Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
This hit-and-miss 1988 comedy pairs John Candy and Dan Aykroyd in a story of one family's summer vacation all but ruined by the uninvited appearance of another, more loutish family. Howard Deutch (Some Kind of Wonderful) directs from a half-hearted John Hughes script, which reduces Hughes's jokes-and-epiphanies formula (The Breakfast Club, Home Alone) to true gaudiness. On the other hand, Annette Bening makes her screen debut here. The DVD release has a widescreen presentation, production notes, trailer, optional French soundtrack, and optional Spanish subtitles. --Tom Keogh

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A favorite
One of our family favorites. Not an Oscar contender, but a simple move that is funny for the family.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - CLASSIC!! Needs to be in your movie collection
I love this movie, if you have ever gone on a family vacation you can relate. Its just a classic John Candy flick and hilarious. A movie I can watch over and over and never get sick of.
A must have, it was a hit when I saw it in the 80's and still one of my favorites.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Family Fun
This is a great movie to just sit down with the family and have some good laughs. John Candy is Hilarious and this is one of his greatest. I highly recommend this movie for the whole family to enjoy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An 80s must have!
This is one of my favorite films (that is a huge list by the way). As you may have gathered already it's about a family vacation that goes downhill when another family decides to show up with no invitation to join them in their cabin.

The comedy is perfectly 80s and a John Candy gem. Though some may say this is a family movie please be warned there is some minor use of "adult" language mostly A** and Sh** with a few adult situations. Movie ratings were not so strict back then so if you ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Outdoors
This is one of the greatest movies ever, I got it for my husband for Christmas and he had to watch it Christmas day.
