    Loved this reaction video. (A year too late, glad I found it.) Btw, home sizes in the USA vary greatly. I live in a typical middle income suburban community in the US and homes here are as large (or larger) as the main home featured in this film! It’s a pretty standard-sized home in suburban America, at least where I grew up and where I live now. It’s really interesting watching foreigners critique US films-a lot of the classic 80s and 90s American movies really do encapsulate what it was like growing up then in the States. Those films are hugely nostalgic for us. Great video, thanks!

    Christmas Vacation is probably one of the greatest comedy films of all time in my opinion. Now that you've watched this one though you have to go back and watch the first one. Vacation and Christmas Vacation are pretty close in terms of hilarity but I couldn't choose which is better. European Vacation is good but very different in terms of the comedic tone as it feels more like....well....a European comedy. Vegas Vacation is good just not nearly as good as the original or Christmas but I do like it better than European. Hope you guys get around to watching the first one eventually and love the content as usual!
