OMG! I do not think that I have seen a funnier film (apart from Home alone 2). This film is just fantastic and gets funnier the more I watch this. This whole film is crazy from start to finish and always ends up with the bad guys getting done over by a young boy. Kevin McCallister (Macauley Culkin) is accidently left at home by his parents when they travel to France for the Christmas Vacation. They are already halfway to France on a plane when they realise that they are missing something - but takes them a while to click on that they have actually left their son at home. (They first thought they had left their garage doors open). Harry and Marv (would ...  Read the complete review

Home Alone is almost like a symbol of my childhood but until yesterday I hadn't seen it for years. I forgot just how great of a film it is! This film was released in 1990 and was written and produced by John Hughes. It was directed by Chris Columbus who is also responsible for films such as Harry Potter 1 - 3 and Night At The Museum. The McCallister's are hectically trying to get ready for a trip to Paris for the next day. During all the stress, one of the younger sons, Kevin (McCaulay Culkin), gets into arguments with his siblings and parents causing him to wish he didn't have a family. The next morning, due to a power outing during the night, the family ...  Read the complete review

Christmas is nearly upon us once again and that means it is time to dust off the Christmas DVD collection! Ho Ho Ho! In my opinion, Home Alone is the most perfect Christmas film ever! If you're still not quite feeling the Christmas cheer, bang this in your DVD player and after 103 minutes of this classic you'll want it to be Christmas Eve, with only one more sleep until Santa has visited and brought you lots of presents and Christmas day is finally here, with all your family and lots of great food! The McCallister family are going to spend Christmas in Paris visiting family and on the eve of their flight there is a powercut and no ones alarm works ...  Read the complete review

When put up against movies of today Home alone is still a great movie and heres why Left alone when his family go to Paris, France, our central character Kevin (McCauly Caulkin) realises a plot is afoot to burgle the family home (the sort of house I would just love to have). He devises many ingenious ways of stopping the robbers taking anything. Meanwhile, his family, in sheer panic at leaving their vulnerable little 9 year-old alone, are trying to get back home. The two robbers, one is Joe Pesci, get more than they bargained for when Kevin devises contraptions to cause as much pain as possible...there is so much pain you can almost feel it. ...  Read the complete review

While I seem to be on theme of Christmas films this week, here is another Christmas film review for you. Home Alone is another of my favourites (yes I do have quite a few). This film was out in 1990 in the cinema and is a film I have been brought up watching from a very young age. I don't think I can remember a year without seeing this film. We used to have it on video but I bought it on DVD last year. Home Alone is a story based around a young boy called Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Caulkin). Kevin is the youngest of a big family at 8 years old and often gets fed up of trying to compete with all the other children. This Christmas his family are going on ...  Read the complete review
