  Home Alone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Home Alone is a classic 1990 holiday film starring Macaulay Culkin as Kevin McCallister, an eight-year-old who is mistakenly left behind when his family flies to France for a Christmas vacation.
Home Alone 3 had an entirely different plotline and cast, whereas Home Alone 4 was a continuation from the first two movies, but with completely different actors.
The McAllisters' house is in Winnetka, Illinois on Lincoln Avenue.

 At-A-Glance Film Reviews: Home Alone 4 (2002)
Home Alone 4, however, is a prime example of how completely they fail in the absence of thought and sound character development.
It cycles forcibly through a clumsy hybrid of the Other Woman formula and the formula established by the first three films in the series (never mind that this time, the kid is technically not ever left at home alone).
Strangely, this fourth film features the McCallister family and one of the two villains from the first two Home Alone films, despite that none of the original actors reprise their roles.

 DVD Times - Home Alone 4
Upon arrival he discovers his dad doesn’t live in a regular home anymore, his house is a multi million dollar smart house, you want the curtains closed, the fire lit, doors opened or the vacuuming done, all you have to do is speak into the handy remote control.
Also, despite the title, there isn’t a moment in the film when Kevin is actually in the home alone, always accompanied by a maid and butler who simply stop paying attention whenever the plot requires it.
The Home Alone series has been a very lucrative franchise so it’s obvious why another instalment was made all these years after the last, but the lazy manner this film has been made in makes it clear that this was merely a money grabbing idea, and not a whole hearted attempt to reinvigorate the franchise.

 DVD Talk Review: Home Alone 4
Home Along 2: Lost in New York was a commendable follow-up that added just as many laughs as the first.
But when Home Alone 3 debuted minus Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern as the bumbling burglar duo, and with a new child actor as its star, things went downhill.

In Home Alone 1, Kevin is 8, in number 2, he's 10 and in number 4, despite this being set after the first two, he's 9.
Home Alone 4 is what gives the home alone films a bad name and what was the point of using different actors?
Whereas other Home Alone movies use the actions of characters to set the plot with interesting camera angles, this film includes a 20 odd minute plot setting through character dialog which drags on while the camera slingshots around them as a vein attempt of producing something interesting.

 dOc treehouse: Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House (2003)
Home Alone 3, directed by Columbus protégée Raja Gosnell, kept the mean-spirited humor of the previous films and did away with much of the family angst.
Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House goes in the opposite direction—the slapstick scenes are few and far between, but there is plenty of sit-com level familial drama.
The Home Alone films have always displayed a disturbing streak of classism (something about an intellectually superior, rich, white kid defending his home from lower-class invaders), and in this fourth film, it is even more gratuitous.
