Plot Summary
The popular and cheerfully malevolent creatures are back in this hilarious adventure which reunites most of the original cast and creative team of its 1984 smash hit prequel, directed by Joe Dante ("Innerspace," "Twilight Zone: The Movie") and produced by Academy Award, Emmy and Golden Globe-winner Steven Spielberg ("Munich," "War of the Worlds"). Sweethearts Billy and Kate leave Kingston Falls for the big city where they meet up once again with their Mogwai friend, Gizmo. Hilarity reigns when a series of accidents creates a new generation of Gremlins and Billy, Kate and Gizmo must once again use all their ingenuity to outwit the little creatures and prevent another comic catastrophe. Filled with enough sight gags, celebrity cameos and crazy tributes to old musicals to satisfy any movie lover, right down to the now infamous closing credits.

Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Speaks to the gleeful hell-raising monster in each of us, and it speaks with much more verve, cleverness and good humor than the film on which it is based. Add this to the very short list of sequels that neatly surpass their predecessors.
Fresh: An hilarious sequel featuring equal parts creature slapstick for the small fry and satirical barbs for adults.
Fresh: This uninhibited and uproarious monster bash, directed by Joe Dante, is more quick-witted and ironic than the original; it sets forth a savvy, slaphappy agenda before the opening credits and follows it straight through to the end, and even beyond.
Rotten: For a good hour it's less like a wild-spirited comedy than a '60s Disney film with Dean Jones or Fred MacMurray.
Customer Reviews
Comedic Masterpiece
Besides the mediocre ending, this movie is pure humorous ingenuity without lulls. Highly recommended to fans of horror spoofs.
Utter nonsense!
I enjoyed the first one. If you liked the first one; then stay away from this crap. I couldn't even finish this ignorant, and horrible excuse for a movie. Fire everyone , and anyone associated with this garbage.
