Movie Reviews of The Great Outdoors
Movie Review: "Don't you know what those are made out of????"
Summary: 5 Stars
This is by far one of the greatest comedy films of all time, along side classics such as animal house, caddyshack, and the Vacation Series. John Candy and Dan Aykroyd are brother in laws who end up coming together by "chance" at a Cabin in the north woods. Over the vacations time, the families discover new things about each other, strengthen their bonds, oh, and make you laugh until your sides split. This movie has it all, animal talk, overeating, stupid human tricks, "scary stories", action, thrills, and romance. What more could you want in one package. Buy this movie, well worth the price, cause you'll watch it over and over again.Movie Review: I sure miss John Candy
Summary: 5 Stars
I've watched this many times on cable, but just now started my John Candy DVD collection. Candy plays a fantastic 'sympathetic stumblebum' with a heart of gold and a family that loves him, but are sometimes a little embarrassed of him. He's looking forward to a relaxing vacation when his rich, annoying brother-in-law invites himself to join the fun at the cabin in the woods. Lot's of funny antics (one of my favorite scenes involves the racoons...though I no longer eat hotdogs, 'we know what they're made of').

Movie Review: Absolutely Hilarious!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is a family favorite and we think John Candy's best! I think so many of us can relate and the constant antics kept us in stitches. How many of us can actually eat a steak that big - including the gristle? The bald headed bear getting shot in the rear was a grand moment for us and we were almost sick from laughing! The only uninteresting part for us in the movie was the love interest between the two teenagers, but the rest of it was fantastic. This movie is a must see even if you aren't a John Candy fan!Movie Review: A Perennial Favorite
Summary: 5 Stars
We watch this movie at least once per summer while at the lake in Wisconsin. There's nothing like it to make the entire family crack up laughing with nearly every scene. This movie is as much a part of our family summer vacation as the stay in the Northwoods alone.
You can't go wrong with this classic movie, The Great Outdoors. We watch it at least once per summer at our Northwoods resort, profiled in the book I'm Living Your Dream Life: The Story of a Northwoods Resort Owner
Movie Review: The Funniest Movie Ever Made
Summary: 5 Stars
I know 70 people have already reviewed this movie, but I have to add this is the funniest movie ever made. The two scenes of John Candy skiing behind the race boat and the scene with the bear in the cabin causes me to hurt myself with uncontrollable laughter (at least 15 times). Even the trailers at the end of the movie are hilarious with the raccoons discussing the bad luck of the bear and everyone dancing at the bar to "Land of a thousand dances".
