the city couple andy and elisabeth farmer and play by chevy chase and madolyn smith and leave the city life to move out to the country . he be go to write a novel and but thing doesn not go exactly as plan . lot of disaster make their new life go awry and it seem country life wasn not as simple a they think . in funny farm and all the magic that make the first vacation movie so great be miss . even the silly sequel and national lampoon´s european vacation and seem rather fun in comparison . the joke be predictable and rarely hit the spot . it´s difficult for chase to do anything with this material and his act skill definitely deserve well script . madolyn smith be not bad a his wife and and it´s rather surprising that she hasn not do any act since 1994. with a pretty promising plot and the movie could have be a funny trip to the countryside and but chevy chase have do much good movie . sarah michelle gellar be see in a blink and you miss her appearance and and this might be fun to check out for buffy fan . but this itself be not a reason to sit through this movie and it´s simply to dull . ½ out of .
