Home Alone 3 (DVD)

If it wasn't a Home Alone film it would be okay but, dislike him you may, there is no substitute for McCauly Caulkin's cheeky little face and the avid persistance of Joe Pesci. The kid left alone theme wears a little bit thin but the children like it. Personally, I find there is something endearing about Home Alone 1 and 11 but, sorry, this film just does nothing for me. I doubt I would ever want to watch Home Alone 4 should they ever make one. ...  Read the complete review

When I asked to watch a Christmas film, I thought "yes! Home Alone 2!" I love the scenes in New York. My partner had other ideas. Home Alone 3 is apparently much more festive (they don't mention Christmas), much funnier (I think not) and much shorter than HA1 and HA2 (I'll give him that, it saved me 20 mins of my life). It wasn't as bad as I'm making out, but you can't make a home alone film without Maculey Culkin - he IS Home Alone. The kid in this was by a great little actor, he was great throughout, but I felt they tried to make him like Kevin from HA1&2 but called him Alex. The mean brother and sister (a mini Scarlett Johanssen) ...  Read the complete review

The Plot: The U.S Air Force has a new secret weapon - and he's only eight-years old! From comedy legend John Hughes comes the hilarious, action-packed hit that's "lots of fun for the entire family" A band of international crooks has hidden a military computer chip inside a toy car, but an airport mix-up lands it in the hands of whiz-kid Alex Pruitt who's home alone with the chicken pox in a quiet Chicago suburb. When the criminals zero in on Alex's house with their high-tech gadgetry, madness and mayhem kick into high gear as the pint-sized hero defends himself against the bumbling bad guys - armed with an outrageous ...  Read the complete review

I loved watching the first two Home Alone films when i was younger so i decided to watch the third film when i noticed a few days ago that it was showing on Sky Anytime. The film is called Home Alone 3 and came to our screens in 1997. If you have never heard of it before, it is a family comedy film. The total running time is 102 minutes and it was written and produced by John Hughes. It has a good and varied cast including Alex D Linz, David Thornton, Haviland Morris and Scarlett Johansson. I was a bit disappointed that Macauley Culkin wasnt in this film as the lead like he had been in the first two Home Alone films. The story centres ...  Read the complete review

I had my doubts when I first saw Home Alone 3, first it had been about 5 years since the last home alone had been released, and second it did not have any of the original cast. I thought it would probably be a cheap knock off to make more money.But I found out quickly that I was wrong and that it was the best one yet. The reason I like this is the characters are a lot better. The parents and the rest of the family aren't complete idiots like Kevin’s, come on you have to be pretty stupid parents to leave your kid at home on a family vacation. And Kevin just had two bumbling burglars to smite, While Alex has four villains to smack down and ...  Read the complete review
