Alicia I love this movie so much

Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) This 13.5-minute movie was a solid watch. I saw that it is a spin-off from another film and part of a series that has actually quite a few entries. I am not familiar with any of these films, so I just watched this as a standalone film. And it certainly did not disappoint. The early scene with the bellhop and the car was funny and the reception guy added some nice humor as well, especially in his second scene. The jokes basically rely on everything that can go wrong at a hotel. In general, I found the supporting players here were the ones who really made this one worth the watch. Chevy Chase is fine too, but I felt his wife added almost nothing to the movie. All in all, an entertaining watch and I recommend it. Oh yeah and don't be misguided by the title. No horror in here, but 100% comedy.

Nick Damian Basically, this is a commercial of Homeaway.com and what follows is what is trying to be funny. But like all other movies with Chevy Chase, it falls short. Maybe he tries too hard...nope - he definitely tries too hard.If he wasn't so smug and if the film wasn't trying so hard to live off the old movies, it would be better.Beverly D'Angelo makes great character, because she is not so forceful in trying to make funny...her off looks, wry smile and silence just make her good.If you like the other Vacation movies, you will probably view this, but no doubt - you too will be disappointed.Watch it for Beverly, if for no other reason.**A note to film makers... Try NOT to burn your characters out with overdone and rehashed stories that just get lame due to repeated misuse.

Steve Pulaski Hotel Hell Vacation is a short film reviving the classic Vacation franchise from the eighties and nineties. It brings back Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo in their older years playing who they play best; Clark and Ellen. After four (five counting the spin off Cousin Eddie's Island Adventure) feature films, the series gets a nice short film that premiered during Super Bowl XLIV to promote HomeAway Inc.Clark and Ellen, now grandparents, are on their way to their son Rusty's (Greer) house to visit their grand kids. Along the way the couple take a detour to Le Grand Connard, a very uptight and sophisticated hotel. Clark and Ellen experience nothing but problems in this hotel; the room is too small, the rooms aren't very comfortable, the receptionist is pushy, and there is little to no way to get food. The couple are to deal with the unfair and lousy service.Hotel Hell Vacation is a lot more than I expected for a promotional commercial. It's a fun and clever film that revives not only the Vacation franchise, but what I love about it. The humor and the characters. Clark is back with his clever persona and do right attitude along with Ellen and her "stay calm, Sparky" attitude. It's nothing but smiles while watching this short film. If only it could've been a full length movie, then I would've been fully satisfied. I imagine Chase and D'Angelo were tired of the franchise, and just wanted to do this one little thing to wrap up the whole franchise. It's a nice way to close in on a near perfect series.Starring: Chevy Chase, Beverly D'Angelo, and Travis Greer. Directed by: Bryan Buckley.

gizmomogwai National Lampoon's Vacation (1983) is among my favourite comedies; I was disappointed when it didn't make AFI's 100 Years... 100 Laughs list. European Vacation is underrated and Christmas Vacation is enjoyable, but Vegas Vacation (1997) wasn't very good. Well, now the Griswolds are back in this short film, and it's a better note to end on than Vegas Vacation. It's actually got more laughs than Vegas Vacation, and that was a full-length film! The movie is basically about Clark and Ellen Griswold, now grandparents, staying a night at a hotel that (unsurprisingly) isn't as dreamy as they expected.Maybe it's arguable that the Griswolds were more enjoyable as a younger couple (like when Beverly D'Angelo flashed her breasts in the original). However, they're basically still the same luckless fools and recasting Clark and Ellen would have made the movie look cheap. The part where the young man asks the Griswolds how much money they have is a nice reference to the original. The towel talk may have gone on too long, but generally this movie was a worthy chapter in the Vacation series.
