Review of Home Alone (1990) by Steven1981 — 19 Mar 2020

Director Chris Columbus gives us this typical comedy called "HOME ALONE" which was made in 1990 and stars Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern, John Candy and many other actors.. (some women lmao).

Home Alone is a well made film and the traps Kevin McCallister (Culkin) sets for two burglars after his parents leave him home alone by accident are well done and constructed. There are funny scenes galore as the burglars get their hands burnt, slip over and allsorts of daft things whilst trying to break into the McCallister house for money, jewellery and stuff and Home Alone isn't the worst film made but I've a few problems with it.

... Macaulay Culkin who plays Kevin is stubborn, unlikeable and annoying and everyone I watch Home Alone I always want the burglars to win because Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern are more likeable by miles than Macaulay Culkin and funny too so that's a serious problem in this movie that the badguys are in theory the good guys because I love the burglars but hate Macaulay Culkin! My second problem with Home Alone is when Kevin (Macaulay Culkin) after being left at home alone goes shopping by himself as if that wasn't daft enough here comes the big shocker, after he's bought groceries and leaves a police officer chases the little kid who's not fast but fails to even stay with him let alone catch him because he's some fat, elephant sized man in a suit and an obese police officer who's unhealthy.

. This scene is an insult to all police officers around the world and is so unrealistic. These are my problems with Home Alone and Culkin sucks but great acting by the burglars, Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern and even John Candy and I rated Home Alone a 3 because of the burglars and the burglars only and that's being generous because the rest of the film is crap.
