Vacation is a movie that I’ve seen numerous times and it still manages to make me laugh. In regards to this 4K UHD release, the video transfer is adequate but hardly amazing and the hour-long documentary is missing.
Planes, Trains and Automobiles is still a fantastic, hilarious and, in John Hughes fashion, heartwarming film. For me and my family, it hasn’t quite risen to the traditional yearly viewing that Christmas Vacation has become, but certainly this should be required viewing as well.
Spaceballs is a classic comedy from Mel Brooks, one that I’ve seen a few times over the years and while it’s not a favorite of mine, still makes for and fun and enjoyable 96-minute watch.
Brewster’s Millions was an incredibly fun comedy flick with the great Richard Pryor turning in a hilarious performance set against an outrageous but hilarious premise.
I give a brief breakdown on Mill Creek’s June 7th multi-movie pack releases, specifically Streets of Fear and Midnight Movie Madness. None of these movies are of high-quality and are mainly remembered for the stars sometimes in smaller roles. At basement bargain prices, these might be worthy for collector’s of these cheap sets.
National Lampoon’s Vacation is as funny as ever with a great cast, hilarious jokes and an all around fun storyline filled with a mix of low-brow and even, for the time, risqué humor.
The Rescuers and its sequel The Rescuers Down Under are both fun action-adventure films for both kids and adults alike with some great voice talents headlined by Bob Newhart and Eva Gabor
