Back in 1990, Chris Columbus directed what is arguably America’s favorite non-animated Christmas movie: “Home Alone.”In 2020, he returns to helm America’s 479th favorite Christmas movie: “Christmas Chronicles 2,” which is sadly more in line with his less celebrated films, such as “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief” and “I Love You, Beth Cooper.” It is mercifully not as bad as “Pixels.”What’s weird is that Columbus did not direct the 2018 movie that kicked off this franchise,
