Scammed By A 2nd Grader

Rating: 7/10 (2 August 2003)

8-year-old Kevin McCallister is accidentally left at home when his family leaves for Paris, France, where they will spend their Christmas vacation. Now what is Kevin to do? He decides to make his holidays a blast by renting gangster movies, ordering pepperoni pizzas,and etc. But the fun won't last. A series of mysterious robberies and break-ins take place in Kevin's Chicago neighborhood. Who else could be behind it but the wet burglars: Harry and Marv? It's up to Kevin to defend his house from the slow dim-witted burglars's attempts to break in. The meaning of 'a man's house is his castle' takes up an ironic meaning as Kevin beats back the idiotic onslaughts of Harry and Marv with ingenious booby-traps and sardonic wit. It's a hilarious game of wits between Kevin and the burglars as they wage war in the Chicago suburbs.
