Another Scott Sumner recommendation coming in hot here. I grew up in the Home Alone era and have always had a deep love for slapstick. This movie, which I would label as a comedy of errors with a heavy dose of slapstick, moves at a moderate pace without being frantic. It also leans into scenes that might today be considered as going on too long for modern audiences. Many modern viewers may struggle with this one if they lack patience. Also, the style of the penthouse at the hotel is a style I see often in movies from this era, but looks so strange and tawdry.
