- The Plaza’s elegance and association with New York wealth make the film an effective hotel advertisement.
- Duncan’s toy-store setting is praised, and nearly the entire returning cast preserves continuity rather than forcing a conspicuous replacement.
- Parenthood makes the airport separation frightening in a new way, though vigilant parents should avoid the situation.
- Curry’s creepy manager and Grinch-to-smile transition are essential, with Clue and Legend as familiar comparisons.
- Kevin’s slowed Talkboy reservation call is ingenious; the reservation clerk is reportedly Columbus’s wife.
- Young Kieran Culkin is especially amusing after his adult performance as Roman in Succession.
- Real pigeons rather than CGI and Williams’s score are affirmative choices, with Jurassic Park illustrating the composer’s range.
- Kevin’s extravagant desserts are amusingly excessive and may be deliberate revenge on his parents through the bill.
