rating: 3 QuoteToo many edited scenesQuote
There were too many edited scenes that made this purchase a non value.
1. When driving to the beach, an edited car scene.
2. When arriving at the first beach house, an edited upstairs foyer scene.
3. When in the first beach house, the dog chewing on the sofa leg and the collapse of the sofa.
4. The fabulous boobs scene.
All these scenes were cut out, and when combined, they only add a minute or so longer to the movie.

The location, cast and story line of Summer Rental makes this movie picturesque and lovable. The movies tension is emphasized with a simple plot of small town snobbery vs. working class graciousness. It is lots of fun and a perfect uplift when moods are blue. August 31, 2008

rating: 4 QuoteAnother John Candy Classic!Quote
This film is a delightful break from the mindless comedy of today. It is not John Candy at his absolute best, however it is most definately worth watching more than once, especially if you are a John Candy fan. Also it's a wonderful trip back into the 1980's! If you grew up in the 80's like I did, or if your just simply a Candy fan, you'll enjoy this movie. Definately worth the money! June 10, 2008

I was so surprized to find my grandson had never seen John Candy in Summer Rental. To me this film was the best of his movies (except for Uncle Buck). His antics are typical Candy but the plot is so subtle you almost laugh right by it. I recommend you get the popcorn out early and prepare for an evening of tear-strained laughter! You'll need your best armor for the hilarious battle of the century! Why is this one so little known? After asking more of my grandchildren, none had heard of it. But they have NOW!! And they love it! Try it---You'll like it! I PROMISE! Thank you, Pat Adams June 2, 2008
