Reviews

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Mehdi Hoffman There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
SnoopyStyle It's the first Christmas since Kevin McCallister's parents separated. He lives with his mother Kate (Clare Carey) and two siblings. His father Peter (Jason Beghe) plans to marry his rich girlfriend Natalie (Joanna Going) and wants the kids to spend time with her. Kevin refuses at first. After continued abuse by his brother, Kevin decides to sneak away to his father. Prescott (Erick Avari) is the butler and Molly (Barbara Babcock) is the maid. The mansion is high tech. Marv Merchants (French Stewart) has dropped his Wet Bandits partner. With his wife Vera (Missi Pyle), they plan to kidnap a visiting Prince. Kevin fights them off again and again but nobody believes him.The McCallisters seem to have lost a bunch of the kids. The new Kevin has the required cuteness and a bit of mischief. Having the parents separated puts a damper on any fun in the movie. The reunion is fully expected. It has too many moments trying to be serious. The tone is all wrong. Stewart and Pyle try their best to be wacky. It is stupid but not in a fun way. Even a simple thing like set design is weak. Natalie is supposed to be rich but the decor looks cheap. This is a sad continuation of a failing franchise.

I saw this over a year ago, and I've forgotten most of it. The only thing I really remember about it was how excruciatingly atrocious it was. I can't believe the audacity they had to try to make this a continuation of the first two movies? Home Alone is one of my favorite movies of all time! This movie tried to defecate all over the first one. Why on earth did they need to bring the character of Kevin back? He's iconic! Mike Weinberg tries, but he's no match for Culkin. Even Marv is brought back with a different actor. There are no laughs, no entertainment, just headaches. If you have a heart, please don't make your kids watch this. DUD
jeffreybai18 Are you guys crazy? On drugs? You joking? So your telling me you all hate this movie? Are you out of your mind? This movie is awesome. Hello? You kidding me right? Look I agree with all of you that home alone 1 and 2 is better. But home alone 3 and 4 is also good. So is home alone 5. Are you all crazy? I think you all need to re watch it. I really don't think this is so horrible. You joking? Are you crazy? Look home alone 4 is not horrible at all. Even though not that great, its still good. So if you never watched it, should you watch it? Oh yeah definitely. You don't have to like it, but its so worth watching. I would rather watch this movie 1 million times than getting a million dollars. I would even watch it way more that a million times if i could. Look I am not lying, its actually really good. Can't believe all you fools, that on the first page, that you all said it was bad.
slimer8489 As a person who grew up watching the Home Alone movies (mainly the first two, since we had them on VHS. I didn't hear about the third until I was 7 or 8), I can say that this movie is dumb... But it's on such a level of fail, that it's fun to watch and make fun of. French Stewart's acting is over-the-top; Kevin looks nothing like he did in Home Alone 1 and 2; Buzz's age is wrong; only two of Kevin's four siblings are present here; the house looks nothing like it did in the first two.... And the opening... Oh God, the opening. That's not a Home Alone opening scene, that's the intro to the Home Alone reality show! All of these screw-ups are just so stupid, that there's no choice but to sit there and laugh at it.
