• Tagline: It's bad news for bad guys...Again.

Home Alone 3 is a comedy in which a young child, Alex Pruett, is left home alone, because he is sick. He, unknowingly, has something a band of four spies want, a microchip hidden in a toy car, though the robbers think that the item is in the house of one of the child's neighbors. The kid catches them in action inside the house, and calls the police, but they manage to escape in the nick of time. This occurs twice, and eventually the police think that the child is faking (as in The Boy Who Cried Wolf). Thus, the young boy is left to deal with them again. The mother leaves him home alone again, which was accidentally in the first two, the kid sets a series of booby-traps, waging a "battle" on the four criminals. The four robbers are finally caught at the end of the film.

The movie is seen by most as a cheap cash-in, having absolutely no connections to the previous films other than the vague theme of a lone kid fighting unintelligent robbers. Simultaneously, it is often praised for not only being different and unique, but also displaying an evolution of bad guys- instead of being completely dumb and unintelligent, the bad guys in this film are much more intelligent and utilise modern technology to sway the advantage to their side. They do however, continue the characteristics of being easily defeated by a child.

It is important to recognise that while Home Alone 3 made an attempt to follow in the limelight of it's predecessors, it also tried to be a different and unique film on it's own.
