The Griswold family has many problems along their journey and they visit Ellen's cousin Catherine (Miriam Flynn), her useless husband Eddie (Randy Quaid) and their children. When they leave the place, they are forced to give a ride to the inconvenient Aunt Edna (Imogene Coca) and her hateful dog. Soon Clark learns that his planned journey has become a trip from hell.
"Vacation" is a hilarious road movie that makes anyone laughs. The clumsy Clark Griswold provokes very funny situations with his attitudes, supported by his beautiful wife. Unfortunately this type of naive comedy is forgotten by the studios on the present days. My vote is seven.
Title (Brazil): "Férias Frustradas" ("Frustrated Vacation")
Brilliant. Chevy Chase's facial and bodily expressions are still as funny as they were back in the 80's.
My boys and I were cracking up through most of the film. A wonderful feel good road trip movie.
Beverley D'Angelo and Chevy Chase are simply sublime together.
I am very fortunate to have watched this again and especially with my twin boys.
Thank you Chevy!
Luckily they do not forget any family member (named Kevin or otherwise), but they only are four people so ... there's that. They do occasionaly lose some luggage/baggage - literally. Apart from that, the movie does not care about being politically correct at all. There is a scene in the "ghetto" with quite a lot of stereotypes. Apparently they would not do this today ... well some have regrets that they shot that (production team if I got that right).
You also have jokes about incest and cheating - the girl in the Ferrari will probably stay in your dreams ... if you are either into the car and/or the female driving it. So much fun on the road, most of it feels even real. Situations that could happen one way or the other ... and almost exactly like that. Really good comedy ... only topped by the Christmas inspired sequel that came a few years later.
He, along with Homer Simpson, is where I took many of my parenting tips from, especially at christmas.
NLV is a great movie that never gets old and is easy to recommend :)

- WissenswertesAll the cast members had terrible experiences when it came to filming the scenes inside Walley World, where they rode all of the roller coasters and other rides. In the commentary, Chevy Chase mentions that many of the rides made him and the other cast members vomit, especially since they all had to ride them several times for each take. Dana Barron mentioned in the commentary that the coasters made her so sick, she had to take motion sickness pills and would pass out on nearby benches between takes. Finally, Anthony Michael Hall mentions that in the shots on the roller coaster where he looks scared, he wasn't acting, his fear in those shots was genuine.
- PatzerEllen's hairstyle changes quite dramatically towards the end of the film (at around the time that Aunt Edna is dropped off at Flagstaff), from wavy to a poodle perm. Result of last minute reshoots.

Clark Griswald: I think you're all fucked in the head. We're ten hours from the fuckin' fun park and you want to bail out! Well I'll tell you something, this is no longer a vacation. It's a quest. It's a quest for fun! I'm gonna have fun, and you're gonna have fun. We're all gonna have so much fuckin' fun we'll need plastic surgery to remove our goddamn smiles! You'll be whistling 'Zip-A-Dee Doo-Dah' out of your assholes! Hahaha. I gotta be crazy, I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose! Praise Marty Moose! Holy shit!
Rusty Griswold: [grabs Clark's shoulder] Dad, you want an aspirin or somethin'?
Clark Griswald: ...DON'T TOUCH!
- Crazy CreditsDuring the credits, you see snapshots of group photos of where and who the Griswalds met on the vacation. The last photo shows you how they got home, on a plane.
- Alternative VersionenWhen originally released in theaters, the song "I'm So Excited" by The Pointer Sisters was present, but quickly withdrawn, having June Pointer's "Little Boy Sweet" replace it; hence why it does not appear on the soundtrack. Mistakenly, the song is credited (as should be) but not featured in the film on VHS or DVD, just when shown on TV. "Summer Hearts" by Nicolette Larson was apart of the original ending to the film, and only remains on the soundtrack.
