The fact that this kid kept trying to call the police every time he saw the burglars AND called the military with the chip makes this kid kinda smarter than Kevin in my opinion.
YOU'RE SO RIGHT
@Ray Hopkins they mean the kid reacted in a far more intelligent manner than Kevin....Y'know: He called the police and the military when they seemed reasonably necessary. Kevin built traps and a death maze but Alex didn't do that until he *had* to unlike Kevin who went straight to assault and traps
And the funny thing is that Alex was 5 yrs old and Kevin was like what, 10? This little kid is gonna grow up to be the new Albert Einstein or Stephen Hawking
I thought the phone lines were out in the first one. It doesn't excuse him not calling in the second one, though.
@@bigbadbob7070 Kevin was supposed to be 8 in the first Home alone same age Alex was in 3
Home Alone 2 wasn't that great, but it had one thing that none of the others did:
Tim Curry.
peetza!
*waHA! waHA! waHA!*
Not Potato. So you saw that review too.
No, it's not possible! Archie Holt went back to the future!
+thebeav Percabeth Yes. And?
Fun fact: Roger Ebert thought this was better than Home Alone 1, Gene Siskel was so shocked, he almost fell out of his chair.
hunter mooney Ebert also panned Die Hard and the Thing, while positively reviewing Speed 2 and Anaconda. WTF Ebert!
@@HugoSoup57 the thing was overrated. It was basically just Among Us in Antarctica before Among Us was a thing.
@@Zerpderp0 so... it's a good film which is overrated? what?
@@ThaqtRamone I was being a sarcastic asshole
@@HugoSoup57 he was a BA critic
Fun fact: Home Alone 3 was Scarlett Johansson's first big role her acting career.
Tragic past
Kevin Quiroz umm no this movie is good
She was in North before this.
Maurice King seriously Scarlett Johansson is in this Movie
Her acting is still dull only reason she gets roles is that she's hot.
Fun Fact: This was Raja Gosnell's directorial debut. The same guy that did the Scooby-Doo and Smurfs movies. If only Doug knew what he'd be getting into later on...
1sam234 stfu scooby doo 2 is a masterpiece
Also yours mine and ours.
James Gunn should've directed the Scooby Doo movies
1sam234 Oh my God. 🤤
James Coppolino Well at least it's not as bad as the first one. Or the god-awful direct-to-DVD sequels.
As a child I did not realize how bizarre this movie was compared to the other two.
Is this the worst one? No. They made Home Alone 4 as well.
Don't forget the 5th!
@@aeonaf.6923 i kinda like holiday heist.
@@aeonaf.6923 4 was boring
@@cheneethompson5121 i respect your opinion but for me home 4 was just too much for me it brought back original characters without having none of the original cast then ignores continuity from home alone and 2&3 the. Then the movie tries to be part 2 when it says 4.
Laser Lens sorry but home alone 3 is good...at least Alex warmed his parents before creating the traps unlike Kevin, he didn’t even warn anyone! So he made the traps just for fun. Plus the overall score for home alone 3 is really good too
If I was a kid watching this back in the day, I would've sworn that I walked into the wrong theatre based on the opening.
Trust me. Watched that movie on the theater like 10-11 years ago, and I kinda thought it was the wrong movie.
NC: The worst Home Alone script ever.
Home Alone 4: Hold my beer.
Home Alone 5 no hold my cash grab
@@Lopez03Eduardo. home alone 5 is better than 4
5 at least had some unique traps and Malcolm McDowell
I’m biased for French Stewart and Malcom McDowell so 3 is the worst one imo
@@themysteriouscatperson9483 bias or not HA 4 and 5 were SHIT!!!
If he thinks this is the worst home alone movie then he hasn't seen 4 or 5 yet.
they continue it?.... 😶
They made home alone 4 and 5??
4 is an abomination 5 on the other hand has some good stuff Malcom McDowell as the villain mainly
Haven't seen HM5. HM4 is mainly goofy slapstick from what I recall. HM3 is just insulting to your intelligence.
@@mrcritical6751 THERE'S A FIVE!?
"What is this? Die Hard 5?"
Oh, you'll be glad it isn't.
+SpeedyEric1 "better"... heh...
SpeedyEric1 As a generic action film, yeah, but as a fifth installment to the Die Hard series... NOPE!
+SpeedyEric1 Well, yes, but that's just like picking the lesser of two evils. Die Hard 5 is still bad. Just not AS bad as this.
+SpeedyEric1 "Die Hard 5 is actually better than this."
No, sadly it isn't. Which is the entire Point.
SpeedyEric1
Granted.
Let me just tell you MY reasoning... We have seen three pretty awesome Die Hard Movies and one that was "meh"... Die Hard Five HAD the potential to be much better than what we got and it would not have taken much effort to avoid the handful of really blatantly DUMB plot points that soured up the movie for me.
Home Alone 3 has nowhere near the potential to be a vastly better movie, the first one was halfways unique, the second one made good use of the budget they had to go one step further / go bigger than the first one... but what was left in the plot and potential situation to explore it a third time? They did not even try to connect it to the McAllister family, or the place they live or anything "kevin" at all... HA3 was doomed to suck from the onset and never could have beena better film without being completely different. DIe Hard 5 would have easily had that chance. And that's why being disappointed with what we got hurt more with McClane's last big adventure and not with whatever chickpox boy's name was....
Wow. Friggin' save the world and all you get is a $14.99 race car. Wow.
Actually they did say in the movie that some government higher up or something was giving Alex a reward. The race car was just a gift from his dad while he was on a trip.
Alex only won because the bad guys are idiot's
Alex got a 6 figure sum from the government plus they repaired his house 👍
My brain just exploded........
@@AnaAcuraErica Whats a six figure sum?
The 90s were different. I went home after kindergarten and was alone a lot.
That’s a legit comment. I was growing up in Russia and I was alone a lot and I couldn’t really understand that “home alone” problem
So even in the 90s that was considered neglect , and also critic was a kid in the 80s and even he recognizes that Alex is too young to be left alone
HOLLYWOOD: Please combine Home Alone and Die Hard into one movie.
Please call the movie DIE ALONE.
Sounds like the title of my autobiography.
YES!!! YESSSSS! YEEEEASAASSSSS!!!!!!
@ Ty: Home Hard 2 - Home Harder
Isin't Predator is basically that?
King Spencer which one?
Home Alone 1: Amazing
Home Alone 2: Okay
Home Alone 3: Bad
Home Alone 4: Why
Home Alone 5: STOP
Home Alone 6: PLEASE STOP
+CoasterRebel there was a fifth and a sixth?!?!
***** Actually I may be wrong about a sixth, but I know there's a fifth. They're probably making a sixth though...
why is 2 just okay? i thought is just as good as the 1st one
+KANO FOCA It's because the story was WAY too close to the plot of the first one. It just made a few changes and called it a new movie. It's still not a bad movie though, I enjoyed it but I'd much rather watch the first one.
+CoasterRebel that's what i liked about it ... and i don't like rehashed movies but i like 1 and 2 the same
"What is this, Die Hard 5?" Please, this film is still more plausible than "A Good Day to Die Hard".
And it’s more enjoyable
I haven't seen die hard 5. I've only seen the first 4. I'm guessing it's awful.
Really bad like really really bad
Yep.
Spot on agree with that!
I’ve actually had a theory that Alex is Kevin’s cousin. Kate McCallister and Karen Pruitt are sisters.
Tres Griffin I like this head canon.
I kinda had this theory too. If only it explained his absence on the many family vacations, though.
Makes sense. Kate and Karen do look like the could be sisters.
Daniel Anderson Well, the vacations were centered around Peter’s side of the family (Uncle Frank and Uncle Rob are Peter’s brothers), not Kate’s. Alex would be a cousin on Kate’s side of the family.
I was thinking the same thing! Kevin taught his little cousin how to make some serious harmful traps. At the very least for the spies, Alex isn’t as sadistic as his cousin.
Funny enough, one of my new teachers actually said she went to college with the kid in this movie, who would later go on to be in Max Keeble's Big Move.
She said he was a dick.
I think that she might have spelled "kid" backwards... But hey, anything is possible, right?
Maybe she's right or maybe she was just jealous. Considering the stuff we've been hearing out of Hollywood involving child actors, she clearly dodged a bullet, and Alex D. Linz himself as well as I think he's been doing good after leaving film.
It's funny how the villains in this were spies and Alex's sister ended up being Black Widow.
Plot twist they were the ones who came back to kidnap her and put her in the black widow programme
The film was originally supposed to center around Kevin McCallister as a teenager, but Macaulay Culkin had stopped acting by the time production could start. My guess is Hughes only moved forward with this shit instead because he was still contractually obligated by Fox to make another Home Alone film despite what I just mentioned above.
Could he have called the film something other than Home Alone? That could have helped.
@@rmn070 I feel like it would get hate for being a Home Alone clone.
@@ItsLelingTime Mmmm… for the most part, I don’t think anyone would see it as a Home Alone clone (excluding the scene with the traps, obviously).
I actually kind of liked Home Alone 3.
Home Alone 4, I've NEVER seen, and I already know its bad.
Its bad really god awful even the fifth one
I don't even want to bother with that abomination. Never seen it myself and judging by the cast when I saw the previews? Appalling to the Home Alone legacy.
@yeetkidgetz 3 is actually kinda awesome as it’s a kid mercilessly torturing international terrorists which is a fucking hilarious idea
I could tell it was bad when it came out just by looking at the cover on the DVD case. Still have never seen it.
What about babies day out?
"'Home Alone 2 sucked..."
**Looks for Katana Blades** Are you serious,Doug?!?!?! I made a tradition of watching both Home Alone 1 and 2 on December.Those are classics! >:[
This one?...Eh. *shrugs*
IKR HA2 is awesome how dare Doug and Critic not like it if Channel Awesome respond to this conversation u better say why
+eating raw faces is my least favorite thing to do. Good god those are garbage. lol
So edgy
+StriderRyu7 Same here Home Alone 2 is just as enjoyable as Home Alone.
+CrystalMoonStar yup I agree
Fun Fact: Apparently the writers were working on HA3 where Kevin was a teenager but was scrapped Macaulay Culkin refused to do this film, simply because he'd grown tired of the role, and felt that there was nothing else he could've done with it. When Macaulay Culkin declined to reprise his role as Kevin for the third outing, John Hughes briefly considered writing the screenplay with Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern reprising their roles as burglars Harry and Marv, respectively, who target Kevin's cousin Fuller (Macaulay's real-life brother Kieran), and Fuller would be the main character, with Gerry Bamman and Terrie Snell reprising their roles and Fuller's parents Frank and Leslie, respectively, who go on vacation and leave Fuller home alone, to defend himself against Marv and Harry. The idea was scrapped, as Pesci and Stern refused to reprise their roles, and wanted to pursue other projects, and Kieran felt he couldn't follow in his brother's footsteps as the lead. Hughes then wrote an entirely different screenplay with no characters from the first two films. At one stage, the script was considered being filmed as a television pilot, but in the end, the studio decided to go ahead and make it as a feature film. The reverse would later happen with The Wonderful World of Disney: Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House (2002), which was originally intended to be a stand-alone television movie, but was restructured during production, to serve as a pilot for a television series that ultimately never went ahead.
Oh no, Kevin's home alone, and he's only 17
Where is the fun?
Honestly I quite liked Home Alone 2...
+batman88891 same
+The Green Dragon 53 that makes 3 of us
Me too
me too...
+batman88891 same, everything after is crap though
I grew up with this one.
So it has a special place in my heart.
Same here. Believe it or not Bur I had never heard there was two other home alone’s before this one or this was a 3rd movie until like years later after I graduated from elementary school.
Same here, I honestly loved this movie growing up
Right I'm not with this political culture ripping this movie to shreds . This shit was good ONLY thing I think is dumb is it wasn't a Disney movie
This movie is actually really really good compared to Home Alone 4 and Home Alone: The Holiday Heist
I’d watch Holiday Heist any day over Home Alone 4
Yeah but that’s like saying Stalin is better because he well almost wasn’t Hitler
Holiday Heist was better than Taking Back the House because it wasn't a pilot for a G-rated tv show.
@@joeymalaria4702 yeah home alone 4 is Hitler and home alone 5 is Stalin
Home alone 4 is very entertaining, imo!
I honestly liked this one. Surprised you didn't mention the cheesy line in the beginning where the lead spy is all "Pack your bags, we're going to Cheeeeeecaaaaago."
In the winter?
It's funny that this movie turned out to be better than the actual Die Hard 5.
"Home Alone 2 is bad because it's too much like the first one." "Home Alone 3 is bad because it's nothing like the first one."
Wait wut?
And home alone 2 had trump!
I love 1,2 and 3. Plus Alex at least call the cops first. And he only made traps after nothing else worked. He try calling the cops more than once.
People's only reason for hating 3 ia because there is no kevin. That's it. HA3 is basically the best and original story.
He's so mad that the parents are leaving their child, like that doesn't happen. You can ell they're leaving him cause they know alex is smart enough to be left alone.
Bish HA 1 n 2 they left their son when going to a trip.
He is also mad about the realism of the movie, bish Kevin did traps that defy physics too.
This review is too nit picky
I love home alone 2
@@christianearlsabijon eh trained spies hunting a 7 yr old for some secret agent spy chip and losing isn't the best story imo. The new actor is no where near as good but then again the old one could've been bad too
Home alone 1 was original and at least kinda made sense that these adults are losing seeing as they are untrained and pretty stupid. Im probably being too harsh considering its a kids movie.
think this is bad?

@@mrcritical6751 Yeah lol. His traps were actually so horrible.
The girl got disfigured.
Man I love this movie.
The only good critique I saw in this movie was how the parents left him alone repeatedly. But even then, they need to work, I've been left alone plenty. Maybe not at 8, but this kid is way smarter than any of us were at 8.
OK, you know how there's a rumour that Kevin from Home Alone is Jigsaw from the Saw series? No, THIS KID is Jigsaw
Nah, this kid is the Collector.
Both of you LOL 😂😂😂😂😂 these are underated comments.

He really is younger John Kramer
"That shitty Miracle on 34th Street" remake!
Insert Mara Wilson revenge joke here ;)
For some reason, I own DVD copies of both the original and the remake of Miracle on 34th Street.
I’ve harbored a crush on her since I was 2 years old! She’s the only redeeming factor of that remake!
Really? No love for Richard Attenborough?
ackbarfan5556 him too!
So let me get this straight.
A kid having nothing to do with the first 2 movies aquires military grade technology, so some international criminals working for a north korean terrorist organization break into the home only to be greeted by a wireless security network, a parrot trained to answer phone calls, fart jokes, holes in the interior of the house, lawnmower massacres, mousetraps, and more, all of which was set up and arranged by an 8 year old. If Home Alone 4 is worse, COUNT ME OUT! I AIN'T DOING THAT!
You take movies a little too seriously. Having said that though, Home Alone 4 is..... an abomination that shouldn't be witnessed by anyone, lest they want to gouge their eyes out.
Elsen Worker You've never seen Home Alone 5 have you? It is by far the worst one I have ever seen. Personally I think that 5 makes the 4th and 3rd look like comedy genius!
Oh how I wish I had never seen the fourth one. Even as a kid it was just awful.
Yuki Kitsune wait, there's a fifth Home Alone movie?, i've only heard about the first four ones (but i only saw the first two)
@@nucleonegro9762 Home Alone 6… THAT IS ABOMINATION THERE!!! It’s trash AF! The reboot that killed Home Alone!
12:19 Even for a slapstick family film, there’s no way they would tell her this if they were secret agents.
One of the problems with this film is that the villains being outsmarted by a child doesn’t work nearly as well here. Because:
1. Harry and Marv were two. There’s four of the here.
2. Harry and Marv were petty thieves and them being dumb is set up early on. These four are international criminals who have alluded many law enforcement agencies around the world, including the FBI, for years. And they’re depicted as very competent and prepared for most of the film. So then suddenly turning into bumbling idiots, doesn’t work.
Especially the second part. It’s like Hans Gruber being outsmarted by Dennis the Menace. It just loses ALL credibility as a threatening villain.
it’s like looney tunes humor or muppets humor
He has Scarlet Johansen as his sister? That lucky brat.
Yup. He has the Black Widow as her sister ;)

I'm curious about what Doug found particularly bad about Home Alone 2, maybe he should do a Nostalgia Critic review on it?
+Alisha Dee It was basically the same movie. Kind of redundant.
+sabresman31 But is that automatically bad, maybe...but I liked it
+sabresman31 I found it entertaining as instead of being home he tricks the hotel and this time does all he wants in a 5 star hotel. Pretty funny setup
+magnusm4 Agreed. Personally I've always liked 2 more than .
he hated it because Trump was in it
I love Home Alone 3. I rewatched it countless times growing up. It's just fun, fresh & harmless. Sure, now it's a guilty pleasure as is Batman & Robin. They're just fun & entertaining.
Home Alone 3 is alright as a stand alone imo
Little known fact: Home alone is a prequel to McGyver
Jakub Mike I would've said Saw.
Joel Baldwin Saw AND The Good Son
And Jigsaw
@@cjwrench07 Kevin becoming a killer indeed
Home alone 2 isn’t bad at all

Holy shit I never got 30 likes thanks guess also I do find NC entertaining I mean I FUCKING,LOVE THIS GUY but I’m just giving out my opinion that home alone
2 isn’t all bad and it’s way better than this disappointment.
MR JOHN Yea I liked it.
MR JOHN I agree. I liked it too
A bit off topic but about the whole "what normal parent would leave their child home alone so many times"...
In Russia kids of all ages stay home alone almost every day. In Russia kids play on the streets without adult supervision every day. In Russia kids never get in trouble by doing such terrifying things.
Hilarious, isn't it! :D
You're talking about homeless kids right?
Kristina Joy's Hamsters so is this where i put the "in mother russia" joke ?
America isn't Russia both completely different ideologues
WTF that sounds crazy. Even with the buddy system out here kids get kidnapped
So... In real life, the Home Alone movies would take place in Russia?
Home Alone 2 did not suck!
At some parts it’s better than the first!
Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Remember, this is just NC’s opinion. And this is your opinion.
Thank you
This was early NC so he was more over-the-top than he is now. Don't believe me? Watch his review on home alone 2, he's much more calm.
@@lukeayres9312 I loved it! I rewatch it every year
Home alone 2 wasn’t as deep as the first. But the humor and slap stick I think was better. I know i laughed way more with the second film.
The male spy with the long hair is the 'Marv' of this film.
Home Alone (1990) = THE BEST HANDS DOWN
Home Alone 2 (1992) = The same plot as the original but made great by Tim Curry
Home Alone 3 (1997) = It's just not the same without Kevin!
Home Alone 4 (2002) = Nope. Nope. Nope. Yuck.
Home Alone 5 (2012) = (montage of Peter, Stewie, Chris and Brian Griffin vomiting profusely)
Home Sweet Home Alone (2021) = WHYYYYYYYYYYY?!? GOOOOOOD WHYYYYYYYYYY?!???
Great assessment
I don’t hate 3 nor do I dislike I do like I think it’s pretty decent and the rest I don’t care for
@@superstan3290 I didn't outright hate number 3... It's just that, to me, Kevin had more charm as the protagonist.
Home Alone 3 is good, just that the original actors was just growing up.
Home alone 3 was good. Obs not the original but as a kid I enjoyed it. They got creative with the storyline and also the pranks on the bad guys were fun
I hope I'm not the only one who gets the "Rear Window" reference.

Can you review Home Alone 4 next?
Yes it does actually exist.
dragonlizard7 Oh god even as a kid I knew that movie was absolute trash
Leh, I kind of liked Home Alone 3. I couldn’t get through Home Alone 4, though. I was five minutes in and I turned it off
Homealone 1: great
Homealone 2: good
Homealone 3: bad
Homealone 4: horrible
Homealone 5: “commits suicide”
Because nothing will ever be as good as the Holiday Hiest
4 is way worse than 5, at least 5 had Malcolm McDowell 4 has no legs to stand on
Reginald Sainte what?
Home alone 4 was a good movie
I'm watching it right now
12:13 "maybe I shouldn't have left him alone 18 times". I don't know why but that line from Doug never fails to crack me up
wait...Home Alone 2 sucks?? I don't think so sir
It sucks because it's pretty much just a rehash of the 1st film and kevins performance was terrible, but he even admits that some scenes are worth the watch.
Cody Martinez what about 22 jump street
I loved when Kevin tortured the immortal bandits again in the second one
@@r3trogaming726 or how about the fast and furious franchise?
To be fair, the Nostalgia Critic thinks most films suck. Or at least that's the impression he gives everyone. Maybe he should stick to reading books.
I used to really dislike him “Nostalgia Critic”, just from watching him on James’s channel “Cinemassacre”. But, ever since I’ve been watching THIS channel. I’m really becoming fond of him. Don’t know why, but that’s how it goes, I guess. Anyway, I know this is an old video, but I just watched your recent Home Alone 2 review. Regardless, keep it up, man! Really lovin’ these videos. 10/10 #NostalgiaCritic
By the way, I actually really enjoyed Home Alone 3. For some odd reason, I enjoy it more then Home Alone 1 AND Home Alone 2. Weird, huh. Maybe because I’ve watched this one most as a kid. #HomeAlone3
Fun fact: the part where the lawnmower falls on Jernigan was based on a part from the novelization of "Home Alone 2" where the same thing happens to Marv in a nightmare.
“Worst Home Alone Script ever”, how about you try on Home Alone 4 for size
Home Alone 3 is at least watchable as a dumb flick you can turn your brain off at, Home Alone 4 on the other hand rips out your brain and brutally beats it to death
@@mrcritical6751 and then home alove 5 comes with a can of gasoline and burns it to ash
At least Home Alone 3 tried being a like a home alone film unlike 4
AceO Blade 5 isn’t as bad as 4
I will not hear a bad word against Home Alone 5, it may be mediocre at best but at least it had traps unlike 4 which was mostly just Kevin MockAllister walking around his house and being mean to his poor butler
You are hilarious Critic. I watch your movie reviews everyday after school. My favorite is your review of Son of The Mask. I am so glad my friend introduced me to ur TH-cam channel. I love you Nostalgia Critic DON'T STOP BEING AWESOME!!!!

I loved this movie as a kid, and like most movies you watched as a kid you realise how stupid they are when you grow up. :P
+Jack Angel I still laugh when that trunk comes crashing through the window and hits them. Can I at least give them props for filling it with books and not bricks?
My parents really like this movie.
The electric chair scene get me every time 😂
Joakim Ängehult you can still like them, though.
I use to die laughing along with every other student at my elementary schools daycare center every time those jackasses kept getting trampled by the booby traps the kid set up. Back then I was just able to enjoy movies and NOT have to worry about all of the naysayers and the film budget crap.
I like traps in home alone 3 including the rat in the crotch my mom was laughing so hard when she watched it. I laughed at all the traps!
It makes sense that the parents leave him alone. He is home sick, they still have jobs and bills to pay. Guess he never been home alone sick.
sandywolfr26
Child Services would snatch him away. He is not legally old enough to be left home alone so much
@@LoveLove-rj8nc That's not that much. the first two days were an hour each, the third day two hours at the most, and the fourth day there was a babysitter who was across the street and just running late. An 8 year old being left alone for an hour or two is not an unreasonable amount of time. And if you really want to talk about child services, then how come Kevin wasn't taken away after being left all alone for two and a half days. Simple. The MST3K Mantra, "It's just a show; I should really just relax."
@@LoveLove-rj8nc in my state he is 🤷♀️
@Cody Kear In HA1, the parents do call the police to check on Kevin. But the police can’t find him. That’s why child-protective services don’t come. In HA3 they have EVERY REASON to take the child away! They leave their sick, really young child alone in their house despite the fact that they know that Alex kept calling the police. Any good parent would at least work from home so they can keep an eye on them.
@@johnselig8598 wow you must have had overprotective parents. Actually a sick kid safe at home isn't really in danger. he has chicken pox. Remember doctor only said no scratching and to separate him so he doesn't spread it. They know he can make a sandwich if he is hungry and since he never call the cops before, they didn't think he would done it. He never pull a serious prank like calling cops so they thought he be fine at home. and after the last time, they got a babysitter watching him. and you still think CPS need to take him away? And how would they work at home? one is in meetings and forgot what the mom do but they need her at her workplace. Good parent? no you mean any helicoptor parent who don't trust their kid at all and think he needs to be watch all the time. When I was alex age, I was left sick all the time. Hell my mom let me go to the mall alone. makes sure i got money for the bus and sent me on the way. As long as I came home when the streetlights came on she could leave me alone. Kids at age 8 and up do need to learn how to be independent. Otherwise we have sheltered kids who don't know how to do anything once they become an adult.
i liked home alone 2.
Me too, this one though is horrible

Speaking of which, I DARE you to review Home Alone 4.
+SpeedyEric1 Channel Awesome and everyone associated with them threw out the idea of "reviewer dibs" LOOOOOOOOOONG ago, my friend. I mean, look at half of the reviews he's done in the past year, at least one other reviewer who surrounds and/or worked with Doug reviewed them already.
DurradonXylles That would explain why I can't watch even 1/10 of his Shameful Sequel videos on channelawesome and only a select few on here. (Kiara the Brave, Braver, BabyGeniuses 3 & 4, and apparently the ChannelAwesome anniversary movies).
+Lance Clearman Home Alone 5?!? HAHAHA!! You're funny! I know you're joking about 5.... right?
TazarZero Go to Malcolm McDowell's IMDb page. No, seriously, do it. You'll find something right around 2012.
+TazarZero Yeah there is a Home Alone 5 and the used every gamer stereotype they could find in HA5
Alex “am just protecting myself and the house”in is mind “ I must kill “
A corpse can't disappear just when the cops show.
He is dealing with armed adult terrorists after all
"Doris! Fetch me my violin!"
Fetches violin
Home alone : AMAZING!!!
Home alone 2: yay
Home alone 3: WTH!!!!!
Home alone 4: JUST FLIPPING STOP!!!!
Home alone (2012): 🤬😡🧐😡🧐😡😠🤬😠😡😠🤬😠😡😠🤬🧐😡😠😩
Home alone 3 was a decent movie. I liked it. And for the record, Home alone 2 is a great movie
I love the nostalgia critic, but Home alone 2 was actually a pretty good movie
11:18 - This could be a scene from Saw!
Fun fact: this almost made this rated R
This feels more like a mockbuster rip-off than a sequel
NO-Shit, it just is like an awful knockoff of Home Alone but this failed horribly!
Home Alone 2 does have some shitty parts but its got some hilarious moments smooching with cliff cracks me up and Daniel stern getting hit with the bricks is funny as hell
Daniel Stern getting hit with anything is comedic gold.
A cameo by (Calm voice changes to shriek) WHO THE BIBBIDY BOBBIDY WHO NOW!?
Nikolas Solfronk escuz me but I don't know awho this "trump" fella is?
Didn't they make at least 2 more Home Alone films after this one?
+Ice Climber There are five Home Alone movies in all.
Yup, I like all home alone films, 4 has Joe pechi.
***** Five abominations? Uh, no. The first two movies were fucking greats.
Sebastian Nicholson Only two had Joe Pesci. The first two.
***** Yes.
How does Home Alone 2 suck!? It was amazing
This is my personal favourite Home Alone movie as a kid, because I found it more funny and epic. Still is to this day :3
agree...this was one my favorite movies as a kid.....actually had a lot of funny jokes in it too...i think a lot of people hated it because they called it home alone 3 without kevin and didn't give the movie a chance
I totally loved this movie, actually way more than 1 & 2
The funniest part of this movie is when they refer to North Korea as a credible threat.
+Brandon Roberts An overconfident nation at it's finest.
Anton K They tried to start it but there country is pathetically small.
+tim5fl Well....technically speaking we are in WWIII but because of IS and not North Korea. xD More than 5 countries have declared war on them.
A.C. Dragonlover yeah, Just not actually admitted though
OH DAYUM
In my opinion; every film after HA2 (AKA every film after Kevin) is trash.
Home alone 4 is supposed to be kevin
+Atlas56 Lol ya. It was supposed to be though. It sucked
It should be every installment that doesn't have Culkin sucks.
There is Kevin in Home Alone 4.........
home alone 4 was just ugh
12:30 - The guzzling whiskey gets me every time.
The boy in this movie, Alex Linz, was voice of Arnold in two episodes of Hey Arnold, April Fools Day and The Journal.
Yes and he was the kid in the Max Keeble's Big Move movie
He was also the voice of young Tarzan in "Tarzan".
5:21 Just the evidence I need . . .
#DogLivesMatter
If you guys find any pictures of the Police shooting Chewbacca, send it to me, I need something for #WookieLivesMatter
ATF disagrees about that
Fun fact: That lawnmower scene was actually a cut scene from HOME ALONE 2: LOST IN NEW YORK.
Damn. Imaging how horrifying that would be.
Home Alone 3 is actually my favorite of them all. The bad guys are hilarious.
Nizama You are with me.
@@alexsmyth17
I may not be a fan of this film, but if you two can find some good things about it, I can respect that.
I don’t really like this film but I respect your opinion
Bruh, I love 1, 2, and 3 x) Those are grrreat.
For me, I love this third movie and the first two before it, the most, equally. I have all three of them on DVD and I watched them every Christmas since I bought them a few years ago. ^.^
Baby's day out was a god damn masterpiece
No, Baby’s Day Out is terrible. It’s a lame ripoff of Home Alone.
More popular than star wars in India
@@HugoSoup57 No, honestly, i like it a lot.
@@avanishdutta2658 same, Babys Day Out was my childhood movie while growing up.
This was my Grandma’s favorite comedy
Okay, now I know it might sound stupid, maybe even more stupid than Home Alone 4, but what if the plot to Home Alone three was this:
Harry and Marv have finally been released from prison and are trying to go straight. Then they accidentally end up in possession of the computer chip we see stolen at the beginning of the film. After eventually realizing how valuable it is, Harry and Marv go back to their roots and try to find a way to sell it, but are chased by the masterminds and end up way over their heads. After a couple days of running they go to someone they know might be able to help. The person is not Keven, but for some reason this person cannot help them so they decide to go to Keven who at this point is in college. At first Keven wants to go to the police but after being forced at gunpoint he "agrees" to help Harry and Marv who take him to an abandoned building to set up some traps. After the masterminds track them to the building they trigger the traps. Some traps are successful, others are not, and Keven makes a remark or two about Harry and Marv's intelligence when asked why one of the traps failed. Eventually Keven is able to get a phone from the only fully defeated mastermind and call the police who save Keven, Marv, and Harry at the last second. Harry and Marv are forced to give the computer chip to the police, pretending that was their intention all along, and the two of them and Keven return to their normal lives.
Now, I'm not saying this idea would necessarily result in a good movie, it would still be a shameless cash grab, but it could be better than Home Alone three's actual plot.
Indeed
That sounds EPIC.
Think of all the inside jokes and threats! Oh I love it.
The lack of Harry and Marv is the single biggest nail in HA3's coffin IMO. Those two were so much fun to see put through all those traps.
Caleb Fullmer I would actually thoroughly enjoy this. This isn’t really stupid, just a little out there, but sometimes that’s what a sequel needs to be to NOT be a cash grab. Sometimes it needs to take risks.
The mousetrap segment was freaking hilarious!😅🤣😂
BEST SEGMENT EVER
Every time I watched Home Alone 3, and came to when Alex somehow got a television feed of what the camcorder was recording as it was taped to his remote control truck, I couldn't help but ask one specific question; why didn't Alex hook up the broadcast feed through a VCR and record everything from his base of operations? It seems that would have been smarter than risking having the tape taken; which ended up happening. Probably because the story plot required Alex to not be able to prove that there were burglars breaking into other people's homes. In other words; there is no good reason.
This is why Scarlet Johanson got into espionage.
7:18 - LOL Critic sounds like Toad from Super Mario Super Show. XD
And the award for Best Performance by a Animal in a Supporting Role of an Atrocious Sequel is...Pete the Parrot in Home Alone 3!
12:59
Burton: *h o w?*
Christopher Walken: *i d o n ‘ t k n o w*
home alone 2 was good
None of the films are actually that good.
But the second one is painful as hell
In my opinion it was meh it could’ve been better
The Indiana Jones Show agreed
🔚🔚🔚🔚🔚🔚
So was three.
Home Alone 2 wasn't that bad
In my opinion it was better than 1
I love the second one.
It was better than 1
@@derpyplayground I gotta go 1 but it’s so close they’re both great lol
Home Alone 2 and Dennis the Menace were fine!
Boss Man Home Alone 2's saving grace was the glorious visage of Donald
Definitely agree with you. Those were movies I watched countless times as a kid, and grew to like them despite its imperfections. I barely cared for the copy/paste story back then, or the flimsy relationship with the pigeon lady. Now I look at it, and it's still the movie I remembered and liked back then, even with the imperfections stick out like a sore thumb.
Dennis the Menace was pretty funny and good. I don't get why it gets so much hate.
12:44 Alex wins by doing absolutely nothing.
I'm gonna miss Doug's hair. Hell I miss it already.
2:16
I can't say as a kid, my cousins and I would walk like this when we went out together as a joke
The movie might be bad, be the rat is cute (I love rodents)
Ironically, Hughes doesn't warrant all the blame here. This was directed by Raja Gosnell- or as NC described him, "the human epitome of the phrase 'no refunds'."
I liked this movie even though it didn’t compared to the originals. Annnnd i loved flubber!!
Scarlett Johansson is in this. At least one reason to watch? lol
+Lance Clearman this isn't her first movie. She would've been fine w/o Home Alone 3
Remember that time Scarlett Johansson was fighting off an invasion by giant spiders?
Awesome foreshadowing.
Make that two reasons
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
exactly. she had already done "manny & lo" which got a best actress nomination at the indie spirit awards and was then replaced natalie portman for "the horse whisperer". plus, if sofia coppola hadn't seen "manny & lo", she wouldn't have casted scar-jo 3:16 in LiT.
I guess, but since she’s like 11 in this movie it might not be the most worthwhile reason
You’re trippin, this movies a classic
A classic piece of shit
“How?” Christopher Walken accent
Compared to Home Alone 4 and 5 this one is a masterpiece.
