"Oh, Eddie... If I woke up tomorrow with my head sewn to the carpet, I wouldn't be more surprised than I am now."....bahahahaha could very well be the funniest Christmas movie ever made... A ton of one liners and quotes... Chevy Chase at his best when he stomps a mudhole in the xmas display and walks it dry

Watched this just the other day.

Still one of my favorite christmas movies. This, and trapped in paradise.

Merry Christmas. Shitter was full.

Chevy Chase MAKES this movie. I'm not a fan of physical comedy anymore but his face expressions are the best. This kind of comedic acting doesn't exist anymore. Even Will Ferrell grew out of it.

As funny and Christmassy as finding a bug in the Yule log you forget to flush.

This objectively unfunny slapstick bears the message that money may not be everything, but it is pretty much everything.

What a stupid movie. Very disappointed.

The previous vacation movies worked because of the Griswalds funny travelling adventures. This one involves no adventures, only staying at home and just doesn’t work. Nothing in this made me laugh & totally predictable, unlike the last two. I barely remembered this from the 80’s and watching it now just proves why I forgot. Just watch the first two movies and give this one a miss. A total cash in, both for Xmas and the first two classics. Totally forgettable. They should have made a proper third one about a holiday in Asia rather than this Xmas rubbish. No wonder they never followed this one up!

My family watches this movie every year and it never fails to get everyone laughing and even puts our family scrooge (me) in the right frame of mind.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that this is the equal of "National Lampoon's Vacation" but it comes close. There are a lot of funny gags here but the last 30 minutes really pay off mostly because of the wonderful performance of Randy Quaid as Cousin Eddie. Chevy Chase may be the lead but he finishes second whenever he's paired with Quaid. Eddie is totally lovable but disturbingly inappropriate at the same time. The supporting cast is fantastic especially the elderly relatives that visit on Christmas Day.

As silly as this sounds "Christmas Vacation" is easily my favorite holiday movie. It's got a sack full of laughs and a big heart which is what everyone needs to get through the season.

John Hughes has an insane amount of holiday bangers

Has to be the best Christmas movie made,with great performances by Chevy Chase, Beverly D'Angelo,Randy Quaid, Juliette lewis and a very young Johnny Galecki from The Big Bang theory,try to watch every Christmas,end up laughing so hard,worth watching more than once...

Just when you think it can't get any funnier...enter Aunt Bethany (voice of Betty Boop/Olive Oyl) to say "grace". This movie is so good that my kids are now in their 20's and they still come home on Christmas Eve just to watch this with us.

Randy Quaid! The only reason I may watch this again, though written by John Hughes. I like it, I swear. The poor kids! This is the first one with Chevy Chase who I think refused to be in a sequel and Quaid got the male lead role.

>"Merry Christmas. Shitter was full."

Wow, this movie is full of memorable and classic quotes. I wish I had watched this as a kid because it would've been my favorite christmas movie growing up for sure. It is silly, but in a good way, and I can totally see why everyone loves this.

Without a doubt, the funniest family Christmas film of all time, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation is a modern classic. When Clark Giswold decides to have a traditional family Christmas with his parents and in-laws hilarity ensues. Writer John Hughes brilliantly captures the American family, and creates fun, authentic characters that are relatable. And it features an all-star cast that includes Chevy Chase, Beverly D'Angelo, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Randy Quaid; all of whom give great performances. A wonderful film that’s sure to brighten up the holidays, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation delivers a ton of laughs and a positive message about the magic of the season.

It’s great. The funniest Christmas movie ever not boring even for a minute. A must watch every year


(8 out of 10)

It’s unfortunate that this movie is starting to be overplayed (like many holiday favorites). Either way, this is an iconic Christmas movie!

Again... Not as funny as I remember... Only mildly better than Vacation
