Gremlins 2: The New Batch

Gremlins 2 is packed with laughs, special effects, and hundreds of movie references. Look closely to a lot of the background actions and one liners that come up in the movie. There are several references to famous movies that you might not catch the first time. Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Marathon Man, 42nd Street, Batman, and many others. The entire movie is one big laugh. A great movie to watch and take nothing serious.

This one has significantly better effects than the previous and Gremlins are more realistic and scary. From the technical quality point of view, it is definitely a better movie. But it is also a completely different movie and because of taste differences, many will disagree with me on which one is better. While the first movie has a somewhat serious storyline, tells the scary tale with some comic reliefs, the second movie is more parody to the first one than it is its sequel. Yes, the storyline picks up where the first movie left, but the tone of the film is completely different. It is not an '80s light horror type of the movie anymore, it reminds more of the "Scary Movie" type of film. It is fast, fun, full of pranks and references to famous fantasy movies and characters, like Batman, Wicked Witch of Oz, and many more. The first one has a much better story, but this one is better produced and more fun. 8/10

Spoilers herein. Speilberg gets what he deserves in this one, and it is worth seeing just for that. Here is a movie about movies that any real enthusiast will love. That it involves creepy muppets is just incidental. Circumstances contrive to have a cable network taken over by puppets. (There is a tacit understanding here that everyone knows they are puppets.) These puppets take various stages and act out various movie cliches, always jokingly. Along the way is a "vampire" reporter, playing to his audience as the hidden annotators to this do. Almost every woman here is redheaded (except the legacy of Phoebe). Wonder what that means? Ted's Evaluation -- 3 of 4: Worth watching.

gremlins 2 is not a horror movie like the original kind of was, but it's funnier, and more entertaining than the original in my opinion. gremlins 2 is full of movie in-jokes, and all kinds of other goofy stuff. i just believe this movie provides more entertainment than the original did. i wish they'd make a 3rd gremlins movie. all in all gremlins 2 is great fun! i give gremlins 2: the new batch *** out of ****
