This is the most depressing, poorly made, insulting film "comedy" ever made. Twentieth Century Fox shot this in South Africa to save CASH and it's SO obvious. We are meant to think it's America still!! Home Alone was still a franchise they felt had a pulse and would bring in more cash from the deluded dozens who didn't ask for their money back (some of them posted favourable reviews here...either that or it's the production team trying to big this steaming pile up). This film kills the reputation of the first two which were actually rather good. Home Alone 3 is a disgrace, all in it obviously have a deep-seated contempt for the human race.

Need I say more? Buy the excellent Robert Wise 1963 version and don't waste your money on this rubbish. Oh....and what's more, Claire Bloom is far sexier than Catherine Zeta Jones.

It is a sad fact of our lives as lesbians that at some time or another the vast majority of us will have had to deal with discrimination, based solely on our sexual orientation. A sadder fact is that many of us do lose the understanding or support of family, when we identify as gay or lesbian. By simply being honest about who we are we stand to isolate ourselves from the people we have known and loved longest in our lives. That is why the wider lesbian community can become so important, as a surrogate family and support system. Our shared history gives us a common understanding and we have all learned, against a backdrop of misconception, the value of understanding.
An interesting film about the very negative and inhumane consequences of the security policy that followed 9/11, though it was present already before. I got one of these famous letters giving you two weeks to leave the USA when I was in North Carolina, though I had been on a wrong visa for nine months and the immigration services knew about it and just tolerated it because I had to fulfill a contract that had been signed and the fault was that of a dumb bureaucrat in the US consulate in Bordeaux. 9/11 only increased the tension and made that policy a lot more systematic. But it is totally false to believe that this security policy is only trying to identify the illegal immigrants in the USA. The real aim is not to terrorize them (which it does of course), ...

Hollywood Ending sees Woody Allen playing a nervous film director (an acting stretch, I know) whose best years are a long way behind him (quiet, you!). Lucky for him, he's offered a chance to turn his career around; unlucky for him, it means working with his ex-wife and the man who stole her away. As if this weren't bad enough, Allen comes down with a case of hysterical blindness, meaning he has to direct a big budget studio film while being unable to see. Slight hilarity ensues.
What you get with this one is an attempt at satire, with Allen getting in a few jabs at mainstream Hollywood, so a certain amount of exaggeration is to be expected. Problem is, he pushes things much too far, and it becomes impossible to accept that no one involved in the making ... Read More:
