Pros: Funny Cons: Could be too silly for some people
Over the years, I have seen all of the National Lampoon Vacation movies featuring the Griswold family and their disastrous vacations. I have liked some of them more than others. I first saw National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation in ...

Pros: acting, story, comedy Cons: some parts dated, predictable
When it comes to the holiday season, Im one of those people who dont like to take it too seriously. It seems that when I want to achieve the perfect Christmas life becomes more stressful. Instead, I kick back and laugh. ...

Pros: Chevy Chase is Awesome, extremely funny, geared to interest the whole family Cons: none

Pros: Wonderful cast and script, hilarious classic moments Cons: Gets a little carried away with itself, gets a bit out of hand at times
Despite the fact that a great number of comedies set at Christmas time get produced, remarkably few are actually funny. The reason for this is debatable, but I think what it boils down to is that people either romanticize the holiday out of all ...

Pros: There's plenty of funny scenes, and Chase is good, as usual. Cons: None of the scenes with the neighbors are funny.
I have no idea why National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation has the word "vacation" in it. The family whom the film focuses on, the Griswolds, never take a vacation from their Chicago suburb in this film. They just stay right there, and occasionally ...

Pros: Hilarious! Cons: None
Every year, my family (my Mom and Dad, my brother and I), went to see a special ‘Christmas Movie.’ It was a tradition that my mother invented when we were young. I think the first one we ever saw together was A Christmas Story, (1983) and it was ...

Pros: Great cast, hilarious Cons: None
There have been several National Lampoon's Vacation movies, but this one is by far the funniest. The only other Christmas movie to hold a candle to it is A Christmas Story.
Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo stars as the Griswolds, and Clark...

Pros: Hilarious and easy to relate to! Cons: It ends!
Nothing says Christmas like going to Church, opening presents, eating warm decorated cookies, and slipping the video into the VCR. That video would be National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, and it should be in every home, because it is the PRIME...

Pros: So funny you will cry. Cons: Clark is a womanizer.
If I was ever forced to inhabit a deserted island that came equipped with a VCR, this is the one movie I'd choose to take with me. Of all the National Lampoon Vacation Movies, this one is my favorite, just edging out the original. We all walk around...

Pros: Extremely funny. In my opinion, it is the best National Lampoon Vacation movie. Cons: Not for young children. Contains adult humor, and some strong language.
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is one of my all time favorite movies. The film was released in 1989, and stars Chevy Chase as Clark Griswold, and Beverly D'Angelo as his wife, Ellen. National Lampoon made a series of vacation movies, and ...

Pros: A Christmas classic! Cousin Eddie steals the show. Cons: None, if you keep in mind that this is mindless comedic entertainment.
My Christmas holiday would not be complete without two special movies: "A Christmas Story" and "Christmas Vacation." Granted, "Christmas Vacation" is not quite on a par with Ralphie's quest for a Red Ryder BB gun, but it comes DARNED close. As do all ...
