CRITICS OF "The Great Outdoors"

Antagony & Ecstasy

Charming when it works, when it is based primarily in the interplay between characters or in the writer's unabashed nostalgia for a kind of cozy Americana.

Henderson Home News (Henderson, NV)

Classic John Candy and Dan Akroyd

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)

Harmless, pointless time-killer

August 13, 2003

eFilmCritic.com

Two funny guys delivering very few laughs.

July 29, 2002

Your Movies (cleveland.com)

Awful.

IdentityTheory

At the onset it seems that Candy, as in Uncle, plays the lower class half. Yet, by [Outdoors'] end we learn that the in-law is actually broke, essentially Cousin Eddie in disguise.

Candy & Aykroyd make for a hilarious duo in an otherwise routine comedy.

Kansas City Kansan

Zany, over the top klutz comedy with Aykroyd and Candy.
