If you loved The Odd Couple II, try The Great Outdoors
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Howard Deutch, and they both carry the cozy, playful mood tags, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Odd Couple II, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Great Outdoors is
The Great Outdoors practically tries to be National Lampoon with less plot. A Chicago family’s lakeside retreat is hijacked by their insufferable in-laws. It’s all elbows and eye rolls until someone finally reels in a fish.
