Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Here's a perfect movie for kids, who never seem to tire of John Hughes's sure-fire slapstick formula. Working yet another variation on his mammoth 1990 hit, writer-producer Hughes (regarded by many as Hollywood's antichrist) strands a youngster in his own home with the chicken pox in this 1997 retelling. While his parents go to work, he sees a team of burglars invading the neighborhood houses; in fact, they're spies, looking for a toy containing a stolen microchip. The inevitability of the finale--one kid holding off four professionals with toys and garden tools--will do nothing to lessen the amusement of youngsters, who love to see the bad guys get creamed. Adults may pause at the sadistic nature of some of Hughes's pranks, but kids will eat up the image of one of their own outwitting all the adults. --Marshall Fine
Description
A band of international crooks has hidden a military computer chip inside a toy car, but an airport mix-up lands it in the hands of whiz-kid Alex Pruitt (Alex D. Linz) who's home alone with the chicken pox in a quiet Chicago suburb. When the criminals zero in on Alex's house with their high-tech gadgetry, madness and mayhem kick into high gear as the pint-sized hero defends himself against the bumbling bad guys -armed with an outrageous array of ambushes and booby traps!

Mean spirited and unfunny........2007-03-20
In the first 2 films, the kid was left alone by accident. In this one, it is deliberate. That's right, the mother leaves her small child home alone by choice. The kid is an evil genius type who has more toys than the Mythbusters. His traps are meant to maim or kill the so-called bad guys, who are so unbelievably stupid it is difficult to accept they would be smart enough to steal a computer chip. Speaking of the chip -- something like that would fail if it were handled by so many people; it has to be in an anti-static protective bag, not in a toy car. But most Hollywood types don't seem to know anything about computers. Or the range of a toy car's remote control. Or a TV remote control. Or how a small child could put barbells on a roof. Or move a 4x8 sheet of plywood...or.... In short, just about everything in this movie stretches credulity beyond even cartoon violence. This also proves that to pull off this concept you need a cast of people with talent. The original 2 films work only because of a good cast. It certainly isn't the writing. Left to the writing alone, this type of film just fails. It also leaves one with a sense of mean-spiritedness at the heart of the film. And that is because it is such an unnecessary sequel with ties to the originals in name only.
Best of Bunch So Far.......2007-02-02
Out of the first three that I have viewed, this is by far and away my vote for best. The lead actor is marvelous, so genuine and so expressive. The plot carries on the Home Alone theme: parents leaving young boy alone, burglars attack, boy's ingenuity foils them, siblings nasty to the nth.
Here, Home Alone goes high tech, on the burglars part and on the defender boy's as well. From outset, scene is set with defense part chip that gets mistakenly taken at airport security and ends up in young boy's remote car, which thus becomes center point in the plot.
The defensive measures this Alex takes up are what makes this one so good! From aid of talkin parrot to yarn wound electrified wire, this one caused great laughter.
Such great family viewing pleasure!
GO ALEX!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-01-25
Wow! The Booby Traps were even more severe and a lot better!! Although I really miss Harry and Marv
PROS-
-Booby Traps are better
-Number of criminals extend
BAD-
-Acting is half terrible
-This movie has a totally different cast
What I don't understand is the storyline. IT'S DIFFERENT!!!!!!
Our Christmas favorite, kids are funny........2007-01-10
This is our favorite movie for the holidays or when it is snowing and cold outside. This is the best of the Home alone movies. I like this kid better than the first kid. His acting is really good. I mean yo uknow that a kid cannot do some of the things that they have him do, but it is very funny to see what this kid does, some of the things that you see being done you cannot figure out what he is doing. This one does not involve the kid being left behind for the holiday, much more believable series of events.
Not a Real Sequel.......2007-01-07
I just don't understand why the movie producers could not have used Macaulay Culkin as an older (which he was by then) and a more mature Kevin McAllister.
By the time Home Alone 4 came out, Macaulay Culkin got older yet the protagonist remained the same---Kevin McAllister. (Is the protagonist to remain a small child all his life?)
But in this movie, none of the characters in the first two "Home Alone" films were even cast. It's a whole new film with a whole new cast of characters. So it's not even a sequel. The only things that are similar are the booby traps, though different criminals.
I suppose if you strictly like crime, intrigue and booby traps, then this film is for you.
But for those of you out there who have not seen this film yet, do not expect the family warmth and Christmas charm of the first two "Home Alones." They aren't there.
I must say, though, that the child actor in question is off to a good start; he does a terrific job. But I would say the only real comedians in this film are the parrot and Doris the rat, especially when they share a ride on a toy.
