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

 A great Sequel to the Original: Kevin Does it Again! February 15, 2010
Jan Peczkis (Chicago IL, USA)
Our mischievous Kevin is separated from his parents going on a trip once again. This time, he ends up in New York while the rest of the family is in Florida. Having his father's money and credit cards, he stays at a swank hotel. There is a painful scene: The twin towers of the WTC (World Trade Center) are shown, and Kevin views the scenery from the observation deck of one of them.
The two burglars who had once burgled his house have escaped from prison, and are now planning to rob a toy store after closing time on Christmas Eve. But Kevin has other ideas. The robbers get outsmarted and attacked. Then they follow Kevin to an unoccupied relative's home, and the action continues.
As was the case in the first Home Alone, Kevin's life is saved by a marginal character--in this case the pigeon woman. She has long lived a reclusive life owing to the heartbreak of her husband having left her.
Absolutely hilarious from beginning to end!

I purchased this movie for a gift and from what I understand the person that received it was very happy .
 Good product, bad price February 3, 2010
S. Seacat
I bought this for my husband as a Christmas gift last year. The product was great, but the price was pretty high for a used DVD. Wish I had looked around a little more for a better price.

Everything went great with this order. I would highly recommend to buy from this seller.
Home Alone at the Plaza? January 25, 2010
Charlene Freethy (San Francisco, CA)
An excellent Christmas movie combining the young lad Kevin Collins, NYC and 1990's family life. I especially enjoyed the background of the Plaza Hotel and Central Park. The side story of Kevin's friendship with the homeless pigeon-loving lady Maggie is precious and heart warming. For those who enjoy action, there is plenty with the bungling criminals from the first Home Alone attempting to steal the charitable donations of Duncan's Toys for the St. Anne's charity - and Kevin's determination not to let them! Overall, a wonderful movie - especially for children eight to thirteen....
