Bone - allein zu haus

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.

I honestly want to rate this lower. I think this film is poor in many ways. But I do remember when I was younger thoroughly enjoying it. It would be too bad to stick your kid in front off and let them have a mediocre time.

This era of "CGI talking animated animals" does strike a cord with me as I liked watching these film when I was younger (like 10 or so), so I am slightly biased here. But I feel that's more so the point, it's targeted towards kids who don't need to have the same level of quality adults do in order to enjoy themselves and emerse themselves into a piece of fiction.

Any kid who likes animals would probably like it. I still think it's bad though, even now. So 5/10.

This movie legitimately was so bad. If you like Home Alone, just watch that movie and don't waste your energy trying to entertain yourself with this rip-off. It's very cliche and predictable. If you like the plot summary, please just watch Home Alone. I genuinely cannot stress this enough, but this movie is terrible. Not even your toddler-aged kids will like it. The acting is alright but felt awkward at times, and the plot stops making sense at some times. The cinematics are awful and will leave you questioning your sanity. The animation on the dogs like 'talking' were horrible, it looked like they were having a seizure. The animators definitely have potential, maybe the budget was just low? Either way, seriously, choose a different movie if you love dogs.

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

By far the worst movie I have ever seen and I regret every second of it. All this cause of my beloved teacher.
