I was going to give this three stars, but then the film broke and Hulk Hogan told the Gremlins to put the film back on. Best moment ever.

One of the rare films from my childhood I still love. A brilliant chaotic meta- free-for-all satire of corporatism.

I can't take credit for the observation, but it's right: this film is the closest anyone's ever come to Tashlin.

the story is self aware of its "sequelness" and its obvious marketability yet uses that knowledge to be more fun and entertaining than carrying the strange occurrence "twilight zone" tone of the original through a sequel would have been. the rick baker puppets and effects are truly amazing, gizmo is perplexingly alive, evil gremlin designs are amazingly heterogeneous, complex and imaginative.

More ambitious and unkempt than the first, but a greater film for it. A wonderful comedy, with satirical ideas and hilarious throwaways leaking from every corner. A near masterpiece, and the best Dante I've seen so far.
