Home Alone 2: Lost in New York/My New Gun/Bad Lieutenant/The Efficiency Expert

Gene Siskel - Host: I gave a marginal thumbs down to the original "Home Alone", I REALLY don't like those burglars. This time, I appreciated Macaulay Culkin more, he has a special gift, he is positively charming, but this time too, I felt the burglar scenes were even more annoying. Again, marginal thumbs down for me on "Home Alone 2", and I know that every ten year old kid in America is gonna hate me for it.
