Home Alone (1990)

From my favorite movies..
Best movie of this year hands down!
A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
I have loved this movie since it first came out! It is a great family movie that my whole family enjoys. There is action, comedy, and a lot of fun! It's a great movie for family night!
I've seen it with my niece. Neither she nor I have laughed. Starting from the unreality of the plot, which you do not consider because it is what it is.The actors are not well. This movie went up to Macaulay Culkin but I do not think it's good either.There are family movies that make you laugh and entertain you but it is that this was, is and will be boring.Do not make your children have a boring time
'Home Alone' is about a boy, living in a big house together with quite a view family. It's almost Christmas and the family is preparing to go on a holiday to France! Everyone is busy picking his clothes. The next morning they are leaving to go to the airport. In all hustle and bustle, they forgot Kevin. He's home alone now... Two thieves are making plans to break into the house, where Kevin is still spending his holiday. Is Kevin too clever for the two thieves?This film is absolutely my all-time favorite Christmas story. The main characters and places were chosen well and everything is fitting great. There are very much funny moments in the film and the pace is perfect, nor too fast neither too slow. I watch this movie every year with Christmas and I'm still not losing my focus while watching it. The film creates a nice Christmas feeling. Maybe it's not the best plot, but it's hilarious and I recommend you to watch it with the whole family.Compared to the other 'Home Alone' films, I think part one and two are the best. After part two the cast changed and that made it for me less well.
Oh, come on, IMDb users. How could this film get only a 6.5? Yes, it's a kid's movie, but I know plenty of adults(not including myself) who loved this film. It touches our hearts, and tickles our funny bones. Not to mention I think in one way or another we could relate to it. That's why it remains a classic Christmas comedy.Home Alone is not only one of the highest box office successes of all time, but it deserves more praise. Mac showed a talent that very little child stars have now-a-days. He brought in a great comedy about a boy who accidentally is left home alone when his family goes on vacation and takes on two burglars. Yeah, it's quit unrealistic about the burglars, but honestly, this is a terrific family film. Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern are the perfect comedy duo of two idiots who can't rob the place because a 8 year old child has out witted them and set some clever and very funny traps around the house.Please give this movie a chance, it's just terrific and I guarantee nothing but great laughs for you and the whole family.10/10
