This looks like fun

I was worried when I heard this was going to be "remade", but it seems it's more of a reboot/continuation, with the Griswald son now grown up. Could be fun..

yea, its much better than if it would be a remake

Will watch this, just sad that Chevy doesn't have a bigger part.

Is Cousin Eddie in it?

LOL, doubt it. Have you read anything about Randy Quiad over the past few years?

He didn't look too good in the last photo I saw, but you know, give him a shower and a shave….

It's more than that. Google him and read about his problems over the past few years.

i loathe remakes and i was so upset to see that they were doing this again, especially with the same name "vacation". i have to admit though that i really enjoyed this movie. it's not a remake but a new film trying to capitalize on a successful franchise. that being said there were a lot of laughs. the opening credits were hilarious with the vacation photos. the first scene i had to pause because i laughed so hard was of course the one with christina applegate doing the obstacle course. i'm not usually a fan of slapstick but when she jumped and landed bad i was in tears because it was so funny. truth be told chris helsworth really stole the show with every scene and i also really enjoyed skyler gisondo's scenes too.

I enjoyed it enough. I like the Kiss From A Rose motif (with a pay off in the closing credits). And that they went meta with their 'redo this vacation' comments.
