Plots(1)
A band of international crooks has hidden a military computer chip inside a toy car, but an airport mix-up lands it in the hands of whiz-kid Alex Pruitt (Alex D. Linz) who's home alone with the chicken pox in a quiet Chicago suburb. When the criminals zero in on Alex's house with their high-tech gadgetry, madness and mayhem kick into high gear as the pint-sized hero defends himself against the bumbling bad guys -armed with an outrageous array of ambushes and booby traps! (official distributor synopsis)

Yeah, what an adorable kid. And the remote controlled car, that was cool! And the four adult morons falling all the time, ha-ha-ha. Really great!

I wouldn’t have believed that it could be possible to find a more unlikeable kid than Macaulay Culkin…

As a little cheeky bugger, I quite liked it, however, after watching it now after all these years, I feel queasy.

A group of adults, acting like mental patients, chase after a remote control car with an incredibly long range. It goes through walls and I don't know what else. Yes, the plot is in contrast to the classic two movies with Macaulay Culkin, which unfortunately doesn't change the fact that it's quite stupid. One wouldn't even believe that the screenwriter was also John Hughes. The actors here are terrible, all of them, and only the presence of young Scarlett Johansson brings some joy.
