Stay Home, and Watch It

Rating: 7/10 (26 December 2005)

TBS airs so many good specials lately, and especially during holiday season. This is a pass for it.
Culkin plays Kevin McCallister, a snotty boy whose family accidentally leaves him "Home Alone" on a holiday vacation. While home, he starts to realize that he likes it that way... until Harry and Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) intrude into the area as 2 bandits who attempt to rob every house in his neighborhood. When they find out they get more for what they bargained for, realizing that there's someone in the house, the 2 try and "kill" him, and yet get away with some stuff, but it won't be that easy, as Culkin, the prankster that he is, sets traps to stop them in their path and it goes from there as a wild goose chase in a race for the finish.
