The Movie "Vacation". Reviews about Comedy of 2015

A New Comedy from the writers of the “Obnoxious bosses" of the film “Holidays”, critical reviews have identified as inferior in charm and humor of the original, able to entertain, but does not claim cult status even remotely. The film Comedy “Holidays” is an official remake of the 1983 film of the Director “Groundhog Day” Harold Ramis on the script by the legendary John Hughes.

Storyline

Critics analyzing the film “Holidays”, the reviews usually leave without assessing the plot of the narrative, as John Daley and Jonathan Goldstein only adapted under the present scenario of John Hughes. History, forming the basis of both pictures are identical. The main character – driver of the local airlines to Grow Griswold, a loving husband and father of two sons, decides to make his family a real surprise. Instead of a traditional a vacation in a neighboring state in a miserable camping hut, the main character is going to take the family on a legendary theme «valley of the world”. And begging across America the head of the family is going on a car bought under the original name of “Tartan Horse». Relatives learned of the idea, roll their eyes, not showing any special enthusiasm. And Rusty wants to duplicate his adventure from his childhood, he traveled with his parents on this route and I am sure that his offspring will also be in wild delight.

Change age

No Wonder the film «Vacation» reviews called the mad cocktail. The painting combines features of sequel, remake and reboot (the movie looks like a new starting point for future franchises). The tape draws the beholder into the atmosphere generally warm, with little witticisms and vulgarities and humor of the 80s. But the creators have ignored the main dangers every remake – change the time period (era). Not so much external as internal, is built on political and social contacts, relations in society, on the moral level, freedom and ethics. In 1983 the original movie “Holidays” reviews critics dubbed the innovative work that breaks the traditional shackles of Comedy that raises the screen level of absurdity to the extreme. Now, after the “Bachelor”, “Hen" and other «We – Miller’, a Comedy not looks fresh and original. The audience doesn't react violently to bawdy jokes, profanity uttered by children, and so on. In order to break into the forefront, you need something more powerful.

The New heroes

However, there is considerable merit in the new Comedy, “Vacation”, the actors, for example. Embodied on the screen of the new Central characters could become popular with the public. But the creators and then put them in an impartial form. Christina applegate (“Anchorman”) and ed, Helms (“Hangover”) – a very talented comedic actors, able to satisfy ‘chemistry’ their on-screen heroes. But these fragments, like the stories about the map Jelsma (great tragedian) or narrative on student adventures applegate for actors is embarrassing. Strange method chosen by the authors in order to bind the viewer to the characters in the picture. It is unpleasant to watch and the actors of boys, children really do look inferior. The Skylar Gisondo (“night at the Museum: Secret of the tomb”) and Steele Stebbins (“House with paranormal phenomena 2”) have some experience in the movie.

Sweeten the pot the background

Despite the delights of the authors, the movie played extremely well. The phenomenon of Chris Hemsworth (“Thor”) as exemplary of a stupid Republican for the level of commitment corresponds to almost DiCaprio in the movie "Django unchained". The background of the film are a brilliant actor casting: Chevy chase and Beverly D’Angelo & ndash; pillars of the franchise, awesome Norman Reedus, exceedingly funny Chris Hemsworth, funny man Charlie day and luxury Leslie Mann (“Other woman”). Such an abundance of bright cameo in the second plan practically turned the film into a set of jokes that are not very cleverly linked. Of course, an original story, borrowed the picture of the 1983 bonds old solution components new movie and stale gags sometimes work, but the film “Holidays” (actors is not to blame) lacks integrity.

Summary

In Fairness it should be noted that none of the existing previous sequels of Comedy 1983 failed to achieve the high standards of the original tape. Many of them have sunk to a dull format direct-on-video. Against the background of the project John Daley and Jonathan Goldstein looks cheerful and not at all hopeless, though also loses one of the best comedies of John Hughes and Harold Ramis. Individual viewers can be seen in the comical misadventures of a family of Griswolds purely a satire on the American way of life based on empty illusions and lies. You don't want to aggravate, it is better to remember the “Helen” Andrei Zvyagintsev, so “Holidays” almost about the same, only with hope and funnier.
