Reviews for Vegas Vacation
It's not really awful - it's just dull.

It's a bad sign when National Lampoon wants its name out of the title.

...the Griswolds bring down the house.

I'll lay you 3-to-1 odds that by the end of this flick even fans will be thinking that this wasn't a trip worth taking.

There is nothing more memorable about Vegas Vacation than the flatness of the writing in Elisa Bell's script and the uninspired direction of first-timer Stephen Kessler.

The film's only life is provided by Randy Quaid, back as Ellen's redneck cousin.

To the legions who have returned as losers from the glitzy playgrounds of the Nevada desert can now be added the people responsible for Vegas Vacation.
05/20/03
The subplots involving D'Angelo and Newton and Ethan Embry -- the Griswolds' son, who can't stop winning -- have their charms.

Top CriticThis is not the sort of comedy that asks much of a viewer, and it's not as if you have to engage your brain.
01/01/00
Somewhere along the way, the filmmakers lost sight of what made the original Vacation funny. It wasn't the actual goal... but the journey.

There should be a self-help group where insecure people make themselves feel better by constantly repeating: "He's Chevy Chase and I'm not."
01/01/00
A high colonic for the brain.
