Comic-book character brought to life: "the richest kid in the world," but still a kid at heart (likes baseball, needs friends), with a British manservant called Cadbury, a pet dog called Dollermatian (dollar signs in place of spots), and a philanthropist father who, while amassing $70 billion, has never had to fire a solitary soul, and who conducts himself with the blissful obliviousness of a society swell in a Thirties screwball comedy. In short, escapist fare. The ending, pulling sharply on the leash, calls for Macaulay Culkin to perform some Home Alone-style crime-fighting heroics. Till then, there's nothing actively objectionable about it. Or actively approvable either. With Jonathan Hyde, Edward Herrmann, Christine Ebersole, and John Larroquette; directed by Donald Petrie. (1994) — Duncan Shepherd
