Synopsis: It is Christmas Time and the McAllister family is preparing for a vacation in Paris, France. But, the youngest in the family named Kevin got into a scuffle with his older brother Buzz and was sent to his room which is on the third floor of his house. Then, the next morning, while the rest of the family were in a rush to make it to the airport on time, they completely forgot about Kevin who now has the house all to himself. Being home alone was fun for Kevin, having a pizza all to himself, jumping on his parents' bed and making a mess. Then, Kevin discovers about 2 burglars, Harry and Marv about to rob his house on Christmas eve. Kevin acts quickly by wiring his own house with makeshift booby traps to stop the burglars and to bring them to justice.

U.S. Rating: PG
Home Alone has become one of those classics that we all watch in every family reunion at Christmas time every single year. I had the chance to watch this movie just two days ago and even though I've watched this movie dozens of times, I never get tired of it. Macaulay Culkin will ever bee remembered as the little boy that was forgotten at home on Christmas Eve, no matter how old he might get. A great classic comedy for all ages with such a fresh and funny script.
What did I like from this movie?
1. I really enjoy all the smart tricks and things Kevin does to defend the house against the two burglars, when he asks for pizza and uses the tv scenes against the pizza delivery boy and when he goes to get some supplies at the supermarket
2. Such a great cast chosen for this movie
3. The end of the movie, plus the message was really enjoyable
What did I dislike from this movie?
1. Even though the sequels weren't that bad, this is one of those movies that didn't need a sequel (my personal opinion, since it's a classic)
I would rate this movie with a 4/5

Enjoy it!... Watch it!
Aw, I can't wait for this to come on at Christmas. It's always really fun to watch with a tin of chocolates or something. Though the older I get, the more I realise that it's horrible - I mean, they *leave* their child behind! :P
