We're going to have to take this one slow . . like our main character.This probably isn't the worst production we've ever seen (although the effects are comically bad) and it isn't the worst acted movie we've ever seen (the actors are trying pretty hard but try is the key word) but at the end of an hour and forty minutes we were all pretty much in agreement that this was the most painful movie we have watched so far.
"Christmas Vacation 2: Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure" follows Cousin Eddie of the National Lampoon's "Vacation" movies as he gets into wacky hijinks and ends up getting a trip to Hawaii(?) for his family including Chevy Chase's daughter. This movie is a comic void. We could hardly find the bad effects funny because laughing during this movie just reminds us how none of the actual jokes written into the script warrant anything but a loud groan. There's exploding toilets, a gassy dog, and a sexually harassing grandfather, alongside the same stretch of street that resides in both the Midwest and Hawaii, a terrible green screen, and a hose that represents a urine stream.
When it ended, we all just hung our heads, screamed, or hid. Would recommend to someone who hates the world and wants to hate it more.
