Synopsis

When mum and dad leave to visit their sick grandmother, the Russell siblings find themselves in the care of their Uncle Buck. Lovably slobbish Buck is a hit with the younger children, but stroppy teen Tia is determined to drive away their unconventional babysitter. The result is a typically fun family comedy from 80s favourite, John Hughes.
