 | Eight-year-old Kevin is left home alone in the midst of the rush to catch a plane to Paris. Although he feels rather lonely being alone in a big house with no siblings or parents, he also makes the most of having the house to himself, especially when he finds out that burglars are planning to break into it.
This was a really good movie! It doesn't make my favorites list, but it was very entertaining and occasionally laugh-out-loud funny. Some parts were a teeny bit sickening, but you can expect that in any movie. The main thing that I thought was nice was that the bad guys were both funny AND threatening at the same time. Sometimes bad guys are just so goofy that it's hard to believe that they really have any evil in them. But the bady guys in "Home Alone" were a nice mix of evil and funny. Overall, I'm glad I gave this movie a chance. Although I don't recommend it for small children as some parts could be creepy, I think kids 8+ will love it. |

 | First off, I have to say, I am a bit biased in my review of this film, since 1) I LOVE CHRISTMAS and 2)I grew up on it. I think a lot of under-30s love "Home Alone" because it's one of those nostalgic 90's movies. Home Alone is probably best appreciated by young adults who watched it throughout their childhood OR by kids under 12. HAVING SAID THAT...it still rocks!!! Home Alone is a funny, cute, silly, cheesy, delightful, feel-good holiday classic with an offbeat sense of humor. It'll leave you with a warm n' fuzzy feeling, but it's not syrupy-sweet. Overall, Home Alone = HEARTWARMING & HILARIOUS!!!
* If you like Home Alone, check out the sequel - it's good, even though it can't hold a candle to the original. But please, stay away from the other follow-ups...it ain't Home Alone without Macauley. |
