Macaulay Culkin, in his most popular role, plays Kevin McCallister, a poor rich boy from an incredibly large family. In the strangest of events, he was accidentally left behind when the entire family went on a trip to Paris. Kevin, being an 8 year old, thinks that he made his 20+ member family disappear and has a blast! That is until he finds out that a pair of villainous dweebs (played excellently by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern) are trying to rob his house! A fun movie for parents and children to enjoy together even though it is strewn with the occasional mild obscenities.
