Kevin McCallister is left home alone and has to deal with two criminals hot on his tail.

Rating: 1/10 (10 December 2012)

This movie served merely as the platform for Home Alone 3. Not only was Macaulay Culkin not nearly as good as Alex D. Linz, but the fact that it took this franchise two entire movies to build the scene for number three was rather disappointing.
The gags were simply too unrealistic, and the fact that these criminals could not outwit a small child is unbelievable. Not only was Alex D. Linz far cuter than Macaulay Culkin, but he was far better in the role of the abandoned child. The rare highlight in this movie is the break out appearance of John Candy.
To fully grasp the quality distance between Home Alone 1 and Home Alone 3, all one must do is observe the fame to which each main actor went on to after their respective movie(s). Alex D. Linz was the star of the classic, Max Keeble's Big Move. On the other hand, Macaulay Culkin was linked to the late Michael Jackson.
