Description
When Cousin Eddie joined Clark Griswold and his family for National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, the movie quickly becaume a holiday institution. An institution, of course, is where many think Cousin Eddie should reside. Randy Quaid again plays crude but lovable Eddie and Miriam Flynn returns as his wife in another comic skid on the Vacation banana peel. In a way, Christmas has always been a test of survival for Eddie and his brood. And that's truer than ever when they receive an expenses-paid holiday tour of the South Pacific and end up shipwrecked on a remote island. Fred Willard, Ed Asner, Eric Idle in a zany cameo and more join in this season of comfort and joy. Which means little comfort for Eddie. And lots of joy for Vacation fans.

Unenthralled.......2007-01-19

I got this for my father for Christmas. What a waste of money it was. I was expecting some funny, witty jokes- just like the first movie. It was nothing like that at all. It was not funny, there was no storyline, we watched about 30 minutes of it, and just gave up watching it because it was so bad. The acting was also horrible. I would not reccommend this to anyone.

Why oh why..........2005-09-29

You know. I really enjoyed the first Christmas Vacation. When I saw CV2 on the shelf I was excited to see the saga continue. The movie starts out great....until the beginning credits end. While they did bring back an old Audrey they forget the core family...Chevy Chase and Beverly DeAngelo. Guess they knew to stay away from such a bad movie and so should you. Trust me. This movie is not enjoyable whatsoever.

I would have given it no stars but they don't allow it.

mildly amusing.......2005-08-09

This movie, while most certainly not the best comedy made by National Lampoon was funny none the less amusing in it's own strange way. Definitely not a suitable sequel to the original Christmas Vacation though.

C'mon!!!!This isn,t that bad!!!!.......2004-12-27

YOU PEOPLE!!!!I heard you bitch and moan like all day about this movie!When you moan about one of funniest movies ever you,re insulting the director.AND YOU HURT MY FEELINGS TOO. Love goes out to you, Nick Marck.

Ooops.......2004-12-27

Okey. its enjoyable for big fans of the old vacation movies. becouse you see the original "audrey griswold" back after 20 years. she looks kind of weird though. she's a grown woman now, but still look like one of their kids. and ofcourse Eddie and his wife along with "snod" the dog. so, even though the movie isnt very fun at all. you can still find some enjoyment watching this. i mean, after all, it isnt just a remake with completely diffrent actors and moviemakers. it's a fifth installment in the "Vacation" series.
I really wanted, and really tried to like this movie. but i don't think i laughed once. it starts of bad from the begining, in one of the early scenes, when they've landed in this hot vacation place, they meet all these cute loveable asian girls, and i figure "okey, atleast that's a reason for liking the movie". but then this bitter angry asian girl shows up, and she becomes they're guide. great.. oh, and comedian Fred Willard shows up for a few short scenes. Oh, Eric Idle too!
cousin eddie was my favorite character in the vacation series, so i was really looking forward to this movie and thought i'd like it. but it just isnt funny! on the DVD extras, you see trailers of the old vacation movies.. and i mean.. just compare. this comes out as a very poor and empty movie with old lame jokes and only about 1:20h long.
if i wasn't a fan of the "vacation" series, and this was just like a regular movie i saw, without seeing the prevoius ones. i would just think this was the lamest thing ever.
i don't know.. maybe kids will like it. i'm still hoping for more Vacation movies, even though the movie makers didnt seem to care much about this one. the previous "Vegas Vacation" (1997) wasn't the funniest either. Well, still, i enjoy this movie becouse it's another installment with alote of familiar faces and a great vacation spot. i mean, who wouldnt like to be at that hot place in the middle of the winter. i like it, but it's not fun.
