Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Hollywoodshack In some way I suspect Warner Brothers made this movie so it would flop. Then they could make the fans go away that nag them about why they're not going to make another Vacation sequel with all the Griswalds and the National Lampoon guy Matty Simmons producing it. It had its funny moments. I liked the scene where Eddie tried to catch a big fish and reel it in. It was so large that it pulled the boat backwards toward their deserted island. Also, it got me laughing when Eddie's son and his uncle (Ed Asner) peek at their Hawaian host undressing both at the same time. If anything that rated one to zero it was the extra feature about the making of the film that focused on training the animals, Eddie's favorite types of beer and how many different ways the cast members could say "Merry Christmas." Audrey said "Merry Christmas, I wanna kill myself!" Yuck. Avoid the extra feature because it told what was fake in the movie besides what already looked cheap and fake.

peterbp Note, I only saw approximately the last half of this movie, so feel free to take my review with whatever grain of salt you deem appropriate, that being said, seeing what I saw was more than enough to make me quite convinced that a one-star rating for this is enough.In short, it's a dismal-plot slaughter of the wonderful precursor (NL Christmas Vacation) with Chevy Chase, only it doesn't have Chevy Chase in it, and it takes place in a generic tropical island, essentially with no connection to Christmas at all.Ol' Chevy probably didn't want in because the plot is that devoid of actual fun, instead they got the screwy Cousin Eddie, who, again, was great in the original, but in this he is just over the top, and an extremely poor basis for any movie considering the plot and acting. The attempts at humor are generic to a degree where even contemporary television comedy trumps it, and considering that this is supposed to be comedy, I doubt I need to say more.This is not to be seen for its qualities, for it has none, but for it's failings and again, how Hollywood is spilling it's life's blood of the past in the pursuit of a quick buck.I think I'll watch the original before the upcoming Christmas season just to try to regain my childhood innocence, from a lost time when motion pictures were more than just high-budget, but mindless, garbage.

superjip2000 Who gave these people money to make a movie? There was nothing funny about it. The fact that the farting dog was the funniest thing about this piece of sickness says it all. First of all, it has nothing to do with Christmas, it just took the name and counted on all those people who liked the Chevy Chase original. They took Randy 'I have no talent, I m just a fat and sweaty pig' Quaid (the only wrong thing about part 1) and made a 'movie' about him...There are only morons in his family, but not the 'aren't they cute' kinda moronic, but the 'don t touch me' kinda moronic. Watching this pile of dirt helps you hope that everyone who takes part in it DIES! They didn't even bother to get the effects in order...when they re on the boat, the only thing that moves is the fake background...when pigface Quaid is in the water you can tell by the lighting that it's in a studio. This movie was sexist (uncle Nick), racist (uncle Nick) and should never have been made..never...throwing the money into a volcano would have had so much more use.Well I hope I reached some of you...Nobody warned me and now I m scarred for life Merry F*cking Christmas

dawnmarieak TRULY HIDEOUS!!!!! I can watch a bad movie but this was so bad I had to fast forward through most of it!!!!!! Don't waste your time! The acting (mostly Randy Quaid) was terrible. The plot was ridiculous. The slapstick humor was way too out there. I feel bad for these actors and the fact that the original Audrey came back is really sad for her. If you loved the original (which I do) do not waste your time on this you will be so disappointed. The locations and blue screens are beyond unbelievable. In this day they should look real even with a tiny budget. The killer is being stranded on an island. Can you say Gilligans Island? Come on I am just so disgusted with this movie it is truly the worst movie I have ever viewed in my 40 years!
