A good movie

Earlier this year, I already saw the first installment so I thought I might just as well re-watch this sequel. I'm well aware of the fact that this movie has a rather lame reputation but I always had a weak spot for the damned thing and it is definitely one of my guilty pleasures. Anyway, I don't really get the hate towards this movie as I think that it was actually a decent follow-up. Basically, they kept the same concept but that's a little bit the problem with these creatures, what else can you do with them? In fact, you could say exactly the same thing about the Alien franchise. Anyway, even though the plot was really similar, they slightly changed the tone making it more a comedy this time and, as result, it really stood out from its predecessor which was probably the reason it didn’t get much love but I think it was a good idea. Anyway, in the process,  you get to see a lot of daft versions of these Gremlins, a lot of pop references and even some thoughts about the fact that the whole concept was actually rather silly. Sure, I'll have to admit it, it was all rather random but I still think it is quite entertaining and I would go as far as saying that it is actually rather underrated.
