by AliventiAsylum  in Movies,  - Top 50, Dec 20 '06
Pros: acting, pace, comedy
Cons: family and characters are not particularly sympathetic to begin with
Just about everyone has one of those moments when their family is just so completely on their nerves, they no longer think they can stand the situation. Inside or out loud they make the wish that they were alone and everyone was gone. Of course, it ...

Pros: Funny, entertaining Christmas Movie
Cons: Kevin's family not likable. Certain things not believable. Could be too silly for some viewers.
I love Christmas movies and watch several every year. I really enjoyed Home Alone< b>< i> the first time I saw it many years ago and I still enjoy it when I watch it now. Kevin McCallister< b> was less than thrilled with his ...

Pros: Culkin is cute, the bandits are hilarious, not boring
Cons: The situation is horrifying, if it were true.
One of the highest grossing box office Christmas time movies ever made, Home Alone has not only corrupted the Christmas spirit, but milked it for all it was worth, not once, but several times. Oh all right. Only twice more, and only once more for...

Pros: hilarious, good messages about family and not judging a book by its cover
Cons: excessive cartoonish violence in the break-in scene; those robbers would be dead if all that happened to them
This is the movie that made MacCauley Culkin a household name. Kevin McCallister, an eight-year-old with an attitude, is feeling smothered by all of the relatives that crowd his house. When his brother Buzz eats the last piece of cheese pizza and Kevin...

Pros: Laugh-out-loud funny!
Cons: Kevin can get away with a lot that I'd never have gotten away with!
Home Alone came out when I was in eighth grade. Going to see it was a momentous occasion because it was the first time my mother let my fifth grade brother and I walk down to the movie theatre on the corner of our street and see a movie by...

Pros: Great Physical Humor
Cons: Adults portrayed as idiots
Every now and then, my youngest son gets on a "kick" wanting to watch a series of movies during a weekend. This weekend he again took out what I consider to be one of his most favorite movies and sequels, Home Alone out once more to view probably...

Pros: no sex. no bad language. everything works out in the end
Cons: implausible. sadistic.
Growing up in the suburbs of Orange County, California in the 1970's was a very different time and place than the modern world has become. We locked our doors back then, but we also walked to school by ourselves. No one considered me a latch-key child...

Pros: A dramatic comedy suitable for the entire family I would not mind watching repeatedly.
Cons: None!
I have to admit, Christmas time in New York City is filled with holiday lights everywhere. You will not pass one block without at least one of the houses or buildings on that block with beautiful Christmas decorations. Yet, it is not the lights and ...

Pros: Many funny scenes; cute, innocent atmosphere; great performances.
Cons: It's trying to have it both ways of being silly but realistic.
"Home Alone" is probably every boy's fantasy; defending his/her home and family against bad guys by using the same techniques they see on their favorite cartoon show. However, when we consider the fact the film is centered around a 10-minute ...

Pros: funny, well-structured
Cons: violence, corniness, shallow
Following bit roles as “cute little boy without many lines,” with the release of Home Alone, child actor Macaulay Culkin briefly exploded onto the Hollywood scene. The reasons for this were relatively simple—first off, the movie was a hit, thus its...

Pros: A warm, charming, & sentimental holiday tale mixed with a lot of laughs!
Cons: The parts where Kevin terrorizes the bad guys make me cringe due to the "ouch-factor"!
This is my favorite holiday movie! I have to say that every holiday season, I look forward to digging this video out of our collection and popping it in to revisit Kevin McCallister, his crazy family, and of course the two dim-wit burglars known as the...

Pros: Hilarious, Fast Paced Comedy
Cons: Not a single one
It's been a while since this movie came out, 10 years, but it's some of the best family entertainment I've seen in a long while. I just watched it again and it was as enjoyable as it was back then.
Plot Overview
A 8 year old...

Pros: Tons of fun for the whole family; fun to watch the bad guys get pounded. :)
Cons: Repetitive; some parts are just pointless & dumb.
I thought this was a fairly funny movie. The whole plot was unique and my whole family enjoys how the small child pounds the "bad guys" into dust.
Complaints
I have two complaints. One is that the guys never die!Not that...
