Home Alone 3 (1997, USA) C-102m. ** D: Raja Gosnell. Starring Alex D. Linz, Olek Krupa, Rya Kihlstedt, Lenny Von Dohlen, Scarlett Johansson. Fairly entertaining but pointless sequel is almost like a remake of the first film. This one offers more painful gags, as a cocky nine-year-old defends his absent family's house against criminals who want to steal a formula, which is in the boy's possession. Written and coproduced by John Hughes.
