Hal Hinson, also of "The Washington Post", praised Columbus' direction and Culkin's performance.

To use a "Home Alone" analogy (proven to be the most effective of all analogy types), it’s like how in the first Home Alone, Kevin had no choice but to protect his house, but in "", he went out of his way to lure the robbers into a house of traps. The premise is shoehorned into working rather than organically feeling like the right thing to do." Matar wrote how Hickey being prevented from spending time with his grandson "doesn’t quite work because the problems between Hank and Buzz feel vague and undefined." In the first installment, Matar wrote, the character traits (like Britta's liberalism) of each member shone through.

Having recently moved, Sean and Clare have coffee with their new neighbors. The neighbors, Robert and Samantha have a teenage son, Kevin, whom they have home-schooled. Sean and Clare begin inquiring about the homeschooling, and the numerous manners in which Robert and Samantha have replicated a full high school experience within their home, going as far as hazing, bullying, ostracizing and giving out detentions, are revealed. They believe the experience should be as awkward as possible, like "real high school". This includes throwing parties that exclude Kevin, Samantha instigating Kevin's "first kiss" and Robert revealing romantic feelings for Kevin. Visibly disturbed, the neighbors end up meeting Kevin, who says he is going out and gives them the impression that all is fine: until he reveals a doll made of a mop with Samantha's face on it, referring to the doll as his girlfriend.
