1.0 out of 5 stars Home Alone should have been left alone, May 30, 2008

Nuisance "the rebel" (Miami) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Home Alone 3 (DVD)

I'll admit that I loved the first two Home Alone movies. They had a certain charm to them given the silliness of the story. This third installment oozes with something else other than charm. Everything that was great about the first two HA movies is absent from this movie. Not to mention that the story is much different than the first two.

Plot: Some hi-tech crooks hide a microchip inside of a remote-controlled toy car. During their time in the airport, their luggage gets switched with the luggage of the crotchety middle-aged woman that lives next door to the Pruitt family. The crooks realize that their luggage has been swapped with the old woman and finds out where she lives. On arrival they meet up with the snotty scamp Alex who realizes something is wrong with them and plans to thwart them while his mother is away.

Opinion: After reading the plot, you already know that this has nothing to do with the MCcallister family. That is the least of its problems. What was fresh in the first two HA movies is now mundane. Every gag is the same: people get bonked upside the head with things and fall down. Alex D. Linz is about as bland as tofu. As a matter of fact, the whole cast is about as bland as tofu. The wisecracking parrot has more personality than these cardboard cutouts in this movie. The crooks made Harry and Marv look like geniuses. Did I forget to mention that this movie is lethally dull? Plus this movie is missing what made the first two great: Heart. This movie is emotionally distant like Marla Singer(Helena Bonham Carter's character in Fight Club). Nothing about this movie is redeemable. It's all routine. You've seen it all before done better. Home Alone 3 and 4 are classic examples of "milking the cow". If you love this "movie" you love these: BABY GENIUSES, SUPERBABIES: BABY GENIUSES 2, LOOK WHO'S TALKING NOW, ARE WE DONE YET, HONEY WE SHRUNK OURSELVES and PROBLEM CHILD 2.

4.0 out of 5 stars Well, at least this film had the right Idea., June 15, 2006

This review is from: Home Alone 3 (DVD)

This one is good, but not as good as the first two. I wish that the staring people in this were brought back for the fourth one. This movie had the right Ide because Macaulay Culkin was too old to play Kevin anymore, so they moved on to a different story. Recomended.

P.S. Stay away from the fourth.

1.0 out of 5 stars New "Kevin" has absolutely no presence, December 6, 2008

By 

Marcus T. Brody (Tampa Bay, FL) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Home Alone 3 (DVD)

In a movie, you need the main character to have kind of magnetic presence. The new "Kevin McCallister", played by Alex Linz, doesn't have it. Sure, the storyline isn't all that bad, but he simply couldn't handle the role. I'm not sure if I've ever seen a movie worse than this, to be fair. When you have a lead actor that can't handle a part and brings nothing to the table, you're in for a disastrous 90 min film. There's nothing more to say, other than, wow, very, very bad.
