Buy This Item Home Alone 2 - Lost in New York by 20th Century Fox  Available from Amazon  $6.98  on 9-23-2008     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! Reader Reviews 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.
