Little froggy-eyed Elijah Wood has just lost his mother, and to make matters worse has to go stay with relatives during his father's two-week business trip. What's worse about that is that raspberry-lipped little Macaulay Culkin (Home Alone, Home Alone 2), in the part of Wood's cousin, is attempting to "stretch" himself as an actor: smoke cigarettes, say "fuck," try to kill off his family members one by one. His placid Buddha grin as he watches a multi-car crackup on the freeway (caused by him) does not speak well for his range. Suspense, if that's what it's supposed to be, isn't intensified by the cookie-dough flatness and pallidness of the image. With Wendy Crewson, Daniel Hugh Kelly, David Morse; directed by Joseph Ruben. (1993) — Duncan Shepherd
