one of the best funny christmas movie ever made very funny anyone can watch its very funny

luv it!!!!!

Oh no no no no no! This is a horrid film because all children under the age of 18 that live in a household will be afraid of this movie! They will think that some terrible people would be after them in their OWN HOME (a place that is supposed to be comforting) also, the idiotic parents that allow their children to stay home alone, will wet their pants just as much as their children! tisk tisk!

I checked the CS review, so I was caught offguard by the inappropriate language. My son (age 8) was shocked that I had rented a movie with so many "bad words". Please use caution. This site has been so helpful, please review the older movies with the same care as the current movies.

but shows kids that the way you solve your burglary probelms is not by calling the cops, but cleverly hurting them in various ways and contraptions. It's one of those guilty-pleasure movies!

I watched this a few years ago with my daughters when they were about 14 and 16 and we loved it. Rented it recently for my 10-year old son and was really shocked at how rough and disrespectful the family members are to each other in the first few minutes. We bailed out early. This is a classic, fun, inventive movie but with some really snarky, harsh dialogue. Not to mention the cartoonish violence. I'd say 12+ on this one.

Some moderate words like "cr*p" "a**" but nothing sever.

I loved this movie growing up, and so I bought it for my kids for Christmas. I forgot how horribly ugly the family members in this movie speak to one another and the reference to "nude beaches" at the beginning, and when Kevin finds the Playboy magazine after he realizes he's alone in the house and can go exploring wherever-whatever he wants. But if you can get past these bits (they could have made their point more innocently) the movie is funny and empowering for kids. There were times when I thought I should turn it off, but, as always, know your kids, and talk with them about the things they see! An aside--I am very surprised that Common Sense Media doesn't address the "nude beaches" and Playboy magazine reference in their reviews. I would have liked to have seen this prior to showing the movie to my children.

Kids love the sense of empowerment it gives them to take a situation in their own hands. While the situation would normally be very scary, I think the physical comedy really works here.

i luv this movie it's awesome i watch it every day during christmas time it's amazingly funny

This is one of my favorite holiday family films!!!!!!!! It's funny,amusing,and awsome!!!!! But the reason i say it's IFFY for age 8 is because there is strong language and over the top vilonce including a scene that show a man shout another man in FULL display.

Home alone is a great movie it has robbers in it but they are sort of dumb but all together it is a great Christmas film!

THIS IS THE COOLEST MOVIE EVER

Love it! Watch this one, and then watch Home Alone 2! They are both so funny!

This movie mixes family, christmas, slapstick, and comedy in one sweet package. In fact, no other slapstick films have managed to capture the innocence that the main actor gives. Reccomended.

It was pretty good nothin bad in it

This was an okay movie, and I gave it a pause because there were about four or five swear words (I'm a real stickler for profanity). Other than that, just about nothing is wrong. Lots, and I mean LOTS of namecalling, including moron, idiot, jerk, and so on. Violence is minimal: some blowtorch action, a man gets serious burns on his head and hands. Some glass in the foot. All is made to be humorous, though. That, and a PlayBoy magazine is shown, but nothing inappropriate.

yup yep yep

The reason why I like the movie is because it is funny and it is right for kids and it is not bad for them.

awsome i recomnd

wonderful.

This movie is super funny but I disagree with them saying no sex. In one scene, he reads Playboy. Now it wouldn't be too good to expose that to kids now would it. But over all it's a hilarious movie for ages 10 and up!
