Home Alone 3 is an OK movie, but not as good as the original.
The humor isn't as funny, the plot is the same as before, and worst of all... they replaced the main character of the originals: Kevin! Sadly, his substitute is pretty odd, and WAY too smart for his age. Kevin was one of the things that made the original so fun. But, some of the stunts are clever, (like the one with the gun) just not clever enough.
Skip this unnecessary installment.
Do yourself a favor and watch the originals, which are much better than this movie.
5/10
