Many children of the relatives who come to visit the family of McCallisters always tease little Kevin, so he wishes that one day all his family have disappeared.
The aforementioned one day has come, and one morning Kevin wakes up to find out that his parents and all of the relatives have disappeared.
Having faced such a situation, a little child starts doing everything that was not allowed to do when his parents were at home. As it comes obviously further in the movie, his parents have not disappeared but left him at home accidentally before going for Christmas to Paris.

He prepared a real plan with all of the strategic steps in case something will go wrong and is ready to protect his house as a real American.
I am aware of the fact that this film becomes a traditional Christmas and New Year time spending for many families around the world. Many people not only enjoy the film produced and written by John Hughes but find it quite inspiring. No wonder that all of his other movies are very positive. It may be the reason because of his classical level approach. Check-Out Woman : Where's your father? Kevin McCallister : He's at work. Check-Out Woman : What about your brothers and your sisters?
Kevin McCallister : I'm an only child. Check-Out Woman : Where do you live? Kevin McCallister : Uh, I can't tell you that. Check-Out Woman : Why not? Kevin McCallister : Because you're a stranger.

The entire premise of Home Alone is now an impossibility, because how could a child end up accidentally abandoned and declared missing in this new Millennium of mass communication?
Today, Kevin would be live-tweeting his ordeal, sticking giddy selfies all over cyberspace and then — if he started to feel frightened and forlorn — signing-in to Skype to call up his folks in France.
This is a very knowing film of sharp wit and sophistication, but as a screenwriter John Hughes was the best in the business when it came to writing young people. Home Alone is aglow with innocence, playfulness and a refreshing absence of malice, when you get down to the soul of it all.
In this paradigm a house becomes more than a living space — it becomes an adventure with the stairs reconfigured as a sled run, the laundry chute as a target range and the vast gap between the main building and the treehouse envisioned as a zip-wire route. The Looney Tunes aspect goes beyond the third-act spectacle and is deeply ingrained in the characterisation as all the cast around Kevin are painted in thick broadstrokes.
Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern are pantomime boo-hiss baddies par excellence and, besides the despicable scheming and genuine threat, they provide terrific physical and verbal comedy and an odd, ugly charm. The result is maximum pain for maximum pleasure, punctuated by the smarting, infuriated Pesci doing his best Muttley impression. They too are about as subtle as the bricks that Kev lobs at his nemeses in his later New York jaunt.
Their offspring and extended family, however, are a band of archetypal awful relations gift-wrapped for intolerable December get-togethers.
The McCallisters' house is packed with instantly recognizable details and delightful features to recreate hilarious scenes.
There is everything you need to stage Kevin's fake Christmas party, a basement furnace with a LEGO light brick, iron-drop function, swinging paint cans, collapsible shelves, zip line from the attic to the tree house and more. With 3, pieces, this is the biggest LEGO Ideas set so far and the bricks are divided into bags following the movie's plotline, so you can relive the story as you build during the holidays.
