| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderA paralyzingly unfunny and desperate comedy. It dulls the senses and aggravates the mind. There hasn't been a movie this painful to watch since "The Passion of the Christ." |
| Dallas Morning NewsMatt WeitzThe film does have some funny moments, but they don't come consistently. |
| Eclipse MagazineSean O'ConnellPlays out like the pilot episode for a sitcom that no network picked up. |
| Internet ReviewsSteve RhodesA good-spirited comedy filled with likeable characters, it warms the heart while it tickles the funny bone. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookNone of the stars in this dopey rip-off of the Chevy Chase series deserves to be in this. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneJeff StricklerVacations are supposed to make you feel better, and Johnson Family Vacation does just that. |
| Film BlatherEugene NovikovWas probably always destined for mediocrity. |
| Los Angeles TimesKevin ThomasAn easygoing, earthy comedy that's a good showcase for the robust comic gifts of Cedric the Entertainer. |
| Washington PostMichael O'SullivanCedric the Entertainer is the best (and probably only) reason to take this "Vacation." |
| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyMechanical performances by Vanessa Williams and Bow Wow, as Nate's musically inclined son, impair Cedric's earnest comedic efforts in this spasmodic comedy. |
