It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Brilliant, funny and eventful. Some real laugh out loud moments even if you can see what's coming. The cast also work great together in particular the Rusty's kids. Great watch and better than the original in my opinion.

I'm kind of late to review this movie since I watched it over a year ago and this is the first movie I'm reviewing here on IMDb, but I'll take a stab at it anyway. I said I watched this movie a year ago, well, I should've said that I've seen the first half hour before I turned it off shortly afterwards. I'm not very strict and pretty easy on movies most of the time, but this movie was just bad. It's a mean-spirited, unfunny movie with no heart and it's a disgrace to the original Vacation movies with Chevy Chase. I'm saying this as a guy who loved Christmas Vacation and hated this movie. Not a single moment up to the half hour mark where I turned it off made chuckle or laugh even a little bit. I would honestly give this a 0/10 if I could and this has got to be the worst movie of the year in 2015 and probably the worst movie I've ever had the displeasure to watch. Follow my advice, you'll thank me later and be grateful that you didn't see this piece of s*** movie.

There were some good laughs, and although at points it was a little ridiculous, that ridiculousness managed to somewhat lend itself to the laughs.Another nice aspect of this movie is that, it kind of tried to steer away to some extent, from the predictability of these type of movies. Sure, a large part of it was very predictable, but, it tried with others, and I appreciated that.Overall, Vacation was pretty much what I always expected it to be, and it met those expectations quite well. Usually these road trip type comedy flicks, filled with a bunch of unnecessary spectacle end up feeling way too long, even with their usual 1 hr 30 min running time, but this film filled up that time with some palatable content for the most part. 5.7/10.P.S. Chris Hemsworth continues to deliver terrible, terrible American accents, and I have a feeling this film was just a disposable/replaceable playground to further practice his accent without consequence.

Ed Helms, Christina Applegate, Chris Hemsworth and Leslie Mann star in this 2015 comedy sequel/reboot of the 1983 classic. This focuses on Rusty Griswold (Helms) who is now an adult with his own family. He decides to follow in his father's footsteps when he takes his wife, Debbie (Applegate) and their 2 sons on a cross-country drive to theme park, Wally World where mishaps and such occur. This isn't that bad, I guess they tried to do their own thing while still pay tribute to the original and Helms and Applegate are good in it. Mann (The Cable Guy) plays Rusty's sis, Audrey, Hemsworth (Thor) plays her husband, Stone and Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo also make brief appearances as Clark and Ellen. Give this a try at least once.
