Amazon.co.uk Review
Now and forever a favourite among kids, this 1990 comedy written by John Hughes (The Breakfast Club) and directed by Chris Columbus (Mrs. Doubtfire) ushered Macaulay Culkin onto the screen as a troubled 8-year-old who doesn't comfortably mesh with his large family. He's forced to grow a little after being accidentally left behind when his folks and siblings fly off to Paris. A good-looking boy, Culkin lights up the screen during several funny sequences, the most famous of which finds him screaming for joy when he realizes he's unsupervised in his own house. A bit wooden with dialogue, the then-little star's voice could grate on the nerves (especially in long, wise-child passages of pure bromide), but he unquestionably carries the film. Billie Bird and John Candy show up as two of the interesting strangers Culkin's character meets. Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern are entertainingly cartoonish as thieves, but the ensuing violence once the little hero decides to keep them out of his house is over-the-top. --Tom Keogh

Dissapointing release November 11, 2006

This would have been a fantastic release, but it's not. Why not? It's missing the audio commentary by director Chris Columbus and actor Macaulay Culking and the "Angels with Filthy Souls" featurette available on the R1 release.

I'm not a huge fan of audio commentaries but I was looking forward to hearing this one, because Home Alone is one of my favorite films. So, if you want this DVD buy the R1 release and avoid this UK release.
