It’s what many of us wanted to do at a young age, and we can still appreciate the movie now, especially as previous generations continuously smite us for taking too long to grow up and blah, blah, blah. How you feel about your family is a complicated thing. Deep down, you'll always love them. But you can forget that you love them, and you can hurt them and they can hurt you, and that's not just because you're young.
– He's not gonna talk to anybody. Except maybe a fish. Let's go to the subway tunnel. I'll feel better once I get him on ice. Home Alone zoomed in on how the McCallister family left one of their children behind when they went on a Christmas vacation to Paris. This set the tone for a hilarious, light, and comedic movie.
Scrooge: A Christmas Carol REVIEW – Not Scrooge-y Enough
This led him to do what he always wanted but couldn’t do when his family was around—eat junk food, watch action-packed movies, and more. However, it wasn’t all fun, as he needed to defend himself and their home from burglars. While he’s known to wet the bed, he keeps drinking a ton of soda anyway, and Kevin is not thrilled at the prospect of having to share a bed with him, and really who can blame him? Seeing Fuller be rather mischievous and shameless about drinking the soda is also really funny. Some of the scenes and quotes from the movie are iconic and really easy and fun to quote. Many of these lines are hilarious, and a few are heartwarming, but they are all memorable.
"This house is so full of people it makes me sick. When I grow up and get married, I'm living alone." "This is ridiculous. Only a wimp would be hiding under a bed. And I can't be a wimp. I'm the man of the house." It's a great gag even if it's a little odd that Kevin managed to defeat the Wet Bandits and clean up all of his traps in time before his family got home yet still somehow forgot about Buzz's room.
Did You Also Grow Up Watching Home Alone Every Christmas?
There could be girls on this floor! I was very careful, sir. You can't be too careful with underwear. That won't be necessary, sir.
Buzz apologized to you. Yeah, then he called me a trout-sniffer. He was just sucking up to you. Okay, why don't you just sit up here and think things over? When you're ready to apologize to everyone, you can come down. I'm not apologizing to Buzz.
“I’m eating junk food and watching rubbish, you better come out and stop me!”
– No, they're still looking. – We’re on the next flight out. During the time he spent alone, he felt free.
In their family, he was treated poorly by his older siblings, and he felt like his feelings weren’t being heard and validated by his parents. This was the main driving force behind his sense of joy when he got left behind, all alone, during Christmas. The other quote people often say is “Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal,” but that line actually isn’t said in the first film but only in the sequel.
Is my transportation here? – Out in front, sir. A limousine and a pizza.
What are the holidays without rewatching our favorite ’90s Christmas movies? Settling down on the couch with a cozy blanket and popcorn and popping in a classic family flick is the perfect antidote to the busyness of the season. So, what makes a great holiday movie? One that you know and love so much that its movie quotes lend themselves to being repeated all year long! And as evidenced by the sheer volume of iconic Home Alone quotes, this 1990 cult classic is one of those movies. It’s the mad dash of the holiday season, and your to-do list is slightly overwhelming, but you’re trying to make the most of it.
When did you see him last? No, I saw him at the door. He was with us in the terminal. Most people get separated at security.

He’s pretty funny and also rather sweet, and this is one line that shows that. The fact that the two characters can help each other with their fears is heartwarming and a big part of what makesHome Alone so beloved. When Kevin's parents first wake up in a panic, they look at each other across the bed and scream this line in unison, sparking a frantic hurry to get everything together on time. It's a hugely relatable moment that's hard not to remember whenever similar situations crop up in real life. When Home Alone came out in 1990, Kevin McAllister, played by Macaulay Culkin, quickly became every child's hero. You could identify with his plight as the perennially overlooked child, with his parents' favor always going to his less-deserving siblings.
After all, it was created by the same guy who did the music for Harry Potter, Hook and E..T. Like many of us, Lauren Hansen was skeptical of Home Alone lead Kevin McCallister’s ability to relentlessly torture and abuse two grown men, even though they happen to be inept robbers out to steal from him. The fact that they survive Kevin’s house of horrors but cannot handle being hit with a shovel by an old man. We spent 9 months in jail thinking we had the worst luck in the universe. We busted out and we’re doing fine.
