An American Christmas comedy/adventure film, Lost in New York is the second entry in producer John Hughes' Home Alone series. Macaulay Culkin reprises his role as Kevin, as do Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern as the 'Wet Bandits.' Directed by Chris Columbus.
"Instead of flying to Florida with his folks, Kevin ends up alone in New York, where he gets a hotel room with his dad's (John Heard) credit card - despite problems from a clerk (Tim Curry) and meddling bellboy (Rob Schneider). But when Kevin runs into his old nemeses, the Wet Bandits, he's determined to foil their plans to rob a toy store on Christmas eve." (Time Out London)

"Under Columbus’ careful direction Culkin proves an effective Everykid, while Kevin’s parents and relatives remain as cartoonish as the villains, with Pesci and Stern hamming it up as the Wile E. Coyotes to Culkin’s Roadrunner."

Time Out""Home Alone 2" may be lazily conceived, but it is staged with a sense of occasion and a lot of holiday cheer."

The New York Times"Call me hardhearted, call me cynical, but please don't call me if they make "Home Alone 3.""

Roger Ebert
Roger Ebert"Less a sequel, more a virtual remake of Home Alone, this "John Hughes production" follows the same route as its money-spinning predecessor, wheeling out the well-worn precocious-kid-on-his-todd scenario with scant regard for originality."
