A Christmas classic!

Rating: Null/10 (6 August 2001)

This is a great movie. This is easily Culkin's best. Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern are brilliant and hilarious. In my opinion, this is next to Ferris Bueller's Day Off. What is great about this film is that it has great acting, a reasonable plot, although unrealistic. Some people have said that this movie was too violent. Hello, people! It wouldn't be a damn movie, if Culkin didn't use the traps. Get a clue!
Here is the plot. The McCallister's are going to Paris for their Christmas vacation. At the time their having dinner which is pizza, Kevin McCallister (Culkin) is angry because his brother ate his cheese pizza. Kevin starts throwing a temper tantrum and tackles his brother and makes a huge mess in the kitchen. Soon, he gets into an argument with his mother. He tells her that he never wants to see her again. The next morning, his wish miraculously comes true. After a while, his family is on the plane to Paris. Unfortunately for them, they find out when they're on the plane. At the time being, there are crooks that want to rob the neighborhood. These two people are played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern. It turns out that they want to rob Kevin's house for the silver doughnut. But Kevin is there which the bandits don't know. Kevin will do all he can to stop the bandits and get arrested.
Home Alone is a great movie. Home Alone 2 is a worthy sequel, but doesn't live up to this one. Home Alone 3 is okay, but could of been a lot better. They didn't have to name it part of the Home Alone series though. I own the first two movie and there both great to watch during the holidays. Home Alone gets a 10/10.
