With enough sight gags to please slapstick fans and enough good-natured Christmas cheer to qualify as a good holiday film, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation should keep most viewers occupied and provide 97 minutes of goofy entertainment.
Solid family fare with plenty of yocks.
Top CriticEasily the funniest of the four Vacation movies. Just try keeping a straight face when the uncouth Cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) is on screen.

The best of the four “Vacation” movies.
The ultimate family holiday film, playing on both the heart strings and the horror to capture a genuine Christmas spirit.
...a roller-coaster ride of hilarity, poignancy, vulgarity, and just plain dumbness.
the last funny installment of the series

Haven't watched it in awhile, but I remember it well and I remember enjoying it. One of the better Vacation movies (Vegas Vacation is still the best, though).
Amusing Chase vehicle on its way to being a Xmas perennial.
