National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

"Solid family fare with plenty of yocks."

"The new film does little more than reintroduce these familiar characters and let them get on one another's nerves in earnest."

"Sequence after sequence seems to contain all the necessary material, to be well on the way toward a payoff, and then it somehow doesn't work."

"As always the visual gags are more prevalent then the verbal ones, and are lit up in neon so you can't miss them."
