I was prepared to enjoy this and it ended up feeling like a dreadful task I had to complete. This wasn't a good movie and definitely doesn't stand the test of time.

The pacing was rough, Clark Griswold is not a fun protagonist to follow and the comedy was all over the place tonally. Randy Quaid is the best thing in this, which is bonkers to say.

...an affable yet thoroughly erratic comedy...

…Christmas Vacation is the Fanny and Alexander of the John Hughes canon, a sincere, wry look back at Christmases past, and a showcase for the great comic talents of Chevy Chase…

It didn't seem like much of a big deal at the time -- in most respects, it still doesn't -- but the passing of years has revealed National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation to be the best in the series.
