Merry Xmas You Filthy Animals

Rating: 9/10 (29 December 2019)

This has got to be one of the best Christmas movies ever made. The story is simple yet unique. The acting is not academy award worthy, but Macaulay Cullkin has just enough charisma to carry the film, and of course Joe Pesci is great. Then you add John Williams score, and the whole thing gets elevated to another level. It has aged a little, but it is still enjoyable to watch today. If you're looking for a movie to put you in the holiday spirit, look no further than Home Alone.
The sequel is pretty good too. A lot of rehashing, but it's still a good companion piece.
