About the film
There's a new kid on the block.
What it’s about
Alex Pruitt is nine and stuck at home with chicken pox while his family is away. A mix-up at the airport puts a top-secret microchip, hidden inside a toy car, into his hands. Four professional spies have tracked the chip to his neighborhood and will do anything to get it back. Alex must defend his house against these dangerous intruders.
What hooks you
Alex D. Linz was chosen for the lead from over a hundred boys, beating out Elijah Wood. The film moves the action to after Christmas, unlike the first two installments. Olek Krupa and Rya Kihlstedt play two of the determined spies. The film received a Razzie nomination for Worst Remake/Sequel.
Who it’s for
It suits viewers who like slapstick comedy and child-versus-adult battles, and those who enjoy lighthearted crime capers with family-friendly tension. It also appeals to those who liked the earlier Home Alone films but are open to a new setting and characters.
