    good movie surprisingly underrated. People if u could like a bad movie like Van Helsing and not appreciate a good movie like this then there is something wrong with u.

    When I saw the rating of 3.4 for JFV I was really surprised. I thought that it would at least have a rating of 6.7 or 7.0. I really hate to say it that people like crap movies like van helsing and alamo but think that this movie is bad. JFV was simply hilarious and it is a very neat and clean comedy with neat and clean humor mostly. Everyone must watch this movie with an open mind. This is for the first time black people have been treated so well on screen and I really loved it because the kind of role they are normally seen in are crackheads or drug dealers. In this movie the black family is shown as a very normal and civilized family and I really liked it. Good Job Cedric the entertainer.

    My Rating 10/10

    The Johnson Family Vacation Is A Mega Hit

    The Johnson Family Vacation is a mega hit. It is so refreshing that the BLACK Family is portrayed in a civilized manner. There are plenty of laughs throughout the movie without the use of profanity. I equate the movie to the Cosby Family, things happen and they get through it without lowering the image of the Black Family. What family doesn't have some dysfunctional events happen? Yes, that is what I am saying; we all can recount incidents in our family that can be related to the Johnson's. We have some big name stars in this film and we owe it to them, because they represent us, to fully support this movie. Please take your family and friends to see this movie this weekend. Let send them a message that we will stick together (Solidarity) in support of the work of our Brothers and Sisters.

    The Lost Sequel

    Spend a couple of hours with the Griswold, oops, I mean Johnson family as they take to the road for their family reunion.

    Cedric the Entertainer supplies the laughs, all seven of them. A sexy female traveler inciting marital tension, being given the wrong car at the dealership, unkempt rural relatives, we've seen it all before.

    But what might be the funniest thing of all about this predictable remake of National Lampoon's Vacation is that (Lil') Bow Wow has a higher billing than Vanessa Williams.

    But the fact remains that if you are looking for about 90 minutes of profanity free family entertainment which, by the way, is becoming harder and harder to find these days, then maybe The Johnson Family Vacation is just what the doctor ordered.

    Should have been better

    This movie should have been funnier. So many things made no sense like why Cedric insisted on talking with that ridiculous accent and why Steve Harvey refused to be funny. As a black man, I am so disappointed when a black movie just sucks.

    It was a good kid movie, though, because kids don't care.

    The Griswald family's first vacation is the standard for all vacation movies. However, it is not as kid friendly as Johnson Family Vacation. The hot tub scene with the 4 big girls was just begging for funny. Hitler could have gotten more laughs in that scene. Vanessa Williams could not possibly be any more beautiful, though. It was almost worth the price of admission to see her, but not quite.

    This movie is a waste of time.

    When I first heard about this movie I thought 'Great, this sounds good. Its gonna be a gigantic teen hit'. Boy was I wrong. This movie is literally trash. It hardly has a plot, the jokes are all old, and everything is stereotypical. The kind of family you find on sitcoms. A stressed dad that tried to keep everything in order but fails miserably, a 5-year-old girl who is a huge fan of Chuck.E.Cheese and wax crayons, a teenage rebel who refuses to wear anything that covers her thighs and stomach at the same time, a hip-hop-worshipping teenage son with a weird way of handling his dad and a mom that allows the father to take care of everything and watches her children disrespect their dad and just smiles. Its basically a family trip where they go to see their relatives, and they go there in a flash expensive car and fall from one problem to another. They do the whole fall-from-one-problem-to-another so many times that you actually get tired and uncomfortable towards the end. This movie is boring, and you've seen or heard every single joke here before. Don't even wait for the DVD. This movie is a disgrace to the film industry. And that is all I have to say.

    • Trivia
      Solange refers to her sister Beyoncé during a cell-phone conversation in her first scene of the movie. Her character's little sister in the movie is named "Destiny," an obvious reference to her sister's former group Destiny's Child.
    • Goofs
      When Stan shows up as they're leaving, when Dorothy opens her car door, a cameraman is visible reflected in the side mirror.
    • Quotes

      Nate Johnson: You know, son, the only reason I'm hard on you is, well, because one day you'll wear the pants in your own family, people will depend on you, and how can they do that if your pants are all hanging off your behind? I mean, have you thought about what you gonna do if this whole rap thing didn't work out?

      D.J. Johnson: Well, I was thinking about law school

      [Nate smiles in agreement]

      D.J. Johnson: or medical school

      [Nate nods in agreement]

      D.J. Johnson: but then Mom says she'll help me incorporate

      [Nate looks over at Dorothy, who's sleeping]

      D.J. Johnson: so I was thinking about coming out with my own line of hip-hop pajamas.

      Nate Johnson: [looks at him] Pajamas?

      D.J. Johnson: You know, how Puffy has SeanJohn and then Jigga has Rockawear?

      Nate Johnson: Oh, my days!

      D.J. Johnson: D.J.'s PJs, baggy always!

      [laughs to himself]

      D.J. Johnson: Bad!

      Nate Johnson: I told your mother not to stand by the microwave when she was pregnant with you!

      [D.J. looks puzzled]
