And somehow it manages to stand the test of time. Chevy is ideally suited the role of the kind hearted but clumsy father. Who is always trying to do best by his family, no matter the odds and Christmas is his favourite time of the year. Too many festive films nowadays are churned out in the hope of catching some of the Christmas spirit. Short on laughs or emotion, they fade away but Christmas Vacation continues to entertain.
Along with Elf, this is a film to watch maybe alternate Xmas holls. No swearing or overtly objectionable instances, so all the family can watch the downfall of the family festivities.
