually older than Audrey who was played by Dana Barron? Minor thing but it's just something I've always wondered about since first seeing National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation.

Summary: Dare I say the best National Lampoon movie of all?
Review: Clark Griswold and his family are going to have a different sort of vacation in "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation." For one vacation in their life, they are not going to do any traveling. Nope, the Griswolds are just going to have a good old time (they wish!) with their family, as they all come to the Griswolds' house to celebrate the best holiday of the year. I'm a big fan of the National Lampoon series and especially of comedy movies. I have to say, Chevy Chase is one of the best comedy actors of all time, and he does what is perhaps his best performance ever (in my opinion), in "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation." Like you would expect it to be, "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation" is brimming over with nonstop laughs. Whether the Griswolds and their hectic family members are being terrified by a squirrel, or whether Clark Griswold is up to his usual clumsy antics, this movie is hilarious to say the least. If you're a fan of comedy movies AT ALL, and especially if you like Christmas movies, I 101% recommend purchasing "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation." Without a doubt, it is one of the best Christmas comedies ever made. It's a classic that you and your family will want to watch every Christmas for years, decades, and generations to come.

Summary: Pale, Mindless, and Quite Pathetic Sequel.
Review: What you think is going to be a funny movie...really isn't. This is what exactly happens when watching Christmas Vacation. The only good thing can be summed up in 2 words: Chevy Chase. Chevy keeps the movie from being a total failure, with his funny combination of being a father, and a stupid idiot. Other then that though, the movie is unfunny and very gross at many points...the gross parts basically feature Randy Quaid...who is annoying as ever.

Summary: A Christmas Tradition
Review: Since about 1995, christmas at our house jsut wouldnt be the same if we didn't watch "christmas vacation" and "christmas story" about 80 times between the dvd and when its on tv. This movie is perfect. I can't think of a single instance in the film where something could be changed. Teh best of the vacation movies and one of my all time favorite films, Christmas Vacation shows every family that no matter how bad christmas is at your house it could always be worse. If you like Chevy Chase, in his good days, or any of the other vacation movies then buy this now, don't rent, don't think jsut buy. Even if its jsut for the sleddign scene this movie is worth 14 bux. Video quality o nthe dsic is clear and clean, but not mindblowing, it doesn't need to be. the sound is good, voices are clear, music doesn't drown anyone out. ONce again nothing spectacular but it doesnt need to be. Extras are slim pickings, but there wouldnt be much to put on here anyways. Even tho thsi movie will be on tv 3468 times between November 1st and December 25th. It is still worth owning as it can be watched year round. You won't fee lstoopid watching it at other times in the year. Christmas in July, anyone?

Summary: My favorite Xmas movie -- deserves a better DVD
Review: One of Chevy's best -- and my personal favorite of the Vacation series. Clark Griswold is at his most well-intentioned but dim-witted best in this one. This movie has lots of strong gags throughout. Just when you think the story is about to lose steam, Randy Quaid shows up -- and the comedy goes to a whole new level. (My favorite scene is still the "sled" ride into traffic). Top notch supporting work from Beverly D'Angelo, and especially William Hickey and Mae Questel (as the great-grandparents). This DVD was made back in the days when "extras" meant trailers, and maybe some production notes. This is also a full-screen prsentation which is bad news for those of us who care about such things. Hopefully a "Special Edition" of this Christmas classic will be released with commentary from the stars, a widescreen picture and any out-takes that might possibly exist.
