I think I saw this movie in theaters. All I really remember was - even at seven years old - how annoying and moronic it was. I guess I was never a fan of ridiculous, painfully repetitive slapstick humor.
Also: what was the deal with this review being available for me to watch on Sunday, anyways?
Also also: Ack! Neil Flynn plays one of the cops.

04.14.2010 - 03:50 | HG13SUNDAY?! We could watch it when he put up his last video!
-
04.14.2010 - 07:04 | some-other-guy-with-glassesI literally watched it right after Flubber last week. Maybe if he does another Top 11 Fuckups list, this could make it (along with End Of Days "9+9+9=21" lol)

04.13.2010 - 20:48 | archonambroseusNow here's one movie that I'm glad they didn't get the original cast back for. A 17-year-old Macaulay Culkin would have been almost as disturbing as "Hey Mark, don't fuck with me." :X
"We'll take it!"
"MY CAREER IS OVER!"
:D

I loved the whole John Hughes writing the script gag throughout the review. My favorite part has to be the Rear window reference, I thought that scene looked familiar
Even though this was another one of those movies I liked as a kid, I do see that it doesn't even follow the whole Home Alone story so that's a hint to it's crappiness.
P.S. you missed a great "I was frozen today!" gag

You made a lot of great jokes with this one. That kid is just way too smart and some of the John moments were great. However, this is really one of my favorite childhood movies and even to this day. I love the slapstick, how the little kid is able to take out these spies, and love the traps. They are so creative and crazy. Makes you wonder how a kid is able to do that.
The only problem with the review is that you kept looking at this like a John Hughes movie instead of judging by its own mertits and not what the director did in the past. Most of the movies you mentioned you disliked, but I grew up on them and I like them all. Of course, this is your opinion and I respect it, but I think you should have just judge the movies by themselves without comparing them to his past works. By the way, I loved that dog freezing when the cops said freeze. Still makes me chuckle.
Anyways, an alright review overall, but there were plenty of things you seemed to miss that would have been good joke moments, like most of the times when the parrot was talking.
HOWEVER! There is something you need to address. While you dislike this movie, it was still a Home Alone movie in some sense. Now the fourth movie... is worse and is truly more horrendous. Only 3 traps and... you just need to see it and you'll understand why its worst.

04.13.2010 - 23:04 | leon101I never saw Home Alone 3, but I did see Home Alone 4, and thought it was actually pretty decent. But number one kicks the shit out of them all.
The lawnmower trap in this one made me laugh, that guy should have died! lol!
-
04.23.2010 - 10:53 | SriseruI agree. Home Alone 4 is THE WORST movie I've ever seen in my life.
-
04.13.2010 - 20:33 | That Guy With The BrainFucking hilarious Doug. Keep up the good work.

04.18.2010 - 17:02 | NymphonomiconMaybe two and three, but the original was a masterpiece... sorta.
-
04.13.2010 - 20:40 | Alvmar0122I remember i saw this movie when it came out and it was funny for me for some parts. Now i must admit most of it was stupid. The traps were cool but yet, a 5 year old kid can't make them like that in a day.
The parents ARE stupid. Maybe the father can be undestandable because his wokr involves a lot of traveling, but the mother.... gee...
Still, try to think to which people this movie was adressed. For kids nowadays thins kind of things can be more entertaining. Even if it is a silly movie, and written by Hughes, i think at some level it can be likeable for some kids.
Still, you make me laugh as always critic :P

Nice Critic. I like the the Rocky joke, that one killed me. I remember gagging while watching this movie. I couldn't even watch the whole thing. It just never competed with the other home alone movies because obviously no original cast and the fact that this one was so watered down in humor and plot and character etc. God awful movie!

Are you retarded, or something?
1. He reviews nostalgic movies, which we would likely have watched when we were kids.
2. The Nostalgia Chick did a two part review of Showgirls. Very recently.

04.13.2010 - 20:49 | technicolorfantasiesNow, I actually like Home Alone 2, but the third was torture. I really like the John Hughes jokes and the Rear Window one. Great review!

Honestly, I loved this movie as a kid. Now? ...well, it's okay. But this review is still hilarious as all hell. B)
While I heard there actually WAS a Neverending Story III, there was [b]definitely[/b] no Home Alone 4. Nope. It was a trilogy. Only three movies. It doesn't exist. :dry:
(P.S, the link below does not exist either)

04.14.2010 - 00:18 | darthsaberThere is in fact a Home Alone 4. It's called Home Alone Taking Back the House. Look it up.
-
That's not true, the link is real, I checked. Also, you can find it on VHS. SO, Yes there is a Home Alone 4!

04.13.2010 - 20:55 | mrwunderboyI just want to say that I went to middle school with Alex Linz, the star of Home Alone 3. You think the character is a little p.o.s.? Alex Linz is a little bitch. Love your reviews, and I shudder to think that a home alone movie was this bad.

Hilarious yet again! :D Loved the John Hughes bits. Those traps were the worst! I remember watching this for fun during the Christmas season when it was on TV. I spent the entire latter part of the film bitching about how lucky Alex was that the crooks happen to step in that exact place, or happen to trip that exact wire while standing in that exact step or happen to sit down in that exact chair. Kid was either psychic or he rigged the house for every single possibe thing that bad guys could do to get at him.

04.13.2010 - 20:56 | ScreamingSoulcatcheryeah, this movie is very bad. But, i will admit that home alone 2 was actually pretty good. Nowhere as good as the orignal but i thought it was still a success. Plus, its probably the only decent movie role that Rob Scheider has ever been in.
Did John Hughes write home alone 4?

04.14.2010 - 12:38 | GraylordThere is indeed a home alone 4. It was so horrible that the entire world denied it's existance, it's a movie so horrible, it's a thing of legends.
