Kyle Smith

RV stands for "Retread of 'Vacation,'" or possibly "Robin's Vehicle," but to me it's funnier than "National Lampoon's Vacation." I always found Chevy Chase's road trip more unpleasant than outrageous, but RV has laughs spilling out of its overhead bins. Read full review

Jami Bernard

The funny thing about RV - no, it's not the jokes, which mostly bomb - is that the characters are actually pretty likable. It's an odd achievement for a road-trip comedy that wants desperately to be loved for its potty jokes, not its humanity. Read full review

Justin Chang

RV works up an ingratiating sweetness that partially compensates for its blunt predictability and meager laughs. Read full review

Ty Burr

RV has teeth -- more teeth than the last few Steve Martin films, anyway -- but it's terrified to bite down, knowing that the paying audience would feel it more than anyone. Read full review

Kevin Crust

The bedraggled movie limps along to its phony hogwash of an ending, adding the ignominy of sentimentality to its previous sin of being so derivative. Read full review

Keith Phipps

Apart from a funny turn by "Arrested Development's" Will Arnett as Williams' evil boss, nobody appears to be having a good time. And the feeling is infectious. Read full review

Marc Savlov

Isn't it time to put Robin Williams out to pasture? There's precious little mirth to be had via RV after the comically nasty opening set-up. Read full review

I really liked it. I was impressed that there was no nudity or cursing. It showed real talent.

I have a hard time understanding why this movie was panned. I went with my wife and two kids, and they all loved it. Yes, it is slapstick, and there is one bit about the RV's toilet, but hey they are in a car with a toilet. But the pacing and the multidimensional characters are spot I have a hard time understanding why this movie was panned. I went with my wife and two kids, and they all loved it.

We haven't laughed so hard at a movie maybe ever. Robin Williams is brilliant in a role that uses his acting and his comedy.… Expand

Somewhat Funny..... But Robin Williams Is Getting Bad In His Movies! He Is To Overrated! :)
The Acting Is So-So As Well As The Plot...
I Did Not Like The "Physical Comedy" In This Sorry!

An unfunny road comedy that's perhaps not as family friendly as its advertised to be.

I hate giving movies a "0". But my soul is perfectly at rest when giving one to RV. My fiance laughed a grand total of 0 times, and I laughed five times as much as she did. Honestly, did the writers truly think that having the RV roll down a hill or across a parking lot FIVE times was going I hate giving movies a "0".
