Vacation Represents the Demise of the Modern Comedy
The last Vacation venture voyages into a vast void. It is the prime example for the current state of modern comedies in modern cinema. A grown Rusty Griswold (Ed Helms) is now a pilot for low budget airline and wants to spice things up for his family by taking a vacation to Wally World to relive his experience with his own family. Guess what happens. The movie has a decent cast, anchored by Helms, Christina Applegate as the faithful wife, Debbie, and Skyler Gisondo and Steel Stebbins as the sons, James and Kevin, respectively. This ensemble is about the only good thing for this aimless, meaningless trip. They have their quirks, and play their parts well - especially Applegate and Stebbins, who almost steals the show. Unfortunately, there is not much of a show to steal. First, is the writing. Today's modern comedy writers have no idea to write humor. Instead of using situation, character and dialog, they use gross exaggeration, excessive disgust, and over-the-top profanity. Even the main theme song has the F-word dropped every second. The disgust ranges from a swim in a sewage-infested pond to driving an ATV through a cow. The gross exaggeration is not just in the raunchy humor, but also in the situations and the characters. This ranges from an idiot brigade of a law enforcement stand-off from each of the Four Corner States to a needless and idiotic family on family brawl in the line for the roller-coaster. Oh, and don't forget Stone (Chris Hemsworth) who has to parade his abs as well as his manhood in tight-fitting underwear. Even Chevy Chase falls into the trap of overacting the part. The sad thing is there were a few moments that shined through. Applegate shows desperation as she struggles in a boring, predictable marriage. Helms, when he isn't overacting, is concerned about the whole family. Even Stebbins and Gisondo's sibling rivalry ends with some mutual respect. All that is lost for the sake of grossing out the audience. The original Vacation had wit in its comedy. You didn't have to see the dog wet on the picnic basket, the funny part was Chevy's reaction to finding out the fact. We didn't have to see Blinky get torn to bits on the highway, but got a real kick out of Chase concealing his joy from the Highway Patrolman. One of the best scenes was Chase's tirade in the car - when we finally hear the F-Bomb - indicating his patience had run out. The descent of modern comedies in this day and age is reaching a nadir and it shows no promise of climbing out of the muck. Vacation is a clear indication that we need a vacation from Hollywood Comedies that are not funny.
