Climbing aboard their mammoth recreational vehicle for a cross-country road trip to the Colorado Rockies, the Munro family – led by dysfunctional patriarch, Bob – prepares for the adventure of a lifetime. But spending two weeks together in one seriously small space has a way of cramping their style.

Robin Williams is as usual funny. Nothing new. Nothing special. The rest is not funny at all. And generally the humor is quite low. Unless you think an explosion followed by a high pressure pump shower is funny and in that case, this might be the movie just for you.The script is also nothing special. Stock characters that move as expected. A bad boss who is, well, bad, but no explanation for his stupidity or the stupidity of his underlings. Or short: I hope you can fast forward when you get to see this.

Bob Munro and his dysfunctional family rent an RV for a road trip to the Colorado Rockies, where they ultimately have to contend with a bizarre community of campers. RV benefits strictly from the late and great Robin William's talent, Josh Hutcherson as a little rapper and that freaking Stallone impression was spot on. Jeff Daniels was also amazing and there's some great messages about parenting alongside the great humor this is definitely one of Robin's most Underrated Works. (8/10)

While "RV" won't join "Good Morning Vietnam", "Dead Poets Society", "Aladdin" or "Mrs Doubtfire" as Robin William's greatest films, it's still worth a look on a lazy/rainy day.Robin Williams plays a father of two ("Curb Your Enthusiam"s Cheryl Hines plays his wife) who - due to pressures at work (Will Arnett plays a fantastic a**hole boss) - changes the family trip from Hawaii to Colorado to make an important presentation. He hires an RV and hijinks ensue as they meet a seemingly hick family in an RV park (played by Jeff Daniels and Kristin Chenoweth).There's a lot of silly slapstick stunts in this movie (like Robin being covered in the RV's sewage), though a scene where Robin saves his son from a group of wannaba wigga basketballer teens shows his improv skills.If you're in the mood for an inoffensive, family-friendly, slapstick heavy ninety minutes, then you could do worse than watch "RV".

My brother has subscribed to a choice TV and as he asked me to pick one movie, i tried this one. I have seen the poster in an X-men comics i have read lately (maybe « Astonishing ») and i was craving for a movie family about vacations. In addition, Williams is such a good actor who surprisingly seems to have disappeared just like that (is he trapped in a lamp ?). Right from the start, you can see this modern « RV » is far from « NL Vacation » : the kids appear less well educated, the wife is money addicted, Williams is the poodle of his boss. Thus, they goes into vacation without heart and the movie is deeply impacted by their negative attitude : it's not really funny, the other family is just boring and the RV just looks like a studio set with blue screen. Maybe the relation between Williams and his daughter is interesting and the final comes as a surprise : for one time, we have a worker saying sh#t to his boss and prefers to be unemployed with a family becoming supportive.
