5 out of 5 stars Why are a lot of people against this film?   September 11, 2007
  1 out of 3 found this review helpful

After I saw this film at the cinema, I actually enjoyed it. OK, it's not AS good as the first two, but at least it's still enjoyable. However, this is a million times better than the fourth, which I didn't enjoy very much.


1 out of 5 stars Didn't laugh once   October 31, 2006

Why did John Hughes do it? He should have stopped at 2. How he ever thought a Home Alone film would work without Culkin, Pesci and Stern i don't know. It just wasn't funny and he wasn't REALLY Home Alone. The whole point in the first two was he was completly alone and cut off from his family wheras here they were coming home each night. Only saw it once... never again i'm sticking to 1 and 2.


3 out of 5 stars Original and Fun   September 24, 2006

The third outing in the Home Alone franchise offers a completely new family, new child ("Alex") and a new scenario. It is surprisingly enjoyable family viewing. Here young Alex finds a computer chip and soon a gang of international criminals is on his trail - or is he on their trail ?. It is well put together and fun. We giggled all the way through, and our daughter loved it. If you have young children they will enjoy this. Look out for a young Scarlett Johanssen as Alex's sister.


5 out of 5 stars Take it on it own merit   December 22, 2005

Ok, it's years since I saw the original film, I don't think I ever saw version 2, so I watched this film with no particular expectations, but I have to say that I found it a really enjoyable ride. It's not, nor will ever be a life changing movie. It probably isn't as good as those that went before it, but that's not a reason to give it a bad review, I really think it still works as an enjoyable romp before christmas. Save the bad reviews for films like Forrest Gump - Now that was a stinker of a film!!


2 out of 5 stars Not overly dreadful   July 14, 2004

The first film of this franchise, although not without it's flaws - was an enjoyable family movie. And Home Alone 3? Well, there's some fun to be had but it's all been had before.

There's no Culkin of course ; the previous star of the movies has been replaced by Alex D Linz - not as bad as you may have been led to believe. He's a satisfactory if unremarkable child actor who's cruely forced to carry the film for much of it's runtime.

An element of originality is added in that, instead of fending off bargain basement crooks, our young hero must face-off against a gang of international terrorists. The formula sticks pretty much to the usual ; a gradual build-up of light comedy leading to a sadistic slapstick finale that redeems things somewhat.

If you ignore the numbering, and just compare these films without bias, it still leads to the conclusion that Part One is streets ahead of it's sequels. If you want a decent laugh ; you'd be best off sticking with that.

And just to correct the other reviewer ; Speilberg has NOTHING to do with any of these movies. Christopher Columbus directed the first two movies.
