"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME
Home Alone 3 | 1997 | PG | - 2.4.2
Third sequel in the series: a new kid actor plays a boy left home alone with chicken pox who must battle some bad guys.
SEX/NUDITY 2 - Sexual innuendo. Posters of scantily clad women and naked women (but no actual nudity seen).
VIOLENCE/GORE 4 - Mainly played for laughs: a remote control car smacks someone in the face, a man is hit by a car and lands on the windshield, men run into each other, a woman is dragged by a dog through some bushes, a couple of men are shocked (electrocuted), falls (usually pretty far) and stumbles, chases. Heavy objects fall on people in many scenes (a barbell, a chest, flower pots, lawn mower, planks). Men are hit in the crotch a couple of times. Threatening with guns. Small explosions.
LANGUAGE 2 - A few mild obscenities.
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Children home alone, thieves, defending your home.
MESSAGE - Kids can be smarter than adults.
CAVEATS
Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.
We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.
Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
