Film and television reviews by our resident autistic film critic Maymay.
Rusty Griswold takes his own family on a road trip to “Walley World” in order to spice things up with his wife and reconnect with his sons. The next generation of Griswolds is at it again—and on the road for another ill-fated adventure. Following in his father’s footsteps and hoping for some much-needed family bonding, a grown-up Rusty Griswold (Ed Helms) surprises his wife, Debbie (Christina Applegate), and their two sons with a cross-country trip back to America’s “favorite family fun park,” Walley World.
It wasn’t the best movie but it had some funny moments. The little brother was annoying and mean. I liked Chris Hemsworth in the movie. I’m sure that would be considered the worst vacation ever no matter what the outcome was. I would really dislike to have that kind of vacation. It had some really gross things in it and I wish they didn’t because it really was disgusting. Didn’t really like the cannibal cow Sebastian but it wasn’t as bad as Ed Helms covered in cow guts for driving right through a cow and Sebastian eating it. That was disturbing. The did mention the original Vacation once which I like when newer movies reference the older versions. It’s not a I have to see this kind of movie. I think visiting the landmarks would be really cool. Who would not want to stand at the four corners of the states? You could be in four places at once. I think that’s pretty cool. I also think the Grand Canyon would be cool to see in person.
