Every Home Alone Is Worse Than The Last

the run times keep getting shorter and the ratings keep getting lower if I walked in on this I would think I was in the wrong theater this one is a weird weird movie Home Alone is one of those Christmas movie series that is loved by many in the early '90s everyone fell in love with mcau culan even if no one knew how to spell his name which is why in 1998 when they introduced a new kid everyone hated him what do you mean mcau culin isn't an immortal child what do you mean he outgrew his

role and now has a beautiful adorable family with Brenda Song so today I'm setting out to figure out one thing did the Home Alone movies actually get worse actually before that did you know that they made more than like one or two or are we all just blinded by Nostalgia they made two with mcau Caan and then four more with different kids the most recent being 2021 we need a w Pam a win oh brother this guy stinks I mean judging by how identical they made all the movie posters it worries me that they're going

to try too hard to cash out on that homealone Nostalgia and just completely fail and fall flat on its face I feel like doing this sets up your movie for failure and harsh comparisons even if the movie isn't that bad on its own I'm going to summarize the movies some but don't worry this isn't Snopes we're going to actually talk about the movies too we've got a lot to cover so let's jump in [Music] Home Alone one is your classic vanilla Home Alone also I'm kind of going for like that '90s Mom Vibe with the

with the hair so I just wanted that to be known really Kevin mallister is one of the 14 kids or something of this Rich family in Chicago you don't need to know any of them except Kevin's brother Buzz don't you know how to knock flemwad and they're all going to France for Christmas Joe peshi plays one of the villains here and he's checking out all the houses in the neighborhood pretending to be a cop checking on the homes but he's really just looking for houses to Rob while they're gone and their parents are nowhere to

be seen all kids no parents probably a fancy orphanage Joe pes's perfect in this role also off the bat everyone is mean to Kevin the dope was whining about a suitcase what am I supposed to do shake his hand and say congratulations you're an idiot I wouldn't let you sleep in my room if you growing on my ass you're what the french Callen and when he lashes out he's the one who gets punished look what you did you little jerk he yells at his mom that everyone treats him so poorly and that he never wants

to see any of them again and his mom basically says be careful what you wish for there's a power outage overnight so the alarm clocks never go off so everyone's now late for the flight shuttles in the kid from across the street comes over to be annoying and messes up the head count and they leave to France without Kevin I love this scene where Kevin gets up and goes downstairs it being particularly quiet turning on and off the TV again to then be like Mom Kevin believes he made his family disappear and just does whatever

he wants made my family disappear and this stuff sets up what he's going to use to mess with the burglar later like the BB gun and the Playboy magazine that he looks at and throws behind him no clothes in anybody sickening Marvin Harry our main villains try to break in cuz they think no one's home goofiness ensues you know how it goes why the H did you take your shoes off why the hell you dress like a chicken meanwhile in France Kevin's mom is trying to fly back home and the rest of the family is

in Paris and one of the kids goes we're here riding in this apartment riding in this apartment riding in this apartment this comment would have sparked discussions on Twitter and Tik Tok in 1990 they'd have you believing that the mallister family actually deserved to get robbed in a three-minute Tik Tok about how their family wealth is actually traced back to exploitation of the working class but then I can make another Tik Tok about how Kevin's mom is actually a tradwife but then someone stitches a reply explaining how the Home Alone novelization actually explains further that

Kevin's mom actually has a job working as a fashion designer which plays into the traditional Barbie esque roles of the house because of course she has to still be the main participator in the the mothering of the household I don't know what I'm saying anyway eventually Kevin catches the bad guys they go to jail it's it's a fun movie it's a good time I don't have many complaints about this movie it's not a bad one I know this rating is going to spark disgust discussions in the comments but my personal rating for Home Alone one

is going to be a tier it's not the best Christmas movie in my opinion I'm sorry but it's still a good time it's your classic one you're guaranteed to be in for a good time but if fear not because it just it gets interesting as I cozied up to watch Home Alone 2 I made some cookies lit a candle and slipped on something a little more comfortable a different pair of bomba socks cuz I was already wearing some this holiday season prise your loved ones or even yourself with premium Comfort focused socks that actually last

adventure that I always really liked this time the family's going to Florida for Christmas and what gets everyone mad at Kevin this time is Buzz bullying him and gets eruptive laughter pack it up Buzz it's not that funny so Kevin pushes down the entire Children's Choir yada yada he as he was going to some place cool for Christmas like New York and then she says well you got your wish last year maybe you'll get it again this year Kevin was was cooking with this one again he was not wrong this is two for two Buzz

was just being an like Kevin's a good kid that just gets picked on and no one believes them which we can't say for some of the future movies in this franchise I power goes out alarm clock not work everyone Rush this time they make sure Kevin's in the damn car Kevin has his dad's bag to look for batteries for his audio recorder they get lost he follows the wrong dad once you learn that Home Alone 1 and two and the first two Harry Potter movies were directed by the same guy and allhe head music by

John Williams you start to see so many similarities and how it's shot and like the general Vibe also low key the first two Harry Potter movies were Christmas movies too Chris Columbus can only make Christmas movies he can't help it Kevin gets on the wrong plane he blasts his headphones not hearing the destination and boom baby we're in New York yeah my family in Florida and I'm in New York Kevin finds himself at the palace hotel and look there's my favorite convicted F I mean president the hotelier are on to Kevin but they're creeps this

dude immediately notices a child and hangs up the phone to Target him like I I never thought so deeply about how creepy that is overall this movie is really fun I find that a lot of the comedy hits better for me in this movie than it does in the first one not here come on and Kevin actually does a lot of the fun stuff a kid would do in this scenario Two Scoops are two make it three I'm not driving there's just more villains in this one too the hotel years are trying to catch him

cuz eventually they find out that the credit card got marked as stolen that he used to check into the hotel his parents at airport security tracked the credit card logically and then the wet bandits from the last movie escaped from jail and are now the sticky Bandits thinking they can score bigger in New York instead of just house robberies smell it yeah you know what that is fish it's Freedom Harry and Marv Target this toy store to Rob because they're going to be carrying the most cash on Christmas Eve and won't deposit it until after

Christmas but Kevin's also at this toy store find out they're actually donating all of the money from today to the children's how my ey to the Children's Hospital down the street he gets these SE cute turtle does for being a sweet kid and donating money to the Children's Hospital and this is important for later and you give the other one to a very special person but now the stakes are higher because when they run into each other now the sticky Bandits want to kill Kevin because of all the trouble he caused him last time and

got him in jail and stuff Marv reveals their big plan to rob the toy store big chase scene ensues and this is a great chase scene with all the villains' committed credit card fraud if you really think about it the hotel guys are probably just trying to catch him to return him to his parents but the way the movie frames them is so creepy like this guy immediately laying eyes on him before even knowing anything and find out everything you can about that young fellow to deal with the hotel guys this iconic scene with the

movie fake out plays out Merry Christmas you fil the animal Kevin meets the don't judge a book by its cover character which is the pigeon lady in Central Park oh yeah last movie it was his next door neighbor who was I call him the salt guy he just looked kind of scary and misjudged him and then they had a nice chat at church and then Kevin got motivated to catch the the villains so in this one the pigeon lady kind of fills that role Kevin sees the children's hospital and decides he's going to stop the

sticky Bandits and this time since he doesn't have a house his uncle Rob has traveled for Christmas and his place is under construction and the only knows he lives there because he had his dad's phone book and he booby traps that house and lurs them there after triggering the toy store alarm and snapping a photo evidence of them and of course we get all the wackiness some of these stunts are actually insane like after hitting Marv in the face with five different breaks in a row he gets electrocuted by Kevin in the most brutal way

he should have died well that's just part of the Home Alone Universe the pigeon lady just like the salt guy comes to save Kevin when it all seems over and the bandits get caught Kevin reunites with his mom at the biggest Christmas tree in the city because his mom knew he would be there everyone spends Christmas in New York cuz Florida wasn't that fun anyway Kevin gives his other turtle dove to his new friend in a really heartwarming end and that's the movie I just feel like Home Alone 2 took everything that was awesome about

Home Alone 1 and then made it even better I think they really expanded upon the characters the cast even if it hit some similar jokes I still thought they were really funny Home Alone one was really heartwarming but Home Alone 2 really upped the the silly and I really like that s tier I'll be taking no questions now we just watched the end of Home Alone 2 where Kevin's giving the other turtle dove to this lady and it's really sweet so the dichotomy of opening Home Alone 3 and it opens on Hong Kong what is

going on and how does this relate to some kid back in the States being home alone for Christmas if I walked in on this I would think I was in the wrong theater so China is doing some shady deals to get these Advanced ass microchips from the US Air Force or something and they're trying to smuggle it to America I guess in this RC car wrong upon rewatching they went to California to get the microchip and they were trying to smuggle it back to Hong Kong I guess in my defense they explained this in the

first 2 minutes of the movie and then never talk about it again and now you see what's going to happen the bags get Switched at the airport so now our main villains have to try to get it back from this kid they couldn't find the swapped bag at the airport so they somehow deduce that it's in Chicago because that's the next plane that's leaving I guess so we're we're we're going to Chicago now this movie put Matrix villains in Home Alone I don't know when did when did The Matrix come out 1999 oh this came

out one year before the matx tricks came out did they know they somehow find the street they live on from asking a random old guy and decide to break into every house on the street to find the toy car Alex is our new kid this time and has the chickenpox he's also barely Home Alone he's like home alone for 6 hours a day during business hours only but he keeps calling the police because he sees the bad guys breaking into his neighbor houses but they keep leaving before the cops get there so he's got to

catch them himself he figures out the pattern of where they're going to break in next so he tapes a video recorder to the top of the RC car to catch them in the ACT them chasing just the toy car goes on for a very long time I paused after a while to take a break from the movie to go play Minecraft and I realized I wasn't even halfway through the movie so if you were a kid that really liked RC cars this movie is awesome for you so we're supposed to believe that this fetus with

chickenpox goes against four Matrix villains that have gadgets and know how to do backflips and at the end of the movie when they get caught the FBI even says that they've been trying to catch this guy for 7 years but he's so good he keeps slipping away seven years have been after this guy either the government is is seriously inefficient or this kid is smarter either way that the it's the former I think what takes me out of this movie in particular is just that the other scenarios in Home Alone were somewhat realistic sure the

stunts are absolutely ridiculous but the scenarios make sense I think where Home Alone 1 and two were made for kids and adults to enjoy Home Alone 3 felt like it was just mostly made for kids if that makes sense which doesn't make it inherently bad that's just the vibe I got the magic of Home Alone one and two where that it was a kid's dream to be home alone when their parents were annoying them or in New York for Christmas with infinite money and then beating up stupid villains who want to break into your house

in particular or steal from a children's store SL Children's Hospital the motivation made sense even the villains with the kid had so like onscreen chemistry no one is envying a kid with chickenpox protecting a US Government microchip being talked down to condescendingly by the cops like what even is this why didn't Alex just break the chip you bend any of those pins and it's unusable it's immediately useless to the villains they have no reason to go chase you now also there's absolutely no reason for these dudes to be creeping around the neighborhood in various disguises

if they're just going to break into the houses also where are they even from there's one American woman an American dude some scary guy with an accent and another guy I think they're all just kind of forgettable characters that are written to be more stoic like Matrix bad guys and that sets up some funny comedy in contrast to their personalities but it just doesn't hit for me we get to know Marvin Harry's personalities as kind of these scuffed up failed villains who are just bad at their jobs like they're pretty like lowlevel burglars it's at

least more believable in this universe than four villains who are working with North Korean terrorists yep that's right when the FBI finally gets a call from Alex who found the microchip in the toy car and called the Chicago division of the US uh Air Force the FBI shows up at their school and explains that Alex is in danger like right now and instead of hurrying to go oh Scarlett Johansson oh yeah Scarlet Johansson's here she's she plays the sister shuts the door on them and forces them to explain in more detail what's going on like

this isn't an urgent situation and that's when he explains that these guys are working with North Korean terrorist top secret electronic device stolen from a defense department contractor by a group of international criminals working for a North Korean terrorist organization so why were they doing a deal in Hong Kong China who are these guys where are they from what are their eth ethnicities why are they work it why what's what is going on overall home alone but he struggles to actually be home alone is still a fun movie it's still enjoyable and the physical comedy

is still banging you get the typical electrocution scenes the goop in the paint can scenes and there's this one scene where the guy pulls down a dummy doll and it triggers a snowblower to come tumbling down on him further continuing the trend of stunts that should have brutally mutilated someone but instead he got a nice haircut this should should have killed him holy there's a rat that climbs up in his [Music] [Applause] pants a little flat but nice Alex throwing away the real gun is pretty funny I don't know why but so far they're obsessed

with giving these kids fake guns but then there are scenes that don't really make sense here like when Alex lurs them out of the house with the chip recognize this get the new iPhone 16 Pro on us these guys jump off the roof into a trampoline that's been placed over a frozen pool and these guys literally stay in the pool for the rest of the movie they don't even try to get out it's like well I guess we're just here now and then this lady sits in the laundry shoot without looking and falls down who

does that also they could have all just taken the stairs also who doesn't look before they sit down overall the story I thought was a bit weak but if you just let it take you away it's pretty fun we do get the satisfaction of everyone knowing that Alex caught the bad guys that we actually don't get in the first two movies despite my criticisms I'm giving this one a strong be sorry I had to light a candle cuz it's it's about to get pretty stinky the run times keep getting shorter and the ratings keep getting

lower Home Alone 4 is 1 hour and 24 minutes long it's like a TV special I'd seen the first three as a kid and this one didn't even come out that much later I was very much still a kid in 2002 but from here on I haven't seen these home Alon before I'm sure a lot of you didn't even know they made this many more this one is a weird weird movie the entire family is named after the original family we have Kevin Buzz Kate and Peter mallister and Megan so I go throughout the entire

movie wondering if this is the same universe or if it's supposed to be the same family with different actors so in this universe Kevin's parents are divorced and Kevin's dad says to his mom that as soon as the divorce papers are finalized he's going to marry this other girl and it's been like 8 months total since they decided to get divorced but when our divorce is final I'm going to marry her and then immediately after that asks to take the kids for Christmas you want the kids for Christmas just a couple of days to go

spend Christmas at his new girlfriend's house and the next day he calls her to check up on her and she's freaking sobbing and he has the nerve to ask you okay no youing idiot she's not okay yeah she's not okay like my name is Gerard Way got black eyeliner running down my face my name's Kevin in this universe it is not a phase wait my name's Kevin in this Multiverse I'm in a new phase bars all the kids say no to spending Christmas with Dad until bu bullies the out of Kevin in a not funny

way like this is just brutally mean so Kevin yells at his mom that he wishes he was an only child in a scene that feels really forced I'm not giving this movie any Grace with the comparisons because they're literally asking for it by naming the entire family the same and I'm realizing throughout the movie I think they're trying to play this off as the same family but in this scene equivalent in Home Alone one Kevin feels like he's being ganged up on by his family and then he lashes out out when it's not actually his

fault here it just feels forced for motivation I hate buzz and I never want to be stuck home alone with them as long as I live so Kevin gets sent up to his room and decides he's going to go be an only child at his dad's and new girlfriends his dad's new girlfriend is extremely rich and it was at this scene that I noticed that the acting was poor on the verge of signing two of the biggest clients in Chicago that's because you're the best publicist in the world doors closed have I remembered thank you

for telling everyone that okay so here's where I really started losing my mind they introduce Marv from Home Alone one in two but this time with his new girlfriend instead of Harry and they know that they're going to host the royal family here for Christmas at their house and their plan is to kidnap the prince for ransom so when Marvin's girlfriend break in to scope the place out they see Kevin and they recognize each other because this is supposed to be the same universe you hello Mar back to the acting they tried way too hard

to mimic the performances of Kevin and Mar and stuff from the original movie including the writing of Kevin and it just doesn't deliver the same because this isn't the same kid I'm 8 years old you think I'd be here alone I don't think so I'm 9 years old watch lot of TV that script and that dialogue worked really well for mcau Hulan it worked well for him it just it doesn't work here and Marv pisses me off with this he's like clearly trying to copy the same mannerisms shut up you little I'm going to kill

him Kevin blasts Marv with the shower and causes severe water damage to the house and keeps messing things up but they set up the girlfriend as the villain cuz she's mad that Kevin keeps destroying her property but she's all like I'll make sure you never see your dad again if you keep messing things up he wants you in his life and I think that's admirable but if you want him in your life you better not cross me and the dad is convinced that Kevin is set out to ruin his new relationship and his mom is

sobbing at home dude this this movie's depressing as then we're starkly reminded that the year is 2002 jingle jingle we have the Butler and the maid here and Kevin hasn't been home alone the entire movie actually now that I think about it he wasn't really home alone in the second one was he he was in New York but at least he was alone we're four movies deep into the franchise and in most of them he's not even home alone The Twist is that the maid is the Inside Man and is Marv's Mom hey Mom and

they were co- conspiring to kidnap the prince together and that's how they had the inside information and blah blah blah and Kevin was misjudging the butler who was supposed to be the Don't Judge Me by their book cover character the physical comedy of the house booby traps were extremely weak he barely does anything but play with the house remote it's like a Smart House the butler saves Kevin in the end just like the salt guy and the pigeon lady they catch the bad guys everyone gets arrested we're going to kidnap the prince the butler quits

cuz he hated his job I resign resign Kevin's dad decides that he wants to be back with his family when the whole time I was here all I did was miss my family and the royal family gets there and says they want to spend Christmas with the mcallisters instead would your family like to spend Christmas with our family that sounds cool it's so random that sounds cool so the new girlfriend loses literally everything just because she's like a little greedy and kind of unlikable and didn't care for Kevin as much as his own parents did

so all the villains were extremely weak the character growth throughout the story felt unnatural and they changed within a snap second like there were no hints or threads leading up to any changes it was just super depressing in a not heartwarming way I mean this makes sense D tier Home Alone 5 the or Home Alone colon the Holiday Heist 10year Gap 2012 at this point I Was preparing to be a hater I mean we've been on a downward trajectory and at first this movie was kind of doing that thing where they're like oh oh kids

and their video games but they kind of won me over as it went along I mean this did score one point higher than the last movie on IMDb so no weird Universe stuff here this kid's name is Finn and they're moving into a house that everyone finds super creepy except the parents and me even the villains think this house is creepy a creepy old house you just showed me a $2 million property and you're trying to convince me that it's old and decrepit and Haun is this house haunted your house is haunted that's why the

last people moved out so the villains in this one think that this house has a rare painting that was stolen from a museum and the main bad guy wants it back because it's actually a family heirloom and that's his family in the painting they were going to steal it before anyone moves in but obviously they're too late and decide to wait until no one's home to strike the video game kid tropes in this start to feel like what someone's mom thinks playing video games is like I was about to Dem Captain overkill's armored base well

I'm sure they can be demolished tomorrow now post grenades how does he always do that okay off but overall the acting is much better the story is much better and actually makes sense the villains have personalities and are a bit more memorable the movie takes time to show the villains interacting with each other which makes this universe feel more real and less random like North Korean Chinese American terrorists Finn is scared because he thinks that there's ghosts in the house because everyone's telling him the house is haunted so he unknowingly setting traps for the burglars

Vin's parents go to a work Christmas party and leave the kids at home because everyone was fighting and she takes his controller away so he can't play video games while they're gone and he does a bunch of stuff that doesn't involve gaming but then eventually sits back down to play games this time you're going down they acted like this was the only controller in the house but like he just had another one I'm so confused there are a few things in this movie that are a little whack like that like this scene the effect on

this scene where the burglar break into the garage is so [Music] crazy but Finn's getting new batteries for his controller and one of them rolls under the door into the scary basement he convinces his sister to help him get it he shows her the Secret Door he found and then they find the secret room where the painting is she scares the out of him he runs out and then she accidentally gets herself trapped in the vault so he's actually home alone with his sister which I'm going to count as actually being home alone congrats there's

this subplot with this college Kitty plays games with online that I actually really like all the characters in this one are cooky and silly and this made me realize that hope alone doesn't have to be realistic it's a kids movie but it just has to make sense and be believable the kid that lives across the street from them is actually the goat and they have some funny scenes together I can't right now my sister was sh in the basement and I have to buy supplies to break her out oh cool see you later I can't

WR right now a team of art thieves are planning on assault on my new house and I'm the only one who can defend it oh cool see you later Finn goes to the store and realizes that the noises and shadows he's been hearing and seeing aren't actually ghosts it was these burglar checking out the house also all he can afford is string to help get his sister out of the Vault so he had to get creative with the physical comedy Antics which there wasn't a ton of but I don't think it really needed a super

long physical comedy sequence cuz they spent the run time on other plot lines and showing other things like the college kid getting swatted because of a misunderstanding this this scene is insane on your feet on your feet where the kid where are the kids you got it all wrong I just play video games I think the biggest thing this movie suffered from was being in the Home Alone franchise I think if they did a different movie poster and just called it the Holiday Heist or something could have garnered a better score from people but anything

being compared to such a beloved film is just going to get ripped apart I thought a good amount of the jokes surprisingly landed for me the story lines weaved in nicely it made sense of course the bad guys get caught in the end and Finn makes friends and is less afraid of everything but an act of imagination is actually pretty useful when you're not using it to scare yourself I actually enjoyed this one more than I thought I would I don't know if it's just because I watched Home Alone 4 right before this but I

think this is a fun unserious movie to put on for the holidays I think you should watch it maybe I don't know solid beat here it's all been leading up to this Home Alone six or should I say home sweet home alone let me just be up front here and say that every character in this movie was unlikable the kid is a little they wrote him to be extremely rude to people from the start for no reason uh they're not mine um they belonged to my mother sure they did also he's British which doesn't have

anything to do with with that it doesn't have anything to do with that of course but it was pretty shocking at the time I think I was so used to seeing American families that this really threw me for a loop I I wrote it down in my notes he meets the main villains at their open house and he is so rude to them but J is super unlikable back at him no McDonald's for you on the way home you can't promise a kid McDonald's will not deliver oh what a MC shame oh brother this guy

just to explain how much I don't like this kid there's a scene where the kid's mad that he can't take the free toys at church because they're donations for less fortunate kids who don't live in a mansion these toys are for children less fortunate than you ah okay was too good to be true oh bro run Aaron from the office is here and these two are trying to sell their house while trying to hide it from their kids awful thing to do I hate them also I like her as an actor and she was one

of the small Silver Linings in this movie but the writing was so bad she couldn't even save it also I'll be dubbing over this guy's name because I kept calling him the dad because he is a dad in this movie but he's not the dad of the main protagonist so it's it's confusing so I'm just dubbing over him Jeff so they become villains because they can't afford to keep their house because Jeff lost their job as a migration manager like for databases and hearing him talk about computer stuff in this movie is so cringe like

they just didn't have to go into it like this if they didn't know what was going on well any company with a brain needs a good data migration manager okay I mean I wouldn't trust an algorithm to Port over a mySQL database to a new server without any human oversight he literally hates the cloud it's the cloud and wants everything to be local storage or something you're not even using Solid State Storage on site I don't know what that means well I'll tell you what it means what it means is you're entirely at the whim

of a hosted service provider for virtualization and backup s I'm not a woman in Tech I don't know why they even went this deep into it in the first place so they're supposed to be the villains but you feel bad for them and hate the kid and it's also really confusing because it's kind of set from the villain's perspective Jeff finds out that one of the dolls from the first scene is worth like 200 Grand because someone mentioned it at the open house wow 5,000 bucks for an ugly little porcelain kid I didn't get half

that for selling my real kids oh BR and he opens the box to find that the doll is gone and guess who must have took it this kid you know how the rest goes but the the jokes in this movie are so painfully bad I had enough material to make a short compilation I just stepped on a Lego the most pain thing in the world 10year old son is at home by himself yeah but first world problems you know bust w we need a w Pam our family's W is in that house yes dude nobody

has a landline anymore because it's not 1993 what's your next idea should I beep him after I listen to the new MC Hammer joints s sorry I'm sorry all right internet show me your words well played Mom and Dad although one thing that got me is the idea that if you're a British family you have a photo of your family posing on Abby Road but they even do that thing where they make a self-aware nod to the original movie with that movie Kevin watches in it but they literally made an alien version of that movie

for this home alone and then says to get you're ugly yellow no good K this is garbage I don't know why they're always trying to remake the classics Never As Good As the originals I know no also in the Home Alone Multiverse we're set back in the original Home Alone Universe this is supposed to be the same universe the first time they tried to break in also his parents left him home alone by accident on the way to Japan it doesn't matter but the first time they try to break in Max the kid overhears them

talking and thinks that they're going to kidnap him and sell him for money all we have to do is find that ugly little boy and then some crazy old lady will pay us $200,000 for him so he calls the cops and guess who it is evening not Kevin this gave me a heart attack when I watched it at first I was like you're telling me Kevin went through all that just to become a cop a weird cop too I'm sure you never forget your anniversary do you no ring on this finger ma'am no one's been

able to tame this wild stying but this is Buzz don't you know how to knock flemwad a cameo from the original actor but they wrote him in to be like a a loser cob and insinuates that Kevin grew up and got in the business of making home alarm systems guess what the place had a mallister home alarm system oh gee is a coincidence by the end of the movie you completely forget about him though the physical comedy bits are the worst yet so uncreative so unimaginative and they only used the most reused tropes icy driveway

spicy cookies but they added Mentos and soda never would have thought of that Max ices the road which is super dangerous for literally anyone else that has to drive in this neighborhood after sliding down the driveway why don't they just walk up the snow instead her feet catch on fire and instead of just stepping in the snow all around her she tries to go for the faucet also watching a pin go into a finger is so hard to watch more than Marv getting electrocuted to skeletal remains Max puts a VR headset on the Jeff at

one point and we're supposed to believe he doesn't feel it on his head he thinks this is real I don't like it those things are heavy I think you would notice it on your head like the physical comedy is just like this is so stupid though I guess you could make the same argument for that guy in Home Alone 3 that couldn't feel the massive weight difference between a real and toy gun also when you found out he was home why didn't you just knock on the door to ask him or like leave a note

for when the family got back after a bunch of torture they're just begging him to just talk to them and he keeps bullying them it was one of those movies where they had so many opportunities to just talk and explain things and they didn't and it's infuriating to watch eventually they figure out that everything was just a huge misunderstanding and Max doesn't even have the doll I'm 10 years old why on Earth would I want a doll so everything we just watched was completely pointless I hate these characters so who has the doll some random

toddler who's the son of the side characters it's like their aunt and uncle or something and he throws the doll Max catches it and Saves Christmas for them this was the only movie I really wanted to turn off like at the beginning before Max Yelps that he wishes to be home alone the house is absolutely chaotic and not in a funny way it was genuinely stressful to watch I don't know if that's some drama coming out but this gave me so much anxiety I almost wanted to cry I was so close to turning it [Music]

off computer over Max please you are not the only person in this house F tier I don't want to talk about this movie anymore so did Home Alone movies just get worse we knew it would did you really think it was going to be surprise an upset that Home Alone 4 was actually the best one also I don't know why they were obsessed with casting the same genre of kid every single time it's not going to work stop trying to make it work cast a different kid so this is the finished tier list uh what

have we learned adapting beloved movies into more movies that aren't very good maybe isn't a good strategy or is it maybe they all made a profit I don't know I don't know if it's lucrative for them to do this I think they should stop anyway I love Home Alone to let's end it on a high note I think you guys should all watch Home Alone 2 and then one and then maybe the fifth one give the fifth one a chance give the Holiday Heist one a chance also my new song is out it's called Badu

it's the Bing Bong song that you've been hearing a lot of you can go listen to it there's a link in the description I'm Gabby Bell on Spotify and I'm Gabby Bell here also you should subscribe if you haven't already oops
