Trivia:

The letters OPE and POE from Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) can be seen on the wall of the RV park washroom. This is actually a tribute within a tribute as in the film Raising Arizona (1987), the same initials OPE and POE are displayed in a restroom as well.

Goofs:

Continuity: When Bob is trying to get back from the meeting, he is stuck in traffic. When the camera moves around the RV to look at the traffic, the left side bedroom window is closed. Yet when the RV is climbing the steep mountain, the left side bedroom window is open.

Quotes:

Bob Munro: What are you doing with the Partridge Family?

Lots of fun!

I went to see RV with my husband and my two daughters (5 and 10 years old) and all the family enjoyed it so much... It was FUN. The jokes were smarter than in average American family comedies, though, at the same time, they worked in different levels for different age ranges. Robin Williams was not annoying this time, he was warm and communicate truly desperation. And the weird Gornicke were just adorable. It is an excellent family comedy (a genre that I like a lot, despite the fact that I can't stand other mainstream Hollywood movie genres). I would recommend it to anyone who wants to spend some quality and extremely fun time with his or her family.
