	Review: Christmas Vacation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Christmas Vacation is considered by many film critics to be a "guilty pleasure" - largely because some of the set pieces are as hilarious as they are juvenile.
		Christmas Vacation marked John Hughes' final outing with the Griswolds (he was not involved in the 1997 flop, Vegas Vacation).
		Many of the common "Christmas situations" are crammed into these 90 minutes: the trek to get the family Christmas tree, shopping at a department store, fumbling around in the attic, putting up the decorations, cooking the holiday dinner, and dealing with too many relatives in too little space.

	National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation!
		The spirit of Christmas took over his soul, and he worked his ass off to make one of the goofiest, asinine scripts ever written into a movie worth watching.
		Then he starts explaining his previous plan to cut out Christmas bonuses, leaving the lead cop to deliver the best line of the movie.
		The squirrel is the enemy, the true scourge of the Christmas season.

		His dreams of "the most fun-filled old-fashioned family Christmas ever" soon give way to the realities of bulbs that won't light and a pine that's too big for the living room.
		Of course, this is but a small setback in Clark's quixotic quest for the perfect Christmas, a search that becomes a chain of handyman's mishaps and neighborhood feuds, a veritable flurry of foolishness.
		"Christmas Vacation" may not be a fancy package, but it is a diverting stocking stuffer.

	Christmas Vacation
		We believe that's what it means to be "in the Christmas spirit." So we decorate the house, go to parties, and listen to Christmas music that we've heard hundreds of times before, and watch movies like Christmas Vacation trying to generate those warm fuzzies.
		And so does "Christmas according to the rest of the world." The material expectation is why retail stores put up their Christmas displays in October.
		Christmas is not about expectations or luck, but it's not about Jack Daniels, either.

	Vacation Rentals - Resources for Vacation Rentals
		Planning a vacation can become a major undertaking by the time you are finished.
		One major benefit that rental properties have over packaged vacation plans is that they allow the vacationer to plan and schedule their vacation to suit their needs and desires and also allows them to make plans on their own terms.
		Unlike many packaged vacation plans, vacation rentals accommodate the vacationer’s schedule as opposed to the vacationer having to accommodate a pre-set schedule of events.

	National Lampoons Christmas Vacation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Of all the Christmas films that we are lucky (or unlucky) to receive this for me is one of the all time classics.
		The story is further caricatured by John Hughes who wrote and produced the film and it makes the story a little bit more over the top than you may have experienced at home, but it definitely churns out the laughs from the very beginning.
		The extra's are lacklustre text based affairs with only trailers for the whole "vacation" series to lift it up slightly, Picture is also an issue with the annoying decision to only include the full screen version (a la Happy Gilmore) and the sound is average with Dolby Surround.

	Mutant Reviewers from Hell do "Christmas Vacation"
		The only Vacation to be situated at the Griswold house, Christmas Vacation takes the most peaceful of holidays and turns it into a full scale riot.
		Yet, Christmas Vacation is smart enough to have a couple slow, sentimental bits (such as Clark watching home movies in the attic) and even some stand up and cheer scenes.
		Since I was, I dunno, probably about 16 or so we’ve not gone a year without watching Christmas Vacation, and I will be taking my VHS tape of it out to Spain with me next week as I jet out to my parents palatial mansion so we can continue to keep the dream alive.

		The problem with CHRISTMAS VACATION is that, while it does contain some very funny scenes with lots of great, memorable one-liners, it is marred by inferior direction on the part of first-time director Jeremiah Chechik.

		Plot Synopsis: It's Christmas time and the Griswolds are preparing for a family seasonal celebration, but things never run smoothly for Clark, his wife Ellen and their two kids.
		Of the three successful entries, "Christmas Vacation" is the best, perhaps even eclipsing the first movie that started it all.
		His attempts to cover every square inch of his house with Christmas lights is a chore requiring several falls off a ladder, pointed verbal repartees with his snotty neighbors Margo and Todd Chester (Julia-Louis Dreyfus and Nicholas Guest), and repeated failures to get the strands to light up.

	DVDFILE.COM: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation review
		The third trip with the Griswalds, Christmas Vacation, is by far the funniest.
		New to this go-round are EG Marshall, Diane Ladd and Julia Louis-Dreyfus when she was only known as "hey, didn't she used to be on Saturday Night Live?" Another addition, or rather change, is the change in the kids, Rusty and Audry.
		While the Christmas Vacation DVD leaves a lot to be desired, the movie's just so much fun that it's hard to get too down on it.

		National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation is the third instalment of the Griswold family saga and a significant improvement over their previous European Vacation.
		Chase is right at home with the outrageous slapstick and often cheerfully tasteless humour, and John Hughes's script is stuffed full of classic Christmas movie references, but Randy Quaid practically steals the film as the unemployed relative with his malicious grin and mooching lifestyle.
		This is great fun for all ages and a 'must watch' during the christmas holidays.
