Europe has long been a great destination for holidays, is ever-growing as a hotspot for stag parties and hen-dos, and has a wealth of great culture, scenery and history for anyone interested in exploring. It s no wonder then that it makes such a great setting for vacation movies – and there are any number of films about friends going on European road trips and dream holidays to the continent – any of which make great watching before your own European trip. Here are four examples to check out
European Vacation: What better name to give a film about a vacation to Europe than European Vacation ? (Also known as the National Lampoon s European Vacation). While the film lacks imagination in terms of its name, it s fairly old now (having been released in 1983) so it can probably be forgiven. And as the age and the name might suggest this is a rather slapstick affaire from the old-school of comedy which may be lost on modern malaysia travel agent website discerning audiences. That said if you re a fan of Dana Hill and Chevy Chase, or of the National Lampoon franchise in general, then you ll probably find this entertaining.
Euro Trip: This one is a little more modern and much more in the styling of Road Trip or American Pie. Unfortunately it doesn t quite live up to those two legendary-among-the-right-crowds malaysia travel agent website titles (probably due to the absence of Sean William Scott), but is still a fun high-school road trip movie and might inspire you to consider Europe for your next lads holiday .
The Inbetweeners Movie: The Inbetweeners is a hit British sitcom that went out with a bang with this epic film. Being set in Britain it makes sense that the protagonists would head to Europe (Crete to be specific) for their summer holiday blow-out, and lots of awkward British humour ensues. While Euro Trip is the glossy idealized version of what it s like to be a teen on-tour, this film provides malaysia travel agent website a much more realistic interpretation of the rejection, humiliation and profuse vomiting that really comes from these kinds of jaunts (though it still has a happy ending).
My Life in Ruins: Starring Nia Vardalos from My Big Fat Greek Wedding, this is a film about a tour guide in Greece who hates her job, most of the tourists she shows around, and life in general; but who learns to have fun and falls in love on her last rollercoaster of a tour. It has a 9% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and is seriously just romcom schmalz, but nevertheless is a great showcase for Greece and still fundamentally malaysia travel agent website feel good .
