No Rom and no Com - Home Again review by JR
'Home Alone' is the title of a Carole King song from 1971, and, despite topical references, this film feels like a seventies TV sit com - most of it is filmed in a very stagey 'garden' and large house. The script is bland and limp - one accepts a rom com 's narrative will be flaky, but the comedy should make up for it. But it is not very funny. Reece Witherspoon goes through the motions, acting winsome; Pico Alexander as her toyboy is devoid of personality, and what a waste of Michael Sheen's considerable talents.

Oh dear Reese - Home Again review by dh
I was looking forward to seeing Reese and Martin Sheen in a film together but after just 10 minutes in we knew this was not going to be our evening's entertainment. Very 'mannered' acting from Reese...whatever happened there I wonder? The dialogue was clunky and so false we gave up. Didn't even get to see Martin!!! Sometimes you just know a film should never have been added to your wish list. I expect Martin was very well paid anyway. Still love him!!...and Reese!

light and watchable - Home Again review by CP Customer
An enjoyable lightweight film, with some great actors. I agree with the previous reviewer's comments that the acting talent is somewhat under used, but nevertheless I found it quite watchable.
