Rating: 
- A play-it-safe kind of comedy
You pretty much know that any film featuring both John Candy and Dan Aykroyd is going to generate some laughs, making The Great Outdoors a pretty safe bet for anyone in the mood for a little comedy - and comedy is basically all you should expect here (any film that supplies subtitles for raccoon conversations isn't really trying to express anything meaningful), despite the fact that John Hughes wrote the script. For once, Hughes' involvement does more harm than good. While The Great Outdoors is certainly a good movie, it's not a very good John Hughes movie. Of course, it's hard to follow 80s classics like The Breakfast Club and Pretty in Pink, but Hughes' heart just didn't seem to be in this one. This is best demonstrated by the teenaged romance part of the story, which stumbles from the start and really goes nowhere at all. When you come right down to it, there just isn't any real depth to any of the characters in this film - and that's just not something you expect to get from John Hughes.
All Chet Ripley (John Candy) wanted was a nice family vacation in the country, a week to relax with his wife and bond with his two boys, especially the older one (frankly, I'm not really sure why the younger son was even in the movie). What he got was a "surprise" in the form of his brother-in-law Roman Craig (Dan Aykroyd) and his rather strange family (with Annette Bening playing Mrs. Craig) turning up out of the blue to vacation right along with him. You can't just tell family to get out, though, even if that family includes an arrogant, rich, know-it-all like Roman. Chet does his best to grin and bear it, but you know it's just a matter of time before he loses it. When the inevitable does happen, it triggers a series of important events that re-draw some of the main characters, even giving Roman a heretofore unsuspected (albeit rather narrow) depth. Despite this, and a strangely insignificant summer romance between Buck (Chris Young) and a local girl (Lucy Deakins), The Great Outdoors really just plays for laughs and nothing else. Some of the more memorable scenes include Chet's wild water ski ride and, of course, the battle pitting Chet and Roman against a bat. You'll definitely laugh at several different moments, but the film never really elevates itself to the side-splitting plateau of comic genius. In many ways, this was a pretty safe comedy - it doesn't break any new ground, but it's a really comfortable fit. That would be okay for many a filmmaker, but The Great Outdoors just doesn't live up to John Hughes' usually higher standards.

- TOP CLASS
John Candy at his hilarious best!! One of the all time great family films with the feel good factor
Rating: - Long Live The King Of Movie Comedy
From the opening scene of the family driving to there destination to the closing scenes of the proclamation, "BIG BEAR CHASE ME", this film will have you in stitches from start to finish!
John Candy (Comedy God), stars in this fun film for all the family.
I belive any movie that stared Candy is pretty damn good, but this film is made even funnier by the arrival of Dan Akroyd, who plays Candys'uninvited rich, arrogant brother-in-law, who is always trying to get one up on everyone.
I can't recommend this movie enough.
Being from around the same time as other movies such as Uncle Buck, Three Amigos and Trains Planes and Automobiles, you know what sort of vein this film will be in.
Buy it or regret it forever!!
Rating: - The Great Outdoors
This is an excellent film and not given enough due credit. John Candy teams up with his brother Dan Ackroyd on a family holiday to the lakes. Things go wrong and they end up on a bear hunt. This film is superb, and if you have seen planes,trains and automobiles and liked it, this film is definalty for you! and as much as my mate thinks that JOHN BELUSHI is in this film, he is not (nick!)
why dont they make films like this one anymore! andy
Rating: - GOOD WHOLESOME FUN.
DAN AKROYD AND JOHN CANDY, NEED WE SAY MORE. THESE ARE TWO OF THE GREATEST COMEDY VETERANS. IF YOU HAVE A SILLY STREAK IN YOU , LIKE WE ALL DO, YOU CANNOT HELP BUT LOVE THIS MOVIE. IT IS A 'MUST SEE' FILM IN MY BOOK, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE SUCKER FOR THE EIGHTIES COMEDIES LIKE ME. BUY IT, FOR LESS THAN 6 QUID, THE EQUIVALENT OF FISH AND CHIPS TWICE, YOU CAN TICKLE YOUR FUNNY BONE ENDLESSY.
