Culkin bad film good

Advantages: Culkin, Joe Pesci, the stunts
Disadvantages: Sprung a pretty poor sequel

...most.

HOWEVER, Home Alone by John Hughes is a brilliant film, even if it was badly stretched out across two very similar sequels, and even the despicable Macaulay was halfway tolerable in this film.

Kevin is the youngest child within a pretty massive American family who are going away for the Christmas hols. He behaves badly on the night before they travel and is sent to the attic room. In the confusion next morning ...
...yes, and Mummy makes it home in time for Xmas.

It sound quite naff when summarised like this, but it ain't when you see it. It takes a fiendish mind to dream up all the defensive tricks that Kevin uses and they're genuinely funny. Kids love this film and adults appreciate the nastiness dealt out.

Watch it and enjoy pain.

Slapstick mayhem with kids inflicting the ultimate retribution on les adults is always ... more

In the mean time, Kevin's family realize that they have left him behind and his mother frantically races home by any means possible, with the help of a Polka band leader. Back in 1990 no one had really heard of Macaulay Culkin, and then Home Alone was released and suddenly this young kid was the hottest property in Hollywood. The film focuses on young Kevin as he ...
...Conclusion & Rating ================ Home Alone is undoubtedly one of the most profitable and popular movies of all time (currently sitting 36th in the most profitable charts. It's got nothing to do with amazing plots, special effects or Oscar winning performances. It's purely down to it being a very enjoyable and light hearted film, which appeals to a wider audience than what it was intended for. Even now in my 30s, I still enjoy watching Home ...

...enterprising little boy and is determined they're not going to break in easily if he can help it. The undisputed star of "Home Alone" is Macaulay Culkin, who shot to fame as a result of this film. Considering there are big chunks of the movie where he is the only person on screen, he is likeable and entertaining enough to keep you watching. Culkin, as a kid, had something about him, some kind of weird childlike charisma and an infectious "fun" air ...

Home Alone

Advantages: Comdey none stop
Disadvantages: None

Home Alone, was a classic hit comedy film that was first released in 1991. Even in my adulthood, I am more than happy to watch the film again, and when I was a kid I use to remember watching this film a hundred times during the Christmas holidays and summer holidays. It was such a feel good family fun film; it was the sort of film that even if you’ve watched it once you would never gets bored watching it over and over again. Plot: The film opens ...

However, he soon realizes that Harry, the cop is really a crook who along with Marv break into peoples houses whilst they are on holiday. Will the family be able to get back to save Kevin, will the crooks succeed in breaking into the house or will Kevin have a trap waiting for the crooks. Characters: Kevin McCallister: Kevin ...

Violent and Depraved Or Family Comedy

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...evil cynical reasons. You see, Home Alone to me is the most misunderstood movie out there. The central theme is basically child abuse, Kevin being hideously treated by his negligent parents and at Christmas at all times as they leave him to his own devices whilst they themselves go off to enjoy a holiday without him. Such despicable behaviour precedes the infliction of half an hour of extreme violence and torture upon a couple of burglars by the ...
...which means of course that Home Alone gains itself a release by Disney of all people and a PG rating by the board of censors...hahahaha!!! Now tell me that’s not a little bit funny??? Umm OK, that’s probably not most people's take on the movie, but I'm telling you, I watched this movie again earlier for the first time in ages and its the most violent thing I have seen for a long time. Forget the scene in The Godfather where Marlon Brando's ...

Home Alone 3

Advantages: Funny and great action
Disadvantages: Doesn't relate to Home Alone 1 & 2

Prices: Like Home Alone 2 and 1 this film is available on both DVD and video. I saw the film on TV and therefore haven't bought my own copy but I did spot it in Tesco last week on video for £4.99 and DVD for £6.99 so a definite bargain and one to keep the kids entertained! Who's it for? I thoroughly enjoyed this film when I saw it because although it is not like the first two Home Alone films and has none of the original cast it is well written, funny and lively. The acting is of a high standard and there is a bit of a plot that even adults can get there teeth into and will enjoy. This is definitely a great movie for kids. I think the writer of this film is a bit like Roald Dahl in that he has found a way of making some quite violent actions through Alex become comedic and takes the danger out of them. Kids will definitely ...

Review of Home Alone 3 (DVD)

"This is my house, I have to defend it!"

Advantages: 2 doses of Home Alone goodness!
Disadvantages: Only watchable at Xmas-time!

Christmas songs ever" selection! As a result of growing up with Home Alone, there are few Christmas songs that I can hear without being reminded of the corresponding scene in Home Alone! (Especially Brenda Lee's 'Rocking Around The Xmas Tree'!) Thankfully, although the Home Alone franchise was continued (I believe there is a Home Alone 3 and 4), the clever people at the DVD company have realised that we only really want to watch the first glorious 2 films (the ones with Macaulay Culkin), which are included in this set! So, if you are a child of the '90s and want to re-live some fond memories, then you should most definitely get hold of this set before Christmas time! ...

Review of Home Alone / Home Alone 2 - Lost In New York (DVD)

Home Alone 2: Lost in new York

Advantages: Funny, hilarious and great for kids
Disadvantages: Nothing really!

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York Home Alone 2, Lost in New York is the second in a series of four movies. The first, second and four movies all follow the life of Kevin McAlester who is a relatively normal child, but some how manages to end up home alone... A total of 4 home alone films have bow been made and the fourth one was released on DVD and video over Christmas and is actually a prequel to the other movies. In the first film Kevin's family is going on vacation over the Christmas holidays including his parents, siblings, aunt and uncle and cousins. All goes well; except of one small fact: Kevin is left home alone at Christmas! Enter the wet bandits who are a pair of common thieves and they are determined to steal from Kevin's home. Unfortunately for the wet bandits, Levin has other ideas and rigs up an elaborate plot to ...
