Macaulay Culkin’s Home Alone commercial for Google takes over the internet

In the movie, two burglars turn up to rob his house. Initially, Kevin fools them into thinking the family is home. But they discover his ruse and plan to break in. Kevin then employs the use of elaborate booby traps and successfully holds them off until he is rescued.

The point of the advertisement is basically to highlight the wonders of automation. That if only Kevin had Google Assistant at his home, he would have had no trouble in fending off the burglars and Google would have done his job while he lazed on a chair.

The commercial begins with Culkin waking up to find his parents gone. He is then seen asking Google what is on his calendar, and the response comes that he has the house to himself from 8 am to 11 pm.

The ad continues with Kevin jumping on the bed and asking the Google Assistant to set a reminder to clean the sheets. When burglars turn up, he begins ‘Operation Kevin’ and tricks the burglars into thinking that the family is home. The ad ends with the words, “Let Google do it.”
