Chaotic and inventive at the same time

Rating: 8/10 (1 January 2020)

I had often heard people talking about this film, sometimes described as a bad one, sometimes described as a kind of must-see. So I watched it this year and am, actually, positively surprised or at least it wasn't as bad as I sometimes heard. Poor little Kevin is left alone at his home, his family have forgotten him on flight to Paris to celebrate Christmas. But while enjoying the being all alone, some shrewd burglars make his street unsafe...
Yes, it is sometimes chaotic and illogical and reminds, as some critics say, in cartoons that wouldn't work in a real film. Yet, Kevin acts like a creative and inventive boy to defend his family's house. It is funny and you should have seen it once.
