The Home Alone franchise consists of four main movies, released between 1990 and 2021. The original film was a huge success, and subsequent sequels followed with varying degrees of success. Here's a breakdown of each movie: Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is the main protagonist in all four films. In Home Alone (1990), he's accidentally left behind by his family during the holidays. In Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992), Kevin reunites with his family but finds himself lost in a new city. The third installment, Home Alone 3 (1997), sees Kevin facing off against a new bumbling villain. In the final film, Home Sweet Home Alone (2021), a reboot of the series, Kevin must defend his home against two con artists.
