Is HOME ALONE the BEST Christmas Movie? *Commentary/Reaction* 

Fun Fact: I read that the actor who played Marv is actually extremely arachnophobic so that scream was more real than not. He also refused to do that scene more than once so they had to do it in one take. Lol

I’m can only describe this film by saying the iconic line from Homelander: “It was perfect. Perfect, EVERYTHING, down to the last minute details.”

Something to clear up: The mom is a fashion designer, hence why there's mannequins lying around for Kevin to use, and how she can afford the house they're living in.

The piece of donut sticking to the policeman's phone was a complete accident while filming, but it's so hilarious.

It’s definitely 1 of the best christmas movies, Kevin, Harry, and Marv, that dynamic is priceless. Please react to the sequel too

I love how Angelina says "this movie is so deep" when seeing the church scene and why the old man won't talk to his son. The minor details in the movie go the extra mile with symbolism, notice the old mans hand throughout the movie. As he learns from Kevin and reconciles with his son, his hand heals completely by the end of the movie. The bandage didn't change until after he talks with Kevin for the first time.

The true crime in this film is that Kevin didn't get to eat "This highly nutritious microwavable macaroni and cheese dinner and the people who sold it on sale. Amen.” I love that Macaulay and John Candy were reunited in this after Uncle Buck, even though they don't share a scene together. And the whole funeral story was completely improvised by John. I didn't know that. Memories ❤

To me my Top 3 go-to ones will always be *"How The Grinch Stole Christmas"* 🥇, then *"Home Alone 2: Lost in NY"* 🥈 and then *"Home Alone"* 🥉 in that specific order. I can't argue with this Top 3 made by '10yo me' back then, she's got taste. lol

A classic movie that still holds up and John Williams music👌

“Keep the change, ya filthy animal” is seriously one of my favorite lines in all cinema history.

22:23 Fun fact: he's not actually screaming right there. He wasnt allowed to, because it would've scared the spider. He saved it all up for later, and just went off in the sound booth.

Never mess with Kevin McAlister!

I’m dying that you thought he just placed the tickets in the microwave to dry off and not that he turned it on 😂😂😂

Out of every reactor who's seen this movie, I think you're the only one who's spotted Kevin's ticket being pitched. "Angels With Filthy Souls" was only that particular scene and was filmed separately for the movie. The name is a take on the 30s gangster flick "Angels With Dirty Faces" starring James Cagney. John Candy's cameo role was done gratis for John Hughes, and his entire dialog was improvised. He and Catherine O'Hara were in the Canadian improv scene back in the 70s and 80s. There's several videos on how the crooks should be dead from all of Kevin's traps. They're basically the human versions of Wile E. Coyote.

I’ve watched this film several times and I always end up laughing so hard that I’m honestly crying from laughing🤣🤣!! You are doing an amazing job!!! So much fun!!

I've watched this movie so many times since I was a kid. How am I just now finding out that there was a shot where Kevin's ticket gets thrown away. I never noticed and never really thought about how an extra ticket would have tipped them off that someone was missing.

Merry Christmas 🎄 Angelina ♥️✌️😘😊

This is one of those movies that make you really think about how different of a time the 80s was.

1. John Candy did his part at union rate/FREE for his friend John Hughes RIP 😇😇 2. The items in Kevin's bags were all empty and not the same as what he had a checkout. 3. Daniel Stern/Harry has arachnophobia. That's why he freaked out. (NOTE: tarantula spiders aren't poisonous to humans but look scary). 4. "Angels with Filthy Souls" is not a real movie. 5. GOOF: Harry has tar all over his foot when he steps on the stairs but when he grabs his foot, and all the other scenes after that no tar. 6. NO WAY could a child get the rope tight enough between the house and treehouse without a winch of some kind. 7. There's ANOTHER NO WAY Kevin could clean up that fast. 8. Home Alone II is good. However, Kevin as good hearted as he is, he gets mean. 9. Macaulay Culkin worked with John Candy (and Hughes) in "Uncle Buck". That's how he got this gig. Great first time/share. HINT HINT

i love this movie this and die hard really good movies to watch

Fun fact the elderly gentleman at 13:52 is in the movie "Planes Trains and Automobiles" with the guy at 16:09 i'm telling you this has to be some kind of crossover

Angie, ya gotta do Home Alone 2 after this!

Since no one has mentioned it yet, a popular fan theory is that Kevin grows up to be Jigsaw from the Saw movies.

ANGELINA PLEASE WATCH THE GRINCH (2000)

about the manequin, i believe his mother was like a cloth design or something like that

17:36 That was also the explanation I was given as a kid when I noticed there's too many Santas around. Helper Santas will spread around the world to meet people in Santa's name in pre-Christmas times, because it's only Santa's _most busy time of the year_ to prepare for Christmas eve.

Idk if I was “this functional” as an 8 year old lol but I’m here to believe lol

Merry Christmas from Down under!

There's a fan theory that Kevin grow up to become Jigsaw in the Saw series

Merry Christmas, Ange!!!🎄🎄🎅🏽🎅🏽🎁🎁 Great reactions to the original Home Alone holiday film!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Merry Christmas

Your reactions are always so awesome, Ange!😁

I did Grew up with The movie 🎥 And didn’t know they had a new one

Such a fun movie and the slap stick comedy appeals to so many! The traps in Home Alone 2 still make me laugh all these years later and that is many down to Harry & Marvs reactions!! Live action 'How the Grinch Stole Christmas' has to be on your reaction list & 'Home Alone 2' is a must!!

This movie was also directed by Chris Columbus the guy that also did Harry Potter.

Kevin McCallister is an icon! Please do Klaus & Die Hard! And kiss kiss bang bang is so underrated!

Do the Jim Carrey version of the Grinch, it's better than the animated rebooted did in 2018.

The very end part with the old neighbor was always my favorite part.

Thanks for the video!! See you later!! Stay safe and MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄⛄🌨️❄️🧑‍🎄

I've never watched this movie all the way through before. Thank you for sharing!

My favourite Holiday movie is 'Santa Claus: The Movie' (1985). It seems like a nice prequel to the Tim Allan Santa Clause trilogy, even though they were years apart, and written by different people.

Merry Christmas Angelina 🎉🎊🎄

Part 2 when Marv steps on the nail to this day as a 34 year old adult makes me shiver and rub the bottom of my foot just thinking about it.

finally you react to a movie/show that im obsessed with haha! i cant remember what you watched that made me subscribe but my god your reaction to this movie is God(dess) Tier

Amazing reaction and you are so lovely with all of the expressions.

i saw this in theaters when i was 7.... our group got to the movie shortly before it started, and was the only time i ever had to sit in the front row

I am a grinch from Halloween all th way to th 1st or 2nd week of December. Then......my kids and grandchildren bombard me until Christmas Eve. Lol

This was always one of my 90's childhood Christmas favorites that always made me laugh so hard and it still does!😃🤣

The last time I gave someone change to use a payphone was January 2019. Last NYC payphone was removed May this year. There is only Home Alone 1 and 2.

I was throwing fake rotten tomatoes at the screen when you said you haven't seen The Grinch.

I literally watched this tonight during dinner LOL. I love it because it's DIE HARD for kids.

When you think about it this is the kid version of die hard

I grew up with this movie watching it on vhs at my grandma's house every time I went over there throughout the holiday season. Still one of my favorite movies, I still watch it and I plan on passing it on to my kids as well. And the 2nd one. The others I could care less for

Some others you can check out: National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation (also written by John Hughes) The Muppet Christmas Carol (Director's cut, not Theatrical version) Scrooged

My favourite Christmas movie but also one of my favourite movies ever

I literally watched your entire video, I usually fast forward on reaction videos ALL THE TIME, not with you though, you are just fun to watch! lol keep it up!!

Home Alone 2 is a sequel to this movie but Home Alone 3 is more of a reboot with new people.

Definitely. And home alone 2 as well

I love the Toothless plushie in the background🥰

Great movie! All time Christmas classic.

16:55 I see so many younger people saying that nowadays. It's crazy how much fear has been put in peoples minds while in reality, you can trust pretty much most people. And from what I remember growing up in the 80's and 90's, things were definitely different. I don't know if it was safer then but it did feel that way. People let their kids play outside and it was fine, now they can't leave the house without parental supervision, even though they'd be absolutely fine. It's kind of sad. Outside the US it's not that bad, but still less chill than it used to be

Usually when people say, "i've never seen this movie" I am like "what!" But on here when youtube commentary channels say they Haven't seen said movie i am like, "Yes! There's about to be a fun commentary track coming soon!!" Can't wait until Angelina watches, How the Grinch Stole Christmas Commentary reaction

One of if not my favorite holiday film.🍿🎅🏾

Angelina... So many reactions and I still haven't seen you react to the Narnia trilogy... It's an amazing series I think you'll love!

I like this one OKay but I recommend Ernest Saves Christmas. It's a Christmas classic. It has Douglas Seale as one of the best movie Santa Clauses ever. Plus, it's just really funny and heartwarming. It's got that certain Christmas charm that's perfect for the holiday. It's a perfect way to celebrate the Christmas season. I think Ernest Saves Christmas is one of the best Christmas movies alongside the Muppet Christmas Carol, National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, and Gremlins. I highly recommend checking out Ernest Saves Christmas.

Hey, hopefully one day you'll see my comments. I'd love for you to eventually try and watch Agents of Shield. It's a fantastic reaction show!

7:19 The mannequins are from that Twilight Zone episode where they come to life... no, I don't know

NATIVITY! Still Xmas time. It's an adorable movie about the nativity play. Now one of my must see christmas movies!!

I always watch this and the second movie on Christmas!!

One of my favorites

I love watching home alone every Christmas it's one of the best Christmas movies to watch

Lost in New York is my favorite out of the two

I love that you fixate on the Silver Tuna lol

"Thats so much pizza. How many people are there" had me dead

Milwaukee is about a couple hours North of Chicago. Been there a few times. Haven't tried going there by train from Chicago but have driven up there.

Definitely top 3 alongside Christmas Vacation and Die Hard. BTW Home Alone is one of the most violent movies of all time. Imagine making a realistic version of Home Alone where you see what REALLY happens to Marv and Harry as a result of all those traps? 🤣🤣

a devinitive NO ! it´s a christmas movie and devinitive not a bad one... but this is more brutal than most R-18 action movies... and the follow ups get even more brutal than this "Tom&Jerry" imitation... if you want a really good christmas movie, try "Scrooged" with Bill Murray

My fav line WHEN I GROW UP AND GET MARRIED, I'M LIVING ALONE!😂😂😂

I love this home alone movie and this commentary/reaction made it more fun. Way to go Angelina. And Merry Christmas!

This movie is 3rd behind Die Hard & Home Alone 2.

Theres a re-edit done by the channel Corridor where they turned the plot so Kevin is a serial killer that lured Marv amd Harry into the house to take them out.

loved the video I also saw the flash pilot reaction but I dont see any more from you? did you not have enough time or lost track of doing it?

You know there’s a theory that Kevin grows up to be Jigsaw from the Saw films. And watching this film I can certainly see how it started.

Awesome Christmas movie choice, and you look beautiful, Angelina!

Yes, the 90th… When you could still trust a stranger 😊 RIP John Candy

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!

I like to believe that in an alternate universe, Kevin from Home Alone, grew up to be John McClane from Die Hard

Milwaukee is in the state of Wisconsin and which I'm from and also we're closer to Chicago by an hour or 2 hour drive.

carol of the bells is a christmas song somehow giving me “epic music” vibes - like u just go into battle with the underworld xD

Silver tuna is a slang meaning an object that is better than all of the other ones in it's category.

The mom works as a fashion designer and the dad has another high paying job. The figures in the basement is from the mom.

It's ok you have not seen the Grinch or many Xmas movies.There's always time to catch up.😅 Thanks for sharing another reaction but I hope you feel better soon. Merry Christmas to you and your family.🎁☃️🌲

To atone for your sins, next year, you should watch both the classic animated Grinch and the 2000 live action Grinch. You also need to watch It's a Wonderful Life.

Never thought I’d miss the days of cops going after shoplifters

She is very talkative lol... i love it

The second one is my favorite!

Had me at Gilmore Girls lol Love that series!!!

Not just people dressed up like Santa, it has to be Mall Santa's after all you tell them what you for Christmas so clearly they have to work for the real guy because he brings what you told the mall Santa you wanted. Lol

we need that Home Alone 2 reaction, you'd appreciate it cause it's set in NY

Home Alone 1 & 2 are both really enjoyable
