This may sound stupid, but after I watched Home Alone I was scared to be in my house without my parents. Granted, that was when I was 6 years old, but something about Home Alone has resonated with me for the last 8 years. From the hilarious and violent scenes of Kevin torturing the house bandits to the simple fear of being left behind, this is my favorite Christmas movie (though I do also love Elf and A Christmas Story) but Home Alone simply has the norms of Christmas that relate directly to me. Now, this is a review, and if you haven’t seen Home Alone then this review is for you. For the rest of us reading, let’s simply look back to our favorite moments from this movie. The plot of this movie is when Kevin McCallister and his family are going to Paris; however, the McCallisters mistakenly leave for the airport without Kevin. As a result, he awakens to an empty house. Kevin becomes excited as his wish came true, well, until he realizes that two con men plan to rob him that very night. This movie is a blast because it not only introduces iconic lines and jokes but also teaches the important lesson of appreciating your family, making this movie a fit for all ages. In the end, I’m going to give Home Alone an A. Thanks for reading and stay tuned for my next review on National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation on Monday. As always, have a wonderful day.
