Home Alone 2: Lost in New York

Jay Moore
About this episode

Hailed as “The only movie in the Home Alone Franchise to feature a US President,” we decided to kick of our December Christmas Movie Marathon with the sequel to the iconic millennial Christmas film: Home Alone. This time the writer, director, and cast all reunites to tell the story of Kevin McAllister getting lost again. Does this one hold up to the original, and should you watch it for Christmas 2020? We’ve got those answers and more this week on The VCR Kids.
