Satisfying sequel.
Home Alone 2 - Lost in New York is just as delightful and hilarious as the first one. The whole cast returns including Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern who are still causing trouble but this time on the streets of the Big Apple. Culkin has great comic timing, too bad he had a hard time finding roles after this one. I enjoyed this sequel and mostly I hate sequels, I highly recommend this family film, enjoy!

Post 9/11, this movie is haunting
I would agree with most of the reviews already posted. However, one must realize this movie was released in 1999. It is very haunting because the World Trade Center encompasses an entire scene, where Macauley Culkin's character goes up to the viewing platform and looks down on the city. Very, very sad. Makes 9/11 seem so surreal.
Also, for young children, this movie can be scary for another reason: they are afraid that they too might be abandonded by their parents. Our youngest son was about five at the time and we had to reassure him that he would never, ever be forgotten or abandoned.
For older kids, they see the slapstick comedy of the bad guys and don't realize that this brand of humor can hurt. Our older boy who was about eight at the time went through a few days of pummeling his little brother in one way or another.
Other than these issues, it was a typical kid movie that was fun and predictable.

Mean spirited movie, and NOT in anamorphic format!
We just watched the first movie last week, which after all these years, I still found to be enjoyable. This one is more of the same, but contains a certain mean spiritedness that wasn't present in the original. The villians are muderous this time, making it very clear that they intend to stangle 11-year-old Kevin and dispose of his corpse in the river. They are so confident that his life will end soon that they share their plans with him to rob a toy store as they're marching him toward the water. Funny... huh? The lads clever pranks cause serious head trauma, nails being driven into skulls and third degree burns. The parents in the movie go beyond being scatter brained and move straight into child neglect. CPS would be knocking on their door so fast! The biggest problem with this movie is that it just isn't all that funny. My daughter was howling through the first film and barely chuckled during this one.
I was disappointed to find that this is letterboxed and not in anamorphic format. In other words, you must enlarge it to fill your widescreen television.

Good, but not as good as the first one.....
The Home Alone movies are, and probably forever will be Christmas Classics!
The plot of Home Alone 2 is Kevin (Maculay Culkin) becomes seperated from his family around Christmas time one again. Only this time, he's home alone....in New York City! Apparently, by some confusion at the airport Kevin boards the wrong plane, and instead of going to Miami with his family, he finds himself alone in New York.
Now, a normal 10 year old boy would be scared, and explain to the adults working at the airport that he's borded the wrong plane, and become seperated from his family. However, Kevin is no ordinary boy, especially since he's got his Dad's personal travel bag with his Credit cards and money! To make the situation more interesting, the Wet bandits from the first Home Alone movie (Marv and Hary) have escaped from prison, and they are hiding from the police in.......New York city.
Once you see both of these factors come into play in the movie, you know it's only a matter of time before Kevin crosses paths with Marv, and Harry. When it does, the fun and excitement commences!
I agree with the other reviews that stated this movie has a bit much violence and might not be suitable for the really young audience. I believe I was 10 years old when this movie first came out, but I never seen it at the theatre. My mother rented it, so I was probably 11 whenever I first saw the movie.
Some good things to look for in this movie is the scenes where Kevin is running around New York. Time square, Rockerfeller center, the Plaza Hotel are just a few. The camera shots and angles of certain parts of New York were beautiful, and of course, there is one scene I'm sure that will at least "touch" everyone in some way. I'm talking about the scene where Kevin approaches the Twin Towers, and is left amazed at their size in person. Even better is the next scene where Kevin is on top of the twin towers, and is taking pictures of the view over New York city.

A christmas movie sequel...
A good sequel to Home Alone. How do they keep leaving this kid? Full of funny antics that leave you laughing. It is a good thing that the bad guys from #1 made it to New York just in time to get some revenge while Kevin is there also! Cute movie I can recommend for all family members.
