movie review - Gremlins
the journal of Michael Werneburg
twenty-eight years and a million words
Kokubunji, 2021.12.17
I showed the kids this '80s classic movie tonight. I had not realized just how silly and lame it really is. Of course, I haven't seen it since I was the same age The Boy now is, but still... I mean, who made all the gremlins' clothes? Who produced the working gremlin-sized handguns? Some of the dialog, such as the ham-fisted story Pheobe Cates tells of her father dying in the chimney on Christmas eve.
Ah, well.
Not recommended. Avoid.
