| | |  | GIFT SETS | Home » » Home Alone: The Complete Collection | | | | | | | Description: | | Home Alone: Eight-year-old Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) has become the man of the house, overnight! Accidentally left behind when his family rushes off on a Christmas vacation, Kevin gets busy decorating the house for the holidays. But he's not decking the halls with tinsel and holly. Two bumbling burglars are trying to break in, and Kevin's rigging a bewildering battery of booby traps to welcome them!
Home Alone 2: Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is back! But this time he's in New York City with enough cash and credit cards to turn the Big Apple into his own playground! But Kevin won't be alone for long. The notorious Wet Bandits, Harry and Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern), still smarting from their last encounter with Kevin, are bound for New York too, plotting a huge holiday heist. Kevin's ready to welcome them with a battery of booby traps the bumbling bandits will never forget!
Home Alone 3: Here's a perfect movie for kids, who never seem to tire of John Hughes's sure-fire slapstick formula. Working yet another variation on his mammoth 1990 hit, writer-producer Hughes (regarded by many as Hollywood's antichrist) strands a youngster in his own home with the chicken pox in this 1997 retelling. While his parents go to work, he sees a team of burglars invading the neighborhood houses; in fact, they're spies, looking for a toy containing a stolen microchip. The inevitability of the finale--one kid holding off four professionals with toys and garden tools--will do nothing to lessen the amusement of youngsters, who love to see the bad guys get creamed. Adults may pause at the sadistic nature of some of Hughes's pranks, but kids will eat up the image of one of their own outwitting all the adults. --Marshall Fine
Home Alone 4: It's tough being nine. Tougher still is spending Christmas with dad (Jason Beghe) at his new girlfriend Natalie's (Joanna Going) mansion even though it's loaded with all the techno-gadgets any kid could hope for! But this Christmas, Kevin (Michael Weinberg) is really in hot water again, and so are Marv (French Stewart) and his sidekick (Missi Pyle), who are trying to rob Natalie's house! With funnier and more high-tech, crime-stopping wizardry at his disposal than ever, Kevin just might finally put these crooks on ice forever - and keep his parents together while he's at it - in this uplifting, hilarious comedy the whole family is sure to love! | | | Product Details: | | | Actors:

Love this set.Jun 03, 2009
By Kahn Spencer
"KDS"
I hear what everyone is saying about no changes to this set and not remastered and so on. I have never owned the Home alone set but have always loved the movies, especially the first 2, and I don't really care if they are not remastered or have extra features. This set is cheap and it has all the movies and they are just as funny as when I saw them originally. So I say for under $30 it is a good deal..

TOTAL RIPOFFOct 23, 2008
By Marlowe7 To anyone thinking that this collection might include newly remastered widescreen versions of the films, it DOES NOT. Instead, 20th Century Fox has assembled a shameless repackage of the original non-anamorphic discs for films 1 and 2. The transfers look like they were done during the infancy of standard def, which means quite lousy. They couldn't even include the recent Family Fun Edition of the first film (which is remastered). I didn't bother checking films 3 and 4 because it's obvious this is a cash grab for a surplus of the original discs, which have been collected before. The outside box doesn't even bother to tell you the specs of the films (probably anticipating a reaction like mine). Nothing new here except the packaging. Whatever department head gave the green light to this attrocity is in the wrong line of work.

YOU MUST READ THIS BEFORE YOU PURCHASENov 02, 2008
By Lyndall S. Smith
"Crazyedmajor"
First of all these are excellent movies, I have been watching them for almost 20 years (original was released in 1990-91) and I love watching them each year on video. However this three star review is based on the fact that it doesn't include the Family Fun Edition of the first film. If you are buying this thinking that it includes the Family Fun Edition of the first movie, don't waste your time. This does include the original dvd releases of all 4 films and it is a great deal. However when I purchased this I assumed since the family fun edition was the most recent edition it would be included IT ISN'T This is simply a rerelease of the previous Home Alone Boxed Set!

The Same Thing AgainDec 23, 2008
By Jesse Ross Not to take away from the absolute joy and hilarity I get when I watch these movies, because the movies themselves are terrific. But seriously, didn't we get "The Caper Collection" thrown at us a few years ago? And aren't those the same versions of the films we get here? Much to the disappointment of many potential buyers, the answer to both questions is an emphatic YES! I love these films -- even number 4, which was widely panned -- but enough is enough. My recommendation would be this: if you have "The Caper Collection" don't buy this, there is nothing new here. If you don't own any of the movies, either "The Caper Collection" or this one will do, if you want all four movies. Of cours, for the ultimate "Home Alone" experience, go with the "Family Fun" edition of the first film.

Great ValueDec 22, 2010
By M. Campbell
"soup man"
First of all, for those who gave this a one star rating because of the quality, read the product description before you buy. Besides, considering the fantastic price of the movies, I wouldn't expect much more than what was given. These are great movies that my 4 boys and I enjoy thoroughly. If you're not worried about the quality of video on a movie shot in the 1990's, then this is perfect for those families that love to see the "bad guys" get their bell rung a few times. Purchase the movie, pop some popcorn, and have a laughter filled evening with your family.
