TheFilmCritics @TheFilmCritics Aug 30, 2026 Las Vegas proves once again to be the perfect playground for Clark Griswold’s spectacularly poor judgment in Vegas Vacation. Chevy Chase remains effortlessly suited to the role, while Randy Quaid’s Cousin Eddie supplies some of the film’s liveliest comic sparks. The gaudy excess of Sin City also gives the familiar Griswold formula a suitably ridiculous backdrop, producing several genuinely funny sequences and memorable gags. Yet the film is less cohesive than its predecessors, often resembling a string of sketches rather than a fully formed comedy, with some jokes pushed well beyond their natural lifespan. Its broad humor can also overwhelm the characters and expose the limits of the formula. Even so, the easygoing silliness and steady supply of Griswold mayhem make this an entertaining, pleasantly undemanding vacation that doesn’t quite hit the jackpot, but certainly avoids going bust.

Yes the sub plots are stupid and the kids look nothing like the parents this time, but come on the casino of chance is one of my favorite comedic movie scenes from the 90s. I also voted up because we watched Romy and Michelle’s high school reunion and maters gave that 75%!!!

It does go through peaks and troughs, there are some uninteresting moments but by and large what I was viewing was passable entertainment. The Vegas setting and shenanigans keep it watchable, the dam scenes are good too. Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo are back yet again, as is Randy Quaid. I still don't really rate the latter's character all that much, pretty annoying in fact (and not in the intended sense); Chase's Clark is supposed to be the idiot here, so always feels odd to have an even bigger idiot. The more sentimental conclusion doesn't totally land, at least in terms of how it's portrayed. It felt watching that it was attempting to be super sensitive about family and love for each other, but these aren't the sort of movies where that fits. The Griswolds are dysfunctional, not lovable or relatable. Still, this is better than I thought it was going to be; especially with the disappearance of the National Lampoon name and the eight-year gap from the previous entry. See more Read all reviews
