Check your brain at the door, because it's time once again for a dim-witted visit to Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) and his happy-go-lucky family, who hit the Vegas strip for this vacation. (The kids who originally played the Griswold children have been replaced.) The Griswold exploits in the casinos are good for a few embarrassed chuckles, especially when Mrs. Griswold (Beverly D'Angelo) gets onstage with Wayne Newton for a truly mind-altering rendition of Minnie Ripperton's ear-piercing 1970s hit "Loving You." And because he scored so many low-brow points as the lame-brained cousin in the original National Lampoon's Vacation, Randy Quaid is back to cause a lot of trouble, while Chevy Chase is reduced to uninspired slapstick and endless puns involving the word damn. In other words, Vegas Vacation is the kind of comedy that can convince you that civilization is doomed. --Jeff Shannon ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Not as good as its predecessors, yet funny and entertaining.
While National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation remains the funniest of the entire series, Vegas Vacation has a lot of laughs that is sure to please its audiences. This time, Clark, Ellen, Rusty and Audrey are off to Las Vegas, where Clark plans on renewing his wedding vows to Ellen. However, the inevitable temptation to gamble becomes too much for Clark, and he begins to squander all of his money, delving into his savings. Meanwhile, his wife is being courted by Wayne Newton, his son is posing as a married man from Uma, and his daughter becomes a club dancer. And what would a vacation movie be without good ol' cousin Eddie, played by the hilarious Randy Quaid? This time, he's living in a mobile home on a former H-bomb test site, and he offers his help to Clark after he loses all of his money. While it is clear that some of the laughs are missed from th previous films, this one does not fail to please, giving more laughs than you would think and keeping the entertainment alive.

5-0 out of 5 stars You Can Watch This Movie Over and Over...
Vegas Vacation is probably one of my favorite "Vacation's" there is. This movie takes you on a fun adventure to fabulous Las Vegas for a vacation for the Griswald's. I have never gotten bored with this movie and I can watch it over and over and over.

At first, Audrey and Russ are reluctant to going because "the people are soo fony", but soon they are having the time of their lives. Fuss gets a fake ID and wins about 3 cars. Audrey hangs out with her cousin Vicki (who is a dancer) and Audrey basically changes her whole wardrobe and style.

Ellen falls in love and gets seduced by Wayne Newton. And "Sparky" (Chevy Chase) well... let's just say he's having some trouble at the tables. The entire family have a visit with Ellen's cousins and a family trip to the Hoover Dam.

This is one of Chevy's best! You'll love it!

5-0 out of 5 stars ALWAYS FUNNY
I could watch this 100 times and never get bored of it. I have never seen any of the other Vacation movies but loved this one. It's hilarious from beginning to end. Anyone who is a fan of Chevy Chase will like this movie. It should have a 5 star rating overall.

1-0 out of 5 stars I wish I could dump barrels of fish guts on Papa Gorgio!
I hate people out of jealousy who hit a jackpot at a slot machine after only their first fews spins when yet they never even played slots before.

Papa Gorgio (Russ Griswold) is this movie wins at least 2 major jackpots at 2 different slot machines on the very first spin! (I mean crap man, now there's a guy that I REALLY hate out of jealousy!)

I am so jealous of those lucky [lady] and SOBs that do it on their very first few spins because I've played those damn machines every month for over a year and a half. I've done over 70,000 unsuccessful spins and have lost quite a bit of money over these many months at those damn machines.. I've still never hit a jackpot.

I really wish I could buy one of those damn slot machines from a US casino like say 'Wild Cherry' or the 'Red, White, and Blue' machine and smash it to pieces with my slegehammer the same way I smashed that 'Slots with Video Poker' VHS. That's how much I hate slot machines and those damn, lucky jackpot winners who do it on their first few spins!!
That jackpot that that occasional lucky male or female (...) wins on their VERY FIRST VISIT in that casino in under 100 spins just devistaes me!!! That jackpot should be mine!

Where the hell's MY jackpot?!?!?!?
I'm WAY OVERDUE for a jackpot!

4-0 out of 5 stars It's not the original, but it's still damn good
INTRODUCTION:
Vegas Vacation was the fourth film in the Vacation series of films. It had been eight years since the release of the most recent entry in the series, Christmas Vacation. Would the series still be able to impress people, or was it officially doomed? Read on for my review.

BASIC PLOT:
The storyline of the film goes something like this. Clark and Ellen Griswald (once again played by Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo) realize that their children aren't going to be children much longer, and that they should take another vacation to enjoy the remaining time they have together. Their destination? Las Vegas. Once there, Rusty gets a fake ID and wins some cars, Audrey takes up exotic dancing, and Ellen is befriended by Wayne Newton. And what would a Vacation movie be without cousin Eddie? (Randy Quaid reprises that role.) Clark, on the other hand, meets his rival - a blackjack dealer (played by Wallace Shawn), and quickly gambles away thousands of dollars. How will their vacation turn out?

FILM OPINIONS:
This film is not nearly as good as its predecessor, but it's a good film nonetheless. If you like the series, this is worth checking out, but it's not essential. If you're new to the Vacation series, start with the first film - it's the true masterpiece of the bunch.

DVD:
The DVD is severely lacking as far as extras go - this seems to be typical of the Vacation series movie DVDs. We get commentary and trailers, and that's about it. There's really not much other than these things, things that every DVD should have. Still, the actual film is good, and it makes up for this.

OVERALL:
Overall this film doesn't top its predecessor, but it's still damn funny. If you want to laugh, pick it up. You'll be glad you did. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Odd...interesting...hard to explain
Ok you've got 3 women. That's it. The flick alternates between each of them and the camera in a series of monologues that are like diary entries...sort of.
There's a Producer (beverly)whose entries are headed to a book publisher. A massage therapist (Portia) who believes she can steal energy from her Hollywood clients, whose entries are part of a book there is no publisher for. And a casting director whose entries are a combination of letters to her newborn blind son and letters to Holly Hunter (her son's godmother).
The thing is that there is a lot of movie references and it's more of an art movie than a movie with a plot. There is no interaction between the three or between them and anyone else that is seen.
However, a few times in the film you find that they are connected to each other in obscure ways. For instance, Portia sets out to seduce a man, who turns out to be the husband of the casting director. And there is a twisted connection of all three of them with a psychiatrist.
It's a flick that is interesting for the first 30 mins. At an hour, you notice the clock and realize there is about 45 minutes more of this that you will have to sit through. Then at an hour and 15, you find yourself reluctant to turn it off, just because you need closure with these women and with this bizarre sequence of events.
It's not terrible...the three women starring in this flick make that impossible. But there are just some things you never really need to see (like Portia on the toilet).
I say 3 stars, only because if you are in the mood for something like this flick, you might really enjoy it. But if you're not prepared or in the mood, it would be very easy to become bored or fall asleep. ... Read more

Edie and Pen are two women who've come to Reno to get divorced. Edie(Jennifer Tilly) already has a new fiancé lined up; Pen (Stockard Channing)can't quite get over the end of her nine-year marriage. After a brief drunkenquest that leaves them stranded at the edge of town with Harry (Scott Glenn), abitter cowboy whose wife just left him, the two women bond--but later that nightit turns out they have more in common than they knew. Edie & Pen is fullof quirky bit parts played by a wealth of character actors, but the grounded,well-crafted writing and warm performances keep things from getting too cute.Channing and Glenn have lovely chemistry, while Tilly gives charm and justenough weight to the ditzy Edie to make her relationship with Pen more than agimmick. A modest but genuinely sweet movie. --Bret Fetzer ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Interesting Pairing
Channing and Tilly...an appealing duet. Who would have thought. I just liked the movie.

5-0 out of 5 stars A MUST SEE FOR EVERY WOMAN!
THIS MOVIE IS A MUST FOR EVERY WOMAN (OR MAN) THAT HAS EVER BEEN INVOLVED IN A DIVORCE FOLLOWED WITH A NEW RELATIONSHIP. THE DIALOG IS FULL OF THE LITTLE "TRUISMS" THAT WILL TOUCH ANYONE WHO VIEWS THIS FILM. "FUNNY"? ABSOLUTELY!! THIS IS A COMEDY IN THE TRUEST SENSE. JENNIFER TILLY AND STOCKARD CHANNING ARE HILARIOUS. I RECOMMEND SEEING THIS FILM NO LESS THAN TWO OR THREE TIMES, AS EACH TIME YOU WILL PICK UP ON A NEW PIECE OF THE PUZZEL THAT TIES THESE CHARACTERS. HOW MANY LITTLE "NUGGETS" CAN YOU FIND!! P.S. BETTER TO WATCH ALONE OR WITH A GIRLFRIEND. GUYS CAN HAVE A TOUGH TIME WITH THIS MOVIE! ... Read more

Description

Alan Arkin and Peter Falk star in John Cassavetes’ comedic homage to Double Indemnity. When lovely Beverly D'Angelo convinces insurance man Arkin (who is desperate to send his triplet sons to Yale) to kill off her husband, things get progressively stranger ... and funnier. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Falk and Arkin Can't Miss. Be Prepared to Laugh
The In-Laws is the standard, but there are scenes in this one that I still can't get through without choking laughter 15 years later. This movie goes beyond off the wall in some spots, and the cast gets it done. It's all about Arkin, Falk, and of course, Richard Libertini in an "In-Laws" like wacky role. No cerebral stuff going on here, but you'll laugh throughout. Find this movie somehow. You won't be sorry

1-0 out of 5 stars Cassavetes fans, don't bother.
This film, as far as I know, is the "real" last film Cassavetes directed -- not LOVE STREAMS, alas, though that makes a much more fitting final movie. Cassavetes was probably trying to generate funding for a film biography of Django Rheinhardt he was preparing to make (which, of course, he never did get to); either that or he was doing a favor for his friend Peter Falk. In any case, the film has NO bearing on Cassavetes other work. You'll see no sign of his touch at any point, and little sign that he particularly cared about the project. It plays through as a mediocre commercial comedy, poorly written and not very funny. It's professionally done -- but that's about it. Don't even be curious.

5-0 out of 5 stars hilarious...on the order of "The In-Laws". Falk/Arkin great!
A follow up (but not a sequel) to the comedy "The In-Laws", Peter Falk and Alan Arkin pick up where they left off. A lighthearted comedy about an insurance salesman (Arkin) who unwittingly gets caught up in a scheme by Falk and his wife, played by Beverly D'Angelo. Many twists and turns in this classic! You will long remember the highway scene, the nose reconstruction, the drink, the kidnapping, the drugstore, the train, the homeless man, the adjuster. 4.9 stars ... Read more
