And I suppose you could ret-con Home Alone 2 to take place in the 2000s, not that that would make much sense. So two Christmases are happening in one year in this universe, I suppose. This is the same age he is in the second film. In fact, Kevin is nine years old in this film. Kevin McCalister would be 19 in this case. On the flip side, this is not a sequel that moves logically from 1992 (the setting of Home Alone 2: Lost in New York) to 2002. However, this is no prequel, as the premise involves Kevin’s parents (Clare Carey and Jason Beghe) being divorced and one of the two “Wet Bandits” of the original film, Marv (here played by French Stewart) having renounced his life of burglary in favor of one of kidnapping. Kevin McCallister (Mike Weinberg) and his two siblings, Buzz (Gideon Jacobs) and Megan (Chelsea Russo), read much younger than they do in the first two films. Only, this doesn’t resemble the McCallister family of the first two films by any stretch of the imagination. Unlike Home Alone 3, which switches narrative focus to an entirely different family, Home Alone 4 returns to the McCallister family. We will get to what little there is to mine in the way of quality. There are very few diamonds in this rough. This is the bottom of the family film barrel that we are scraping here today. When all else fails, making fun of bad movies is…well, I wouldn’t say satisfying in this case.
MIKE WEINBERG HOME ALONE 4 NOW SERIES
Today, I am leaning more heavily on that last sentence of the series summary. Given how critical my writing can be elsewhere on this site, here I try to remain positive. In Diamonds in the Rough, we try to look for the good within the bad, or the misunderstood within the dismissed. Nielsen Rating: 7 | Share: 11 | Viewers: 12.5 (m).Home Alone 5 functioned as a part of ABC Family’s Countdown to the 25 Days of Christmas programming block. It served as the Novempremiere for the 47th season of Walt Disney’s anthology television film series, then titled The Wonderful World of Disney. Home Alone 4 was a made-for-television film. In this installment, we are looking at the final two sequels in the Home Alone series of films: Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House and Home Alone 5: The Holiday Heist. And when all else fails, making fun of bad movies is oh-so satisfying. DitR seeks to find the good within the bad, because the world could use some positivity. Bad movies don’t always start as bad ideas, and flops aren’t always flop-worthy. Diamonds in the Rough (DitR, /dɪ’t ər /) takes some of the most derided, divisive, controversial, financially catastrophic, and meme-worthy movies and tries to find the silver lining.
