One of those movies that was the product of the success of "Animal House" but unlike that movie (or "Caddyshack"), it simply becomes more and more overblown as it progresses, with the inevitable impossible "big finishes" in the final sequences.

Some of the early gags are OK - shopping for the station wagon, ending up in the wrong neighborhood in St. Louis, are good and play to Chevy Chase's strengths. The silly scenes with the aunt who dies en route, Christy Brinkely, the taking of hostages at "Wally World" all add up to something outside of normal human family experience - and as such are just not very funny despite the noise and spectacle.

It's time to go to Wally world! Pack up your bags and get the Family in the car for griswold vacation! It's such a funny movie about the Griswold family going to Wallyworld. It has alot of funny moments. The only down side is that they ruin the movie with Nudity scene. Didn't like it. It's better to watch it on tv then on video. Again it's funny and worth watching. It also had a great cast. I give it four stars.

Good movie, but I don't know why it's called "one of the funniest movies of all time". Sure it's funny, but not fall out of your chair funny. I've seen better. Anyway, the plot is simple. An american family are on a road trip to Wally World (any similarity to disney world?), and face a lot of catastrophes on the way there.
I had a number of favorite parts in this film, like *SPOILER* when the great aunt died in the car and how Clark and his family handled it. Yeah, putting her on that car roof in the middle of a rain storm wasn't the brightest idea. This is definately a classic, and pretty much the best out of all the VACATION films. I just don't think it was "one of the funniest movies ever made" as many people say, because as I stated before, I've seen better.

this is my favorite one
