    Funny story under rated give it a chance
    Honestly this Was Actually a very funny story made me laugh a lot it was cool seeing buzz and it being in the same universe I think a lot off people gave this bad reviews without actually wacthing it but give it a chance ! I understand why the first 2 movies were brilliant but it was funny and many moments made me laugh its underrated . It was cool hearing about what Kevin is doing too . I suspose the only thing I didn't like was the fact the two robbers ( Who I thought were great in there roles ) became friends with the kid after the kid set them on fire and put them through all that pain but I understand maybe it helped the story flow and the plot wouldn't off worked if ir wasn't for the misunderstanding but I would rather the robbers and the kid still hate each other but If you Haven't wacthed give it a chance you may be plesntly suprised.

    Nowhere near as bad as the reviews would suggest!
    Don't believe the terrible reviews. This is a fun family Christmas movie, as simple as that! And I say this as a HUGE fan of the originals. Home Alone 1 and 2 are a couple of my favourite films of all time, let alone just Christmas ones. Is this an absolute classic, like those first 2? Of course not, but that doesn't make it a 3.6.

    Yes, you may find the kid kind of annoying, and it's cheesy, but that's what you expect from a Christmas movie! This delivers plenty of laughs, the traps are clever and interesting, there's a decent twist, and the acting is mostly good, too. Including cameos from Butch from those beloved originals, and Kenan Thompson from Kenan and Kel!

    I genuinely believe people are only giving this film such negative reviews because they're directly comparing it to the classic originals. That is a shame, but it's also kind of on Disney by naming it as they did. If a few details were changed and the film had a different name, I genuinely believe the reviews would have been much better!

    Try not to be a cynic, switch off your brain off for 96 minutes and give this a go. You never know; you might even enjoy it. I know I did!
