DVD Reviews of Home Alone

DVD Review: Christmas Fun for all the Family
Summary: 5 Stars

I remember I loved this film back when it came out, and I was still relatively young. I don't think I've seen it since, and I must admit to being a bit sceptical when I popped it into the player. Still is good as gold, it turned out! Not sure how much "reviewing" is needed here; has anyone not seen this film? It is one of the biggest hits ever, and more importantly; it was made while the US was still a European nation, which the movie really shows. It is so old there's even a Jewish bad guy, not a blond European one! My oh my!

Even though his family is portrayed as somewhat dysfunctional and strange, it still is a wonderful loving film about the family and what is important in life. Little Kevin has a bit of a fight with his mom over him reacting to his supposed "black sheep" status in the extended family. He says he wishes his family was gone; which *surprise surprise* happens the next morning, when the family leave for France and incidentally forgets to bring little eight-year-old Kevin with them in the chaos (they overslept). It is Christmas, and there's been a lot of burglaries in the neighbourhood, and it turns out thieves are indeed on the prowl. Kevin arms up, though, and places traps throughout the entire house, using his imagination to great effect. All for good comical effect and on the side of it all is the story about a lonely proud old man which Kevin eventually befriends and gives some life-changing advice. Not often something brings tears to my eyes, but there are some wonderful scenes in this film, centring on family and religion; the most important issues in life.

5 stars and a film for all the family that is still as good as it was when it came out.
