'Home Sweet Home Alone' is as charmless as it is pointless

‘Home Sweet Home Alone’ is the ‘Home Alone’ remake that everyone has been dreading. Instead of Kevin, we now follow Max (Archie Yates), a sweet but trouble-making kid, who feels ignored by his exasperated mum, Carol (Aisling Bea), as she tries to hold the fort organising the family Christmas vacation.

But before he can get too upset, he has to become armed and ready as a couple – Pam (Ellie Kemper) and Jeff (Rob Delaney) – try to break in.
