Viewing Notes

Not as good a film as the first, but wacky and a hell of a lot of fun. While the first could be argued as a straight up horror flick, GREMLINS 2 is a straight up creature feature comedy with a smidgen of social commentary on corporate America.

I’ve actually watched this one much more than the original as a kid.
