The strange slapstick turn that the silly third act takes is an odd choice which remarkably doesn't stunt the film's growth but is still an odd departure from the relatively down-to-earth proceedings that precede it. It's only because it acts as a natural extension to the expert character development already done, that it slots in so successfully to end 'Home Alone (1990)' on an uproarious if (strangely) slightly sadistic note which represents the hero's transformation from naïvely vulnerable to cunningly independent. The layered screenplay puts everything in its perfectly imperfect place during the impeccable set-up, allowing for the forgetting of a child to become wholly believable and entirely empathetic, and the wonderfully ostentatious performances place everything in a state of heightened reality ripe for rib-tickling laughter and heart-warming sentiment. A true Christmas classic for any season. 8/10

'Home Alone' is about a boy, living in a big house together with quite a view family. It's almost Christmas and the family is preparing to go on a holiday to France! Everyone is busy picking his clothes. The next morning they are leaving to go to the airport. In all hustle and bustle, they forgot Kevin. He's home alone now... Two thieves are making plans to break into the house, where Kevin is still spending his holiday. Is Kevin too clever for the two thieves?This film is absolutely my all-time favorite Christmas story. The main characters and places were chosen well and everything is fitting great. There are very much funny moments in the film and the pace is perfect, nor too fast neither too slow. I watch this movie every year with Christmas and I'm still not losing my focus while watching it. The film creates a nice Christmas feeling. Maybe it's not the best plot, but it's hilarious and I recommend you to watch it with the whole family.Compared to the other 'Home Alone' films, I think part one and two are the best. After part two the cast changed and that made it for me less well.
