4.1? waaaaay too low....


seriously how could you say this film is bad? is it just a hatred of all things Culkin I wonder? anyway this is a childhood favorite of mine and its a shame its kind of forgotten

I love all the Culkin brothers, I was really suprised at the low rating too. I love this film.

i agree this movie was great when i was a child. it really got my imagination going at the very least this movie should get a 6.5.

i swear i don't know how that happened!?!?

reply

No matter what the components are to this film, it's awesome for kids. It captured my imagination so amazingly when I was about eight and although I haven't seen it since then, I love it just for the way it sucked me in.

reply

I would rate this movie at least a 7. It's way better than most of the things I see today. Way too underrated.

This movie is gold to a child and it doesn't feed off children like Pokemon does. Why so many haters?

reply

I hated this movie as a kid and I still hate it now. 4.1 is a tad too high!

its moved to a 4.7 in the last two and a half years or so. way to get the ball rolling.
i too loved this movie as a kid and i proudly purchased it a number of years back (in the $5 bin at wal-mart nonetheless. would have paid full price for it but i cant pass up a deal like that. hah).

also a mention of my liking for the culkins seems necessary.

I didn't like it... I can't recall the whole movie, just the beginning. Perhaps it just frightened me more than anything but I don't look back on it with fond memories.
I was 4 when it came out, by the way.

It's 4.8 now, but still I think this movie is terrific and seriously underrated. I have no problem with anyone who doesn't like it, it is their opinion, but I personally love this movie.

reply

For me, the low quality animation pushed it way down. I would call it a decent movie, but nowhere near greatness.

reply

I gave it an 8. It's good and all, it just isn't my favorite movie

reply

it isn't my favorite either but I was really happy when I saw it was showing a couple of hours ago. Too bad I caught it when there was only about 40 minutes left. It's not on starz ondemand and I looked to see if it was gonna show later tonight or tomorrow but it's not :(

Might I ask that you look at this movie from an adult view, without the fact that you loved it as a child?

I like it now just as much as when I was a kid. The point was for a young boy to conquer his fears and I think that's a good message. I pretty much like every movie now that I liked as a kid.

I know your shoes. There's a very terrible movie that I loved as a kid and I absolutely love still, it's called The Magic Voyage.

Thankfully we've gotten it up to a 5.2 by now(still ought to be higher), but really, the low rating is meaningless. This is obviously an awesome and inspirational film to countless people like us, as children and years later, and it'll always be a 10 in my books.

Take my advice. Watch "Stella". It's hysterical. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443409/
