Herein is a relaxed and familiar comedy for the whole family, but probably best suited to an older audience.Jerry O'Connell takes over the role of Shepherd's literary persona, Ralph, with James B. Sikking applying his prodigious talent to the role of the "old man." The movie actually contains three plotlines, one about Ralph taking a summer job, one about the family losing their dog, and the final story about the family cartrip to Michigan for some fishing. This is familiar territory for my family, as we have lived/been born/vacationed/worked in northern Indiana or southern Michigan for my whole life.The job subplot isn't bad, but the dog story comes from a little out of left field. The vacation story is the over-arching story, and the road trip part of the movie will be very familar to any good red-blooded, red-meat eating, red-car driving Midwesterner. For the record, my sister was the cranky kid.This isn't high cinema, but if you come from a functional family and want to reawaken some warm memories, or if you come from a dysfunctional family and want to see that even the best of families have their quirks, sit a spell on a Saturday afternoon and pop this movie in. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Ollie Hopnoodle: Sequel to a Great Christmas Classic *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2002* Hi, movie fans! This 1988 hilarious TV movie about a summer vacation to Michigan is based on the 1983 movie A Christmas Story, another hilarious movie. This is a movie narrated by Jean Shepherd, who also narrated Christmas Story and wrote novels, which his movies werer based on. Ralph Parker(Jerry O' Connell) and his family including his father(James B. Sikking) go on a vacation to a place with cabins by a lake called Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven of Bliss. I think Sikking does just as good of a job of playing the father in Christmas Story(Darren McGavin). They both do great. This is a great movie. Get it! It's REALLY funny! ### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed *by O***3 on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2011* I read all the other reviews on Amazon before I purchased this movie. I was anxious to see it because I love "The Christmas Story" so much, that I figured its sequel would be just as great, however, I was very disappointed.The actors (especially the father and mother) couldn't come close to Darrin McGavin and Melinda Dillon's portrayl of the Mother and the Ol' Man. Why weren't their talents used in this film? Ralphy was only okay, and Randy was way too young. If you go along with the first film, the boys weren't that far apart in age.All in all, this film is weak and really doesn't hit the mark like "The Christmas Story". --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/89157057-ollie-hopnoodles-haven-of-bliss-vhs](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/89157057-ollie-hopnoodles-haven-of-bliss-vhs) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-11-06*
