3 reasons HA4 is MUCH better than the first 3

A: Kevin is never truly 'home alone', which is great! No child should EVER be left alone! He always has a reliable adult around in case he runs into dangers, which sets a good example for parents and children, unlike the other Home Alone movies.

2: It's not gratuitously violent like the others. Violence is bad and kids should never harm others, even if they are 'bad-guy' robbers. Although I didn't approve of the damage he did to the nice house, I am glad all of the 'traps' just consisted of either spraying people with water or closing doors (albeit rudely) in faces. It was very entertaining!

D: The actors were great! They were _real_ people. Not a bunch of fake 'professionals'. French Steward could really squint his eyes hard and make funny faces, and I could really picture my retarded nephew playing the role of Kevin-- it was just _that_ real!
