Cousin eddie vegas vacation12/29/2023 No nudity is shown (this is a PG movie after all) but the dancing is mildly suggestive and is something to be aware of. Lastly the daughter of Randy Quaid is a cage dancer in a nightclub and gets the Griswold daughter into doing the same thing with her at one point catching her parents and brother by an unpleasant surprise. So this could encourage the wrong message that it is ok to spend time with someone romantically who likes another person even though they are married. Additionally, there is a subplot of Wayne Newton hitting on Ellen Griswold and the family goes off alone through Vegas one day while she visits Wayne Newton alone and she even has dinner with him when she and Clark the dad, take a break from each other after having an argument. The dad blows his whole family savings trying to win against a blackjack dealer, which hopefully can get kids to understand the dangers of gambling. This movie makes gambling look a lot more fun and rewarding than it is in real life. It is best to discuss with your kids if you haven't already that there is no way this could happen in real life and discuss the dangers of gambling with them. So this movie could encourage messages that underage gambling is ok. Considering the Griswold's destination is Vegas you might think this would be the raciest film in the series but it is surprisingly the cleanest with a PG rating in contrast to the first film being rated R and the following 2 sequels being PG-13, but still this one is not for little kids, as there still is swearing (albeit much milder than the earlier films but still a lots of hells and damns and even one g-n), as well as innuendo and a subplot where the son of the Griswald's becomes a popular and underage gambler.
