Zach Galligan, the star of the first Gremlins, is back, along with Phoebe Cates, his girlfriend from the first film. They're both working in an ultramodern skyscraper owned by a Donald Trump clone (a hilarious John Glover). Galligan's furry little buddy is captured by a mad scientist, who not only helps it multiply, but invests the nasty, scaly offspring with intelligence and the ability to talk. (Watch for the one that has Tony Randall's voice.) What follows is imaginative mayhem that spoofs old movies, modern television, and the conveniences of postmodern technology. In some ways, the sequel is even more inventive and laughter-inducing than the original. --Marshall Fine

4 out of 5 stars Excellent fun!   October 29, 2008
Very very entertaining film with some great gags. The brains gremlin is particularly good. Very funny!


3 out of 5 stars A sequel that wasn't needed but I find ok at best.   June 14, 2008

I'm stuck somewhere in the middle with this one. I don't like it too much but I definitely don't hate it. This sequel is much less darker than its predecessor. The original Gremlins was down right violent at times but still maintained a bit of its comedy nature. Gremlins 2 is all comedy and seems to be more of a parody of itself. In fact, it parodies several things.

Some of the characters from the original reprise their roles and I found them to be very welcomed. The story was stale but the movie was still fun due to the gremlins wild antics. I would say this one is more towards kids than the original. Those looking for some serious horror only, shouldn't even bother with this one.



3 out of 5 stars Pretty cute   May 9, 2008
The kids will enjoy it. I liked the first one better and actually so did my son. He said there wasn't enough of Gizmo in this one.


4 out of 5 stars Funny Stuff   April 16, 2008
They are back. Those ideous creatures this time with more spunk. As a science experiment goes wrong alot more gremlins with many more powers and abilities. You will love it more than the first,.


4 out of 5 stars Gremlins 2   February 9, 2008
I liked Gremlins better than Gremlins 2, but my grandsons liked this one just as much as the first one.
