Part time alone

The third one - and the first one that tries to make sense of things and bring reality back. Like the kid calling the police - I know the most simple solution seem the most difficult to avoid when you try to be as convenient as possible. But even as this tries this out, it has technology to make those calls go nowhere and it still does only use the technology when it wants to.

Crazy to say the least - and the kid as good as the actor himself is, is not as charismatic as Culkin ... and I wasn't the biggest fan of Kevin anyway, but this everyone has to admit or rather see. More advanced traps and failings or whatever you want to call them ... though I reckon the people it hits are the most deserving ones yet. I have not seen part 4 & 5 yet, but do not hold your breath for me to do so soon. This had a very young Black Widow - sorry I mean Scarlett Johannson in it. Watching it, one wishes she would have been the main character instead ... the movie would have been better. No offense to the kid playing the main role instead.

Adequate!

I don't think the film is as bad as the rating suggests, but it does pale in comparison to the first two films, which are holiday classics to me! There were some bits I liked, but some bits where improvements would have been appreciated.

The positives are that Alex D Linz makes a cute and charming lead, though Macaulay Culkin is definitely better. The film does look lovely, and there is evidence of some detailed direction. And the parrot was awesome. Believe me, this film is much better than the vomitous Home Alone 4.

The negatives are that some of the violence, that was classic in the first two films, seemed to have been reduced to cartoon slapstick. Another problem was that I didn't recognise any of the characters, and the uneven script didn't allow them to develop properly. Also, I do miss the antics of the Wet Bandits, the new villains weren't as effective.

All in all, a perfectly adequate, but uneven film, that is much better than its abysmal follow up. 5/10 Bethany Cox

Not terrible, but Macaulay is gone

Four high-tech industrial spies are trying to smuggle out a top secret military microchip to North Korea. A mixup at airport security leaves Mrs. Hess with the microchip hidden in a remote control car. After Alex shovels Mrs. Hesses' driveway, she gives him the car as payment. The spies have tracked the chip to Alex's neighborhood, and faces off against Alex who is home sick with the chicken pox.

I like the cat and mouse game, but the premise is way too serious. It's not so kid friendly to start. But this is not a horrible sequel. The fact is the kid isn't Macaulay. And the movie doesn't have as much whimsy as the previous two. The bad guys are real bad guys, not the silly Wet Bandits.

For those of us who want to see Scarlett Johansson, she has a minor role as the sister. It's nothing special to write home about. She does have a few scenes.
