Critics consensus

“Home Alone 's uneven but frequently funny premise, stretched unreasonably thin, is buoyed by Macaulay Culkin's cute performance and strong supporting stars.”

This is going to be a big hit with the kids. Word will get out in the schoolyard that Home Alone is really funny. Just don’t let the kids near the iron after they’ve seen it.

Home Alone isn't high art, but it's a swell gift to movie-going families.

Using split-second editing, playfully choreographed violence and exaggerated responses such as the bug-eyed double take, director Chris Columbus has created a live action comedy in the style of a Warner Bros cartoon.

Home Alone earns every laugh and with Hughes’ sweet screenplay, leaves enough heart to keep us coming back.
