The Gremlins are back, and this time, they've taken control of a New York City media mogul's high-tech skyscraper.
A sequel that is better than the original ups the ante on action and mayhem, but with a tighter script and more inspired humor.
Halliwell**: "A sequel more entertaining than the original, stuffed with in-jokes for movie buffs."
Maltin***: "Not so much a horror film as a goofy sendup of itself, this sequel turns the slimy creatures loose in N.Y.C. Filled with gags, movie in-jokes, satiric barbs, and gratuitous cameo appearances. Glover is especially funny as a Domald Trump/Ted Turner type, and Lee is a delight as a genetic scientist. Be sure to stay with this through the closing credits."
