i will never forget the wit and great comedy of the original vacation movie . the line and pacing and and timing of event in that film be outstanding . however and this european vacation sequel be a major let down . in this sequel and the griswalds win a european vacation on a game show . the problem be that many of the joke in the film be little more than mild and ha ha laugh . for example and a flight attendant on an airplane ask clark and do you want your coke in the can . clark answer back and no and i will have it right here . that really about the only line that be funny in this film . european vacation humor be strain . a if the writer borrow all the joke from the first movie and try to re hash a script that have be do before and and rely on a ridiculous slap stick chase scene sequence toward the end of the picture just to kill time . bad and the natural comic standouts like randy quaid a cousin eddie and the original kid who play rusty and audrey from the first movie so well be nowhere to be find . their replacement be not funny and can not act and and just look like they be go through the motion most of the time . there be also a few crude sex joke and comment that be not only not funny and they be in bad taste . the griswald should have stay in wally world . the place that make them legends . don not join them on this european dreadful adventure . viewer should re watch the original vacation movie in place of this . you will be glad you do .
