IMDb Picks: Flashback to 19901 of 30
Home Alone | Stream Now on HBO, Available to Rent on Prime Video
Plot: An eight-year-old troublemaker must protect his house from a pair of burglars when he is accidentally left home alone by his family during Christmas vacation.
Our Take: Thirty years later, and Macaulay Culkin may still be working to distance himself from the role that cemented his child star status, but despite his best efforts, I still adore him as the precocious Kevin McCallister. Big respect for his decision to step back into the spotlight in unexpected places ("American Horror Story" is a solid and bold move), but I can’t let the holiday season pass by without watching this infinitely quotable Christmas comedy with an epic cast, including Catherine O’Hara, Joe Pesci, and John Candy. — Hannah
