👉 Ellie Kemper, Rob Delaney, Archie Yates
Christmas just wouldn’t be Christmas without a little chaos — and this year, the Mercer household delivers it in spades. In Home Sweet Home Alone 2, the holiday season collides with slapstick mayhem as Max Mercer (Archie Yates), a clever yet mischievous kid with a wild imagination, finds himself accidentally left behind when his family jets off for a holiday getaway. At first, it feels like a dream come true: no rules, no bedtime, and an endless supply of junk food. But Max’s winter wonderland quickly turns into a battlefield when two would-be burglars decide his home is the perfect target.
Pam (Ellie Kemper) and Jeff (Rob Delaney), a down-on-their-luck couple desperate to reclaim a priceless family heirloom, think they’ve planned the perfect break-in. What they didn’t count on was Max — armed with an arsenal of booby traps, gadgets, and holiday hijinks that transform the house into a snowy fortress of doom. From slippery staircases to airborne ornaments, every prank is bigger, louder, and funnier than the last, turning their “simple job” into a never-ending gauntlet of holiday humiliation.
Yet beneath the pratfalls and pandemonium lies a story with heart. Between dodging burglars and engineering his next trap, Max begins to realize that Christmas isn’t about presents or even pranks — it’s about love, family, and belonging. And when the laughter fades, the film delivers a reminder that no matter how wild the season gets, the best gift of all is never being alone.
Packed with festive energy, over-the-top slapstick, and a warm holiday message, Home Sweet Home Alone 2 updates the beloved formula for a new generation. With Archie Yates stepping into the role of pint-sized chaos master and Kemper and Delaney bringing comedic flair to the hapless crooks, it’s a family comedy that proves — once again — at Christmas, kids make the rules.
