Accidentally left behind when his family rushes off on a Christmas vacation, eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) embarks on a hilarious, madcap mission to defend the family home when two bumbling burglars (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) try to break in--and find themselves tangled in Kevin’s bewildering battery of booby traps.

He's forced to grow a little after being accidentally left behind when his folks and siblings fly off to Paris. A good-looking boy, Culkin lights up the screen during several funny sequences, the most famous of which finds him screaming for joy when he realises he's unsupervised in his own house. A bit wooden with dialogue, the then-little star's voice could grate on the nerves (especially in long, wise-child passages of pure bromide), but he unquestionably carries Home Alone . Billie Bird and John Candy show up as two of the interesting strangers Culkin's character meets. Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern are entertainingly cartoonish as thieves, but the ensuing violence once the little hero decides to keep them out of his house is over-the-top. -- Tom Keogh Review: Excellent family movie - Nice family movie Review: One kid and burglars getting legally murdered in the most festive way possible. - Forget subtlety—Home Alone is peak holiday magic: one kid, a mansion, and enough booby traps to make burglars rethink life choices.

A classic for a reason
Even though this is shown every year at Christmas on some random channel I always seem to miss it. So I decided to get it since I've not seen it for a few years. It's still a great film. A special note must be made on the transfer of the 4K version. It's excellent. Normally 80's to early 90's transfers on 4k are hit and miss. We've had some good ones over the years and a few disappointing ones and this is certainly one of the great ones. The colours are fantastic and the detail and clarity of the image (while retaining it filmic look) is also fantastic. I really can't imagine this film ever looking better than it does here. If you love this film you owe it yourself to get the 4K Blu-ray.

A great Christmas movie that can be watched at any time of the year
The film is very good and in my opinion, the best one out of the lot. As you may know, it is about an eight-year-old boy, Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) who is accidentally left home alone when his family rush off to France for Christmas. He has to defend his house when two cat burglars, Harry and Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern, respectively) try to break in and hilarity ensues as Kevin sets a ton of booby traps around the house. The picture quality is wonderful, a real step up from the DVD release. The film on Blu-Ray is 1080p HD and 1.85:1 aspect ratio (16:9). The special features are excellent and not just a trailer or three, as with the DVD releases. There is the `Angels with Filthy Souls' featurette from the film but as a proper clip. This appears to be slightly different from the version shown in the film but good nonetheless. The deleted scenes are also very good and some of them should have, in my opinion, been left in the film as they are that good. There is also a `Making of Home Alone' feature which is very interesting and gives a real insight into the production of the movie. There are many more special features, all of which are very well done. My only complaint is none of the special features are in HD, not even the aforementioned deleted scenes but you can't blame them really as many of them weren't made that way, such as the making of the film and a press featurette from 1990. So, all in all, it is a great release, the movie is good and there are plenty of good special features to keep you occupied. A worthwhile buy and plenty of value for money.
