Overwiew :An overworked Bob Munro, his wife Jaime, their 15-year-old daughter Cassie and 12-year-old son Carl are in desperate need of some quality time together. After promising to take them on a family vacation in Hawaii, Bob abruptly changes plans without telling them. Instead of a week in a tropical paradise, they're going on a road trip to Colorado in a recreational vehicle. Dragging his wife and kids kicking and screaming into the RV, Bob's togetherness plan (which is partly a ruse to keep him from losing his job) almost immediately hits a major speed bump. Everything that can go wrong, does. Bob's lame attempts to navigate the unwieldy, oversized vehicle are met with silence and scorn from his resentful family. The RV life is a far cry from their comfortable life in Los Angeles, and every attempt Bob makes to get them into the spirit of the vacation threatens to tear them further apart. At an RV camp, the Munro family is befriended by the Gornicke family--an irritatingly endearing happy-go-lucky clan of full-time RVers. The more they try to elude the Gornickes, the more their paths seem destined to cross. But adversity has a way of uniting even the most dysfunctional family members and each setback the Munros experience inadvertently helps them become a true family again. |

movie-reviews.colossus.net - : A sample of questions that floated through this reviewer's mind while watching RV... Is the name ''Big Rolling Turd'' supposed to apply to the RV or the movie? Where's Chevy Chase when you need him? And, considering all the movies not being shown to critics this year, why did the studio choose this one to subject us to? more...

www.boxoffice.com - : Robin Williams and company get more mileage than one might expect out of the family comedy ''RV.'' Williams plays Bob Munro, who finds that his family -- including wife Jamie (deliciously played by ''Curb Your Enthusiasm's'' Cheryl Hines), angst-ridden daughter Cassie (''Aquamarine's'' Jojo) and wannabe bodybuilder son Carl (''Zathura's'' Josh Hutcherson) -- has drifted apart in this cold, digital age of communication via instant messaging, cell phones and e-mail. Bob decides to alter their planned vacation to Hawaii for something a little more conducive to real bonding: a cross-country trip in a monstrous lime-green recreational vehicle. more...

www.reel.com - : Early in RV, the bratty kids take one look at the titular vehicle and pronounce it a ''big, rolling turd.'' The same can be said for Barry Sonnenfeld's woefully unfunny family comedy, a scattershot mess that marks a new low for Robin Williams—and that's saying something, considering some of the dreck he's starred in lately, like House of D. Watching this brilliant comedian play a hapless boob of a father in such a patently formulaic broad comedy is both frustrating and depressing. Other than a fat paycheck with a sizable backend deal, what could have possessed him to take the wheel of RV, which generates no more than a smattering of half-hearted laughs during its prolonged running time? more...
