Couple things here to comment on.

1. Whatever VLAN needs restrictions, gets the ACL. No restrictions, no ACL.
2. ICMP must be permitted in both directions. Otherwise, pings will fail. It can be the same on bidirectional UDP conversations.
3. You can also get the same effects with routing statements that permit some conversations, but which send traffic that is forbidden to a null route.
4. Use a firewall as a router on a stick for better, more granular control of traffic.
Take a baseball bat and trash all the routers, shout out "IT'S A NETWORK PROBLEM NOW, SUCKERS!" and then peel out of the parking lot in your Ferrari.

We want to be restrictive on the ICMP we allow, some is bad,  I might suggest to only allow icmp
echo
echo reply
unreachable
traceroute

only on trusted interfaces, blocked on untrusted interfaces
