Review Detail

 

Just when families are planning their vacations to their relatives for the holidays is the perfect time to watch Christmas Vacation.  A family comedy, again starring Chevy Chase, as Clark Griswald, and Beverly D'Angelo, as Ellen Griswald, is a go-to movie for the holidays and each time I see it with my family we howl with laughter.  Once again, Clark wants to give his family a wonderful Christmas and tries his hardest to make it perfect, however, it turns out that there is one mishap after another that are really relatable to all, as we have all had similar situations during our family holiday gatherings.  What makes his perfect holiday worse is the unexpected visit by his cousin Eddie and his family who set up residence in his yard and the much needed Christmas bonus, that Clark expected, did not materialize.  With hilarious, but exaggerated, mishaps, the laughs keep coming and this is one holiday movie that the entire family will enjoy.
