Vacation (2015)
A second re-watch and still a hoot with some genuinely funny scenes. Christina Applegate's return to her old college house is class whilst Chris Hemsworth in his underwear is laugh out loud funny especially when Rusty exclaims "Did you see his six pack?" and everyone else, both actors and viewers, shout "No!"
It also helps that Ed Helms is a likable Rusty Griswold as is the always sparkling Applegate as wife Debbie. In fact Applegate completely steals the show on more than one occasion. It ends rather nicely with a visit to see Clark and Ellen and i felt it rather sweet seeing Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo again even if they were little more than cameos.
This is proving to be one of those comedies i return to and still really enjoy every couple of years.
