THIS WEEKS MOVIE REVIEW

This weeks movie is the 1989 Horror classic " Uncle Buck " , starring John Candy, Amy Madigan, Jean Louisa Kelly and Gaby Hoffmann, and co-stars Macaulay Culkin, Jay Underwood and Laurie Metcalf.
Bob Russell (Garrett M. Brown), his wife Cindy (Elaine Bromka), and their three kids, 15-year-old Tia (Jean Louisa Kelly), 6-year-old Maizy (Gaby Hoffman), and 8-year-old Miles (Macaulay Culkin), had recently moved from Indianapolis to Chicago due to a job promotion. Tia resents her parents because she thought everyone was happy enough where they were already living and that they prefer their jobs to the family.
Late one night, Cindy and Bob receive a phone call from Indianapolis. Cindy's father has just suffered a heart attack. Cindy and Bob make plans to leave Chicago immediately to be with him. Upon being told the news, Tia angrily accuses Cindy of moving away from her father and says that she would have a heart attack too if her family moved away from her, slamming the door in her mother's face.
Bob suggests they ask his brother Buck (John Candy) to watch the kids, but Cindy rejects because she doesn't feel comfortable around him .

Cindy's instincts are correct ........
