Summary: fitful
Review: I think most of this movie is mediocre at best. It's contrived, formulaic, poorly written and acted. But, the half-hour of slapstick when the burglars are trying to break into the home is SO hilarious, it's worth sitting through the other parts. It's really a hilarious half hour. So, that's a mixed review!

Summary: My fave home alone
Review: This is my favorite home alone movie. Its great to watch at Christmas, or any time of the year! It stars the much younger ex actor who is now 20 years old, Mucuallay Culkin, who plays main charecter, Kevin. Kevin wishes he had no famialy to wake up to after a misshap at supper with the whole big famialy. He wakes up the next morning to find nothing but a silent empty house. The famialy went off on a Christmas vacation, they forgot...KEVIN! Seems young Kevin has a blast...for a while anyway... He learns whats really important to have at Christmas.

Summary: A Christmas Comedy To Be Loved By The Whole Family
Review: One of the only good films of Macaulay Culkin's unimpressive & short-lived film career, Home Alone tells the story of 8 year old Kevin McCallister. When the McCallister family leaves for Paris for the holidays they accidently leave behind Kevin, a smart allect troublemaker (Culkin.) The family panics when learning of his absence, especially his mother, Kate (Cathrine O'Hara.) But Kevin couldn't be more calm, thinking he made everybody dissapear he just goes on doing everything he wants. But that all changes when two would-be crooks set their sights on the McCallister house. Harry & Marv (Joe Pesci & Daniel Stern) soon learn that Kevin is home alone & decide to rob the house a couple of days from Christmas. To bad Kevin overheard the whole plan & advices a plan of his own. He sets up small, but painful, traps all around the house, allowing the thiefs to encounter a world of pain in the process of trying to catch the resourceful Kevin. Followed by the fairly good sequal "Home Alone 2 : Lost in New York" & the awful third film "Home Alone 3" which starred newcomer Alex D Linz.

Summary: A Modern-Day Classic
Review: By now, everybody in the world knows about Macaulay Culkin's private life, well - this is the movie that launched Mac into the public eye and made him a household name. From the antics of the paint cans bowling over the bad guys, to the tense moments of running off with a toothbrush, this family film will have kids watching every time it is put on. In the end, the message of how important family is shines through.

Summary: One Of The Best Christams Family Comedies Ever!
Review: 'Home Alone' being one of the three only good films of Macaulay Culkin's short lived film career is an instant holiday classic. With many laugh out loud scenes & the few touching moments at the end, the film was destined from the beginning to be a pure holiday classic. The McCallister family, leaving for Paris for the holidays, accidently leaves behind their 8-year-old son, Kevin (Culkin). Kevin thinking he made his family dissapear goes on like evrybody's still there, except when two crooks, Harry (Joe Pesci) & Marv (Daniel Stern), set their sights on the McCallister house it's up to Kevin to save the house & destroy the crooks. All the while Kevin's mother (Cathrine O'Hara) tries on & on to return home. The sequels 'Home Alone 2 : Lost in New York' & 'Home Alone 3' were in my opinion just as good as the orginal.

Summary: Home Alone and Loving It.
Review: Just about the only good film Culkin did in his brief and otherwise unimpressive movie career, as a young kid who is accidently left behind at home by his family who go off to Paris, and his mother tries to get home to him before the Holidays come. A very funny apperance by John Candy also boosts this movie's otherwise silly premise.

Summary: Leave this alone
Review: I never bought into the Culkin hype. Here, he is cute, but not a good actor. His line readings are flat, and I sometimes had a hard time understanding what he was saying. The movie's much ballyhooed violence is indeed extreme. The Three Stooges did the same kind of thing with finesse, just funny slapstick that did not leave a mark and you knew was done in jest. Here, Pesci and Stern go through so much I felt myself getting numbed to the consequences. This is just Hollywood fodder wrapped up for the masses; the kind of movie you can turn your brain off and the VCR on. The best scenes here were the ones involving O'Hara and Candy; Rest In Peace, John.

Summary: Unforgettable Christmas Classic
Review: I love watching this movie! Some people say the violence is extreme, but I think it's all just a big joke. A 12 year old kicking the bad guys' butts...pretty much the same plot for many kids movies nowadays. Also watch for John Candy as the polka guy...

Summary: You'll die laughing!
Review: This is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen! Even my dad laughed his guts out watching this and he usually doesn't laugh at any kind of movie what so ever! The tricks and traps Culkin's character sets for the robbers are hilarious! The ending is also very good. A great christmas movie to enjoy and even after 10 years, it still is a great christmas movie to enjoy!
