Chris Henson 2

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is a movie about a young boy named Kevin who is separated from his parents at an airport.  It was, of course, made in 1992 and directed by Chris Columbus. While his parents’ flight leaves for Miami, Florida, he accidently gets onto a plane that is going to New York.  He has plenty of cash and credit cards so that he can survive, but he runs into the two men from the first Home Alone movie, who have somehow escaped from prison.  The two men are named Harry and Marv.  Similar to the first movie, the story takes place during the winter.  His parents wanted to take their vacation for Christmas.  The movie focuses on Kevin’s plan to prevent Harry and Marv from robbing a toy store called Duncan’s Toy Chest, where owner is planning on giving the money made to a children’s hospital.

The Home Alone 2: Lost in New York is a heartwarming movie that contains good morals and strong family values.  The young boy gives children watching examples of what is right versus what is wrong.  The movie also gives its audience of children a lesson on how they can impact the world around them.  Although Kevin is very young, similar to children in the audience, he is able to do a good deed for a toy shop.  The idea of family comes in toward the end of the movie when Kevin’s mother becomes frantic upon realizing that she has lost her son.  The moral to this story is that even though there was a fight among the family in the beginning of the film, that does not change the fact that parents love their children.
