Alone for Christmas

This movie was pretty ruff. It was pawwwwsibly the worst rip off of home alone. Pretty sure it made me want to defenistrate my self. But hey it could be worse it could have been a remake

Trees with leaves in Wisconsin on Christmas Eve? LOL! Enough said! Bone is adorable, though.

Just about as bad as it gets.

Obviously a low budget movie but my goodness the actors are abysmal.

Not fun, not exciting, not funny at all.

Dogs are nice though, hence the 1 star rating.

If you thought you'd never see 'Home Alone' meets 'Jaws', then you're in for a surprise as Kevin Sorbo delivers an almost faithful rendition of Robert Shaw's famed shark-hunter as he attempts to subdue a pesky mutt who's proving a handful for a trio of bumbling thieves trying to ransack a house on Christmas.

Beyond Sorbo's brief parody, it's rank amateur hour as the thieves become increasingly frustrated by the dog's spirited defence of its owner's property, leading to predictable results. David DeLuise and Kim Little co-star as the anxious parents desperate to return home and reunite their kids with the beloved pets.

The gags nearly all fall flat (a couple are also questionable), and the paper-thin plot is unable to sustain the overlong 95 minute run-time on this over-cooked Christmas turkey. There's cheap and cheerful and then there's cheap and nasty, and this cringeworthy claptrap is firmly the latter.

This movie is by no means a good movie. Most of the movie consists of weak dialogue, cheap cinematics and poor acting. Read until the end of the review if you're hesitant to watch.

Luckily, the last half of the movie has a lot of hilarious scenes. Similar to the Home Alone movies. All these scenes are super cheap and weird, but with the right mindset it can be hilarious. Some of them had the family rolling in laughter.

I would happily rewatch the last half for its stupidity and laughter. But the rest is not very entertaining.

For anyone who wants to skip the first half, here's a summary of what happens:

A family is going to their grandma during christmas.

They have 2 dogs, one of which is wrongfully blamed for ruining the house, and is therefore sent to the kennel during christmas.

Both dogs realize that their home is about to be broken into, so they both try to find their way home to stop the burglars.

One dog sets up traps, and the other dog finds a ride home.

The last half is similar to Home Alone, and is pretty much the only thing worth seeing.
