Wick's Review

Summary - Very Good 3.5

Gremlins remains amusing all these decades later. Written and directed by Chris Columbus and Joe Dante respectively, it feels like a Stephen Spielberg hyper American movie, set in small town America on Christmas. No surprise then that Spielberg was the executive producer.

Finally turns into a horror movie about an hour in when the gremlins become like malevolent kittens.

Acting - Great 4.0

Zach Galligan and Phoebe Cates are charming and cute as the kid stars.

Howie Mandel voiced Gizmo, the main gremlin.
