HOME ALONE 2: LOST IN NEW YORK

Now I'm aware that Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is the exact same plot as the first Home Alone, and not to mention how silly it seems that these folks would leave their kid behind, but come on, this movie was all in good fun. It still has me constantly laughing 'till this day, I think if you loved the first Home Alone, I'm sure that you'll just naturally love this one as well. Not too many folks are just giving it a good chance. I mean, the Wet Bandants are back and they are just as funny as ever! I think this house that Kevin set up was actually in some ways a little more fun than the first because of the traps he was able to set. Not to mention the Plaza Hotel plot was so great and fun to watch. Kevin and his family are heading down to Florida for Christmas this year, but when Kevin gets mixed up at the air port and gets on the wrong flight, he ends up in New York. Instead of complaining or panicking, he just plain enjoys it. He goes on the ultimate tour with his father's bag of money and credit cards and cons himself into the Plaza Hotel claiming he's there with his dad. But the Wet Bandants who have now re-named themselves as the Sticky Bandants are in New York as well and are planning on stealing all the money from a toy store that is going to be given to the children's hospital. But Kevin is going to make sure that they don't mess around with the kids and has set his uncle's abandoned apartment up for a fun house of traps. Home Alone 2: Lost in New York was an absolute blast. The reason I'm giving it a ten is because I think the rating should be higher. People really need to give this movie a shot. My favorite scene is without a doubt when Marv gets hit in the face with the bricks, also, the scene where the Plaza Hotel managers are asked by Kevin's mom "What kind of idiots do you have working here?!"... the lady just smiles and says "The finest in New York!", it was just too funny! I love this movie and I'm always going to recommend it for a good watch, I think you'll enjoy it if you give it a chance.

If you are like me, and you have a four year old, this is one of those movies that you will watch for years. I got the first one last year around Thanksgiving, and did the same thing with the sequel this year. He loves it, cracked up the whole movie, and wanted to watch it right after. I imagine it will be like the first, where it gets played year round every now and then. But when it gets close to the holiday and snow is on the ground he wants to watch it anytime. So definitely worth buying, or you may end up spending more than it costs renting it every year. I've learned my lesson with Pixar movies. He always wants to watch them, they're good to have. And same with the first two Home Alone movies. You can't go wrong.

I mean, it’s home alone; is a review even necessary. It’s a classic lol

Always loved this movie as a kid.

"Home Alone 2: Lost in New York" is a delightful sequel that captures the magic and humor of the original while introducing a fresh, urban twist. Kevin's adventures in New York City are both hilarious and heartwarming, making it a must-watch during the holiday season. The film's setting in iconic New York landmarks adds a charming backdrop to the story, and the performances, especially by Macaulay Culkin, are engaging and memorable. The blend of comedy, adventure, and holiday spirit makes this movie enjoyable for both children and adults. The quality of the video and audio on this edition is excellent, enhancing the viewing experience. Whether you're revisiting it or watching for the first time, this film is a wonderful addition to any holiday movie collection.

The production of "Home Alone 2" spared no expenses, and the result is that rarity of rarities, a sequel that rivals the original in quality and fun.This review is for the single movie DVD of "Home Alone 2". There's scene selection, captioning, and trailers for "Home Alone 1, 2, and 3". The picture and sound are very crisp. Even though "Home Alone 2" was filmed within a couple of years of the original, I'm impressed that virtually the entire cast is back! Macaulay Culkin as Kevin leads the way, and shows once again that he's one of the screens's top comedic actors. I need to send special kudos to "newcomers" to Kevin's capers Tim Curry and Rob Schneider. They add lots of zip to the hotel world of Kevin. Especially Schneider in his understated comedic support brilliance. So often in other roles on-screen he's bringing the low brow dash of poor taste. He's SO much better here, as a nice guy, an everyman. Great job! Leaving no stone unturned, John Hughes and company even employed six "pigeon wranglers"! Watch for their names in the rolling credits at film's end. Oh; and the family home from the original "Home Alone" is back, too. I don't know about Buzz' tarantula. Not seen on camera this go-round. However, the fuzzy spider may have been napping! That, however, would be tough to do with Uncle Frank's crooning of "Cool Jerk"! (Ironic song choice for Kevin's Uncle, eh?). Anyone who enjoyed "Home Alone" will love this sequal because it stays so true to the original. Highly Recommended!

No issues with streaming the movie. The movie itself was OK but not as good as the first

A classic. Perfect for the holidays to bring the nostalgia.

Die Kevin-Filme sind auch heute noch super sehenswert und können sich auf jeden Fall mit aktuell Produzierten Filmen/Komödien messen. Die Filme gehören für mich zu denen, die auch nach dem 12. mal anschauen nicht langweilig werden und man noch über die lustigen Stellen lachen kann. Zu der Story: Seit Kevin zu Hause vergessen wurde ist ein Jahr vergangen. Es ist wieder Weihnachtszeit und wieder steht eine Reise für die McCallisters an - diesmal nach Florida. Diesmal wird Kevin jedoch nicht vergessen, sondern landet durch eine Verwechselung im falschen Flugzeug. Während seine restliche Familie sich auf nach Florida macht, fliegt Kevin geradewegs nach NYC. Zufällig hat Kevin die Tasche seines Vaters dabei, in der er am Flughafen in Chicago noch etwas gesucht hat. In der Tasche befinden sich reichlich Bargeld, sowie Kreditkarten, sodass Kevin es sich erstmal richtig gut gehen lässt. Mit der Kreditkarte seines Vaters checkt er im Plasa-Hotel ein - einem der teuersten Hotels in NYC - und bezieht kurzerhand eine Suite. Er schaut sich die Stadt ausführlich an und genießt seine "Freiheit", ohne Eltern oder Geschwister bis er zufällig auf die beiden Ganoven stößt, die ein Jahr zuvor das Haus der McCallisters leer räumen wollten. Da sie deswegen im Knast landeten - aus dem sie nun ausgebrochen sind - sind die beiden gar nicht gut auf Kevin zu sprechen und wollen ihn entführen. Kevin gelingt es jedoch, sich ins Haus von Verwandten zu flüchten. Dort fasst er den Entschluss es erneut mit den Gangstern aufzunehmen und verwandelt das Haus - wie schon im Jahr zuvor das seiner Eltern - in eine Festung mit Fallen ohne Ende. Der zweite Teil steht dem ersten in nichts nach. Beide sind absolut top und man kann sie sich jedes Jahr wieder zur Weihnachtszeit (oder auch einfach mal so zwischendurch) ansehen. Ich persönlich habe mir die beiden Filme noch zu Videokassetten-Zeiten (Teil 1 wurde 1990 gedreht, Teil 2 1992) immer und immer wieder ansehen können, ohne dass es langweilig wurde, oder einem der Spaß vergeht. Das ist auch heute noch so, mit dem kleinen Unterschied, dass man jetzt keine Videokassette mehr einlegt, sondern die DVD. Der Film ist ein super Spaß für die ganze Familie. Auch Eltern werden ihn mögen. An vielen Stellen kriegt man sich vor lachen kaum noch ein. Dies ist wirklich eine gute alte Komödien die es noch versteht, die Leute zu unterhalten und zum Lachen zu bringen, nicht wie manche Filme heute, die sich zwar "Komödien" nennen, einem jedoch höchstens ein leises Lächeln entlocken. Glasklare Kaufempfehlung!

Cada año la miramos en casa, toda la familia reunida. Tradición familiar!

Was worried this would be the edited one but was very pleased to see it is the original release, unaltered. This 25th Anniversary Edition was great and my family really enjoyed watching it over the holidays.

Llego en perfectas condiciones lo cual es un alivio considerando como habían llegado antes varias de mis cajas de Blu-ray, vino con su slip cover y con copia digital, al igual que el BD y el dvd y al precio de 170 fue una muy buena compra, se escucha en español y es el doblaje que tanto conocemos
