"A Christmas and a childhood classic."
Ah, Home Alone. Any kid who grew up in the 90's has probably seen this classic at least 5 times. Who could forget Culkin's hilarious performance as Kevin, or the infamous booby traps that the Wet Bandits had to go through?

The story is simple enough. The McCallister family is spending their Christmas in France. The youngest, Kevin, hates his family for the way they treat him, especially his older brother, Buzz. After getting into a fight, Kevin wishes to never see them again.

In the morning, Kevin wakes up to find he is home alone. The family left for France, and due to a counting mistake, forgot Kevin. Now as the family tries to get back to the US, Kevin has the time of his life and eludes obstacles such as the downstairs furnace, the creepy neighbor next door, and the Wet Bandits, Harry and Marv.

What can I say? Even though it's a family film, I enjoy it even to this day. Culkin does great for a child actor, there's a lot of humor, some slapstick, and the booby traps are well thought of.

It might be a little late to watch it this Christmas, but even in the middle of July it's a great film to watch. Any 90's buff should pick this up.

"Another Childhood Favorite!!!"
Ever since I was a kid, I've loved this movie! Now that I'm 18, I still love it! After a fight with his smokin' hot mom, Kevin is accidentally left at home, alone! He gets groceries, washes clothes, gets into his brother's stuff, and lets a huge scary spider loose in the house. To make matters worse, two thieves named Harry and Marv want to rob the house. Kevin sets booby traps all around the house to stop them. If you love Christmas, and family comedies, you'll love HOME ALONE!!!

"Fun family holiday flick-transfer subpar"
This is a review of the Blu-Ray disc. Since Amazon does not specifically provide rating stars for PQ and AQ, I am writing this at the top, as some of the reviews here, were ported over from the SD.

PQ-3/5-sad to say, Fox has skimped again. There is significant noise and grain in this film, and the picture is murky. The film was tested on an upper end 42" Plasma and BD30K player. I've seen older movies look better than this. The sound was a 4/5. The poor quality of the transfer merits a rent, not a buy.

The film itself was clever given Kevin's ingenious use of toys and every-day household items to overcome the burglars. It's also endearing, as he is only 8, and already "grown up" in many ways (grocery shopping, discussion with older man in church, and his interactions with his family). I felt the first 3/4 of the movie was not very engaging, or particularly funny, unfortunately. The last 15 minutes were the most entertaining, and the arrival of the rest of the family were heartfelt. Overall a nice holiday themed movie, but nothing outstanding here.

"Home Alone (Family Fun Edition) "
The Movie gets 5 stars ...But the Picture isn't crisp enough for my taste I don't think they remastered it nor does it say anything about it on the box....I will keep it because there is know replace at this time except Blu-Ray and that might have same concerns.
