Not even when Marv falls off the chandelier. As a matter of fact, I don't think I laughed once when watching this movie. The script was full of tired and stale parallels of the predecessors, there was nothing else new. Really, he has the charisma of a squashed cabbage. French Stewart also struggled with the script, and could have also have been great, had he the goofiness and charm of Daniel Stern. Instead he was the only redeeming merit, if you call it a redeeming merit, of the movie, whereas everyone else lumbered through their scenes. Whereas Culkin was cute and self-assured, Wineburg tried to put some enthusiasm into the role, had the script allowed him to act. The reality, no one can top Macaulay Culkin as Kevin. Michael Wineburg could have been a great Kevin, if the script had been better. The plot was laughable, and don't get me started on how inconsistent it was with the first two films. Even the director was different, and obviously had little experience behind the camera. The first problem is that no one from the first two movies return, which is a really bad sign. At least Home Alone 3 had some enjoyable scenes. This movie has nothing to recommend it, not even the gadget-filled house. I am just wondering whether I am the only one who honestly thought Home Alone 3 would be the worst, because the characters were changed, but was proved wrong by this abomination. in reality, Home Alone 3 is only adequate, but the first two movies are sterling entertainment, I can promise you that. Home Alone 4 is so bad, it makes Home Alone 3 look like a masterpiece. Shoddy, wooden, synthetic, cheap and ultimately embarrassing for all concerned - but no more so than for the viewer! Completely deserving of a minus one rating! I strenuously recommend that you give this shonk a wide berth! A screaming disaster from the opening scenes. Kevin's age doesn't even tally with the series.he's younger here than he was in New his OWN admission. How this ever made it to a boxed set of four Home Alone movies, beats me. What the HELL is this? well, apart from a lingering insult to the first two Home Alone movies.who's to say! The second sequel was unmitigated trash, but compared to this, eligible for "best picture!" Everything from the script, the acting to the sets, seemingly knocked-up from left-overs at the nearest Reject shop, smack of Z-grade involvement. This is a home video and I would think any one of 200 million families could be handed a camcorder and come up with a more interesting 89 minutes. Inarguably one of the worst movies ever made.
