Absolutely Fantastic

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

John Hughes disappoints in this one. This film is that of the most ridiculous, over-the-top I have ever seen (besides mega shark vs giant squid, that was abysmal).First of all, the traps in this movie would kill ya! No way did that bloke fall down 4 stories, landing on his back, to then walk away like nothing happened. No way did those two fellas jump into sub-zero waters and walk out like they just got out the shower or sum ting. The most ludicrous part of this movie was when the geezer with the budget roller skates did a front flip down some stairs. WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?!?!This film offended me. Overall I give it a 1 :)It was pretty funny though, watch it if you fancy some laughs just do not watch it with your kids!

Home alone 3 is the third film to the home alone franchise with a new kid played by Alex D.Linz. The movie is about 4 criminals who lose a top secret computer chip hidden in a toy remote control car in a airport when the luggage is mixed up and it is taken home by a old lady who gives the toy to a young boy Alex who finds out he has chicken pox and takes a few days off school,the 4 criminals find the chip but first haft to go threw a bunch of booby traps set up by Alex who is sure to save the chip and put the criminals away. Home alone 3 I really thought would be bad but I was so happy with this improvement,the movie received mixed reviews,a lot liked it but a lot hated it. Macaulay Culkin I think was going to return but turned down the role,the movie features lovable Alex D.Linz who is very funny and a good actor who stars in Max Keebles big move which is a awesome film,the film is from the director of scooby doo the movie which I really liked. Home alone 3 once again is a brilliant installment to the home alone series and hopefully the next film will be as good..it won't.

Home Alone 3 caught a bad rap because it has not connection at all with the previous movies with Macaulay Culkin. This should not have been called Home Alone 3, but something else. I wouldn't go so far as to calling it the best in the series, but I do stand by this having the best storyline. The general premise about a little kid being home alone and creating booby-traps to catch the bad guys is the exact point of the first two, but it's what's beneath the surface that is the best. A group of bad guys steal an Air Force computer chip and must deliver it to a North Korean terrorist organization. They hide it in a remote control car where it is unintentionally picked up by a retired lady headed to suburban Chicago. Hr taking the bag was unrealistic; in an airport, who doesn't check to see if they have their own bag? Everybody knows some luggage look alike! She gives the car to her 8-year-old neighbour, Alex (Dinz) who just came down with the chicken pox. The thieves get the whereabouts of the neighbourhood, but break into each house hoping to find the car. Alex is home alone and sees the thieves through his telescope and calls the police. Everybody thinks he's crying wolf, but Alex is determined to catch the thieves once and for all. The thieves want to search in the daytime because they know everybody is either at school or working. What if there's people like Alex sick home from school? Or retirees? Then the place not believing Alex is also a bit unrealistic. He notices odd things happening in the neighbourhood ontop of intruders. The thieves are obviously experts, so wouldn't the cops work to plant hidden cameras or something like that? When it goes to classic Home Alone, the traps and slapstick comedy is just as great (sometimes greater) than the first two. Sure there's some unrealistic traps, but the first two had them also. Maybe it is just because I am a 90s kid, but I don't get why this is hated. Alex is just as good a Kevin, the thieves are cool, the story is better than the others. Home Alone 4 and 5 are the bad ones. I mean reeeeaaally bad.

People complain that this movie is a disgrace to the original 2 'Home Alone' films, that it simply re-hashes their plots and antics, and while they do have a point, what most people fail to realize is that regardless of whether or not it is true to the first 2 films, it belongs on a list of "Movie Plots That Could Have Been Solved in Minutes." The whole plot hinges on 4 criminals getting their bag containing a top-secret device getting mixed-up at the airport with a bag belonging to a senior citizen who lives in the suburbs of Chicago across the street from the hero of the film. They trace the bag to the suburbs, and the movie goes from there.But, the plot of the movie could have been solved in minutes (to the advantage of the villains rather than the hero) had the criminals (or at least the woman criminal who held onto the bag) simply kept the wrong bag and approached the senior citizen who had their bag after landing in Chicago to simply exchange bags. The senior citizen would have wanted her bag rather than the criminals' bag (she later indicates that she is angry about having the wrong bad rather than the correct bag), and the plot would have been solved right there. The criminals would have gotten away and we never would have been introduced to the hero, but the plot would have been as simple as it could be.PROS: It has that late 1990s suburb feel to it, and the booby traps are slightly more realistic (as far as the criminals surviving them is concerned).
