If it wasn't for Pesci and Stern, the film would be ignorable.

Rating: 7/10 (5 December 2009)

Home alone is a movie that is considered a classic. I don't really think of it as a classic. If it weren't for a few things, I think it would be forgettable, but those things make it work. Those things are Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern. Those two made the first film and I guess the sequel fun for me.
Home alone from director Chris Columbus, who is super cheesy, directed this film back in 1990. Everyone of his films is cheesy. Home alone for example, is cheesy. I love you Beth Cooper, the worst film of the year, is very cheesy, The first two Harry Potter films are kind of corny, I mean this guy is the king of cheese. He can't help it for some reason.
Home alone has some very funny moments. That is another reason why I liked it. Macculy Kulkin, who I have never really liked, plays a brat named Kevin Mccalister and he lives in a house with a hundred other people. One day, as they are going to France, the accidentally leave Kevin at home. So while Kevin is home alone and the mom travels back to try and get him, these two Burgalers try to break into Kevin's house. But Kevin isn't going to take it.
The problem that I have with this one and it's sequel is that they are just too cheesy. The acting jobs aren't done too well. But if it wasn't for Pesci and Stern, this movie would be a mess. See it though. It's got some painfully cheesy moments, and some painfully funny moments.
