DVD Reviews of Home Alone 2 - Lost in New York

DVD Review: Good buy
Summary: 4 Stars

I was pleased to find this item. It arrived in great shape and in a timely manner.

DVD Review: Home alone 2
Summary: 5 Stars

This is the second one I purchased. I needed another because my other DVD got a little worn/scratched up. I thoroughly enjoy this movie. It's better than the first one, and I like the first one too. I will actually watch it in the summer time as well. It's just fun to watch. I will always have one in my DVD collection.

DVD Review: Really??
Summary: 1 Stars

After reading all the rave reviews, I figured my children would enjoy this movie - after all, they thought HA3 was hysterical. We were so surprised to find that HA2 was just plain weird! The kids were bored, and creeped out by the NYC scenes (they are 7 & 9). We did not finish watching it. Give me the original any day!

DVD Review: All around excellence!
Summary: 5 Stars

This was a gift for a 5 year old boy who loves the whole "Home Alone" series. It arrived still wrapped (brand new!)when we expected a "like new" product. Great! And, it arrived long before the date we were given! We are very impressed with this particular vendor! Thank you so very much!!!

DVD Review: "Home Alone" With a 2 on the End
Summary: 3 Stars

Did you love Home Alone so much that you wished you could watch it again, only this time in New York? Well, you got your wish my friend. This movie is almost a carbon copy of the original with a different setting, right down to Catherine O'Hara's screaming "Kevin!"

The family is off to Florida for a Christmas vacation, but at the airport, Kevin (Macaulay Culkin) accidentally follows a man that looks like his father into a plane headed for New York. When he finds out he has made another blunder, he isn't scared at all. He takes in the sights (including the World Trade Center) and checks into the Plaza Hotel. A goofy bellboy (Rob Schneider) and a suspicious clerk (Tim Curry) give him some trouble, but Kevin has no trouble tricking them with a few clips from Angels With Even Dirtier Faces. He meets a kindly toy shop owner (Eddie Bracken) and is distressed to find that his old friends the Wet Bandits (Joe Pesci, Daniel Stern) have busted out of prison and plan to rob the toy store.

The big fight against the robbers at the end of the film isn't done in quite the same way as the first film. It has far too many "bang" and "wham" sounds to be anything but childish and foreshadows the low quality sequels to follow.

And notice all that great product placement? American Airlines must have made a hefty bundle from all of the times the company logo was shown in this film, and I know I really wanted a Talk Boy when I was a kid.

This is a good movie for kids and adults who were kids when the movie came out, but you might find yourself groaning about how predictable the plot is.

Description of Home Alone 2 - Lost in New York

Kevin McCallister (Macaulay Culkin) is back! But this time he's in New York City with enough cash and credit cards to turn the Big Apple into his own playground! But Kevin won't be alone for long. The notorious Wet Bandits, Harry and Marv (Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern), still smarting from their last encounter with Kevin, are bound for New York too, plotting a huge holiday heist. Kevin's ready to welcome them with a battery of booby traps the bumbling bandits will never forget!
This somewhat unpleasant 1992 sequel to the blockbuster Home Alone revisits the first film's gimmick by stranding Macaulay Culkin's character in New York City while his family ends up somewhere else. Again, the little guy meets up with colorful people on the margins of society (including a pigeon woman played by Brenda Fricker) and again he gets into a prop-heavy battle with Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern. The latter sequence is even worse than the first film in terms of violence inflicted on the two villains (director Chris Columbus, who also made the first film, can't seem to emphasize the slapstick over the graphic effects of the fight). The best running joke finds a concierge (Tim Curry) at the swank hotel where Culkin is staying trying and failing to prove that the boy is on his own. --Tom Keogh
