Thanks for the memories!
Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
While the story line as okay, the acting was 3 rate at best. and plot cheesy and the execution leaves much to be desired, this film was a waste of time and effort. Do not bother watching it find something else to watch please spare your self. I have not seen such a lousy film since attack of the killer Tomatoes circa 1980. I give this film 0.0 stars and say throw it on the cutting room floor.If you are desperate for something to watch the by all means give this film a whirl. I am sorry I just could not get past the obnoxiously bad acting and fourth rate dialog the syntax was wore then Baby Geniuses give me a break is this the best Hollywood can come up with now for family films a 3 rate garbage film with unknown actors and actresses, come on Hollywood you can do better then this.
I watched this movie and was bored out of my mind. It was just so extremely lame. It was such a Home Alone wannebe. The acting was so mediocre, and i have to wonder what the people were thinking when they made this movie. More than likely anyone that reads this hasn't seen the movie, and I won't tell you not to watch it, but I would not recommend it. The only reason I give it a 2 instead of a 1 is Blake Clark as Sarge trys to do something with this lame excuse for a movie.
Alone In The Woods is a bad attempt to copy the Home Alone concept with the young played by Brady Bluhm matching wits with the bad guys who are two of the dumbest that you can find.But this film pales compared to the John Hughes film. So if your looking for a good film stay away from this one about the only ones who will like this dog are the really young kids and it may be too much for them.
Chick Vennera is the only reason why I wanted to see this film. Mr. Vennera is very funny. Seeing a pregnant Laraine Newman is a sight to behold. It's good to see her acting again. I didn't really care for the film itself. Kids may like it, however some things in the film might give some kids bad ideas.
