Chrismas Carnage With Small Critters

Rating: 10/10 (4 June 2019)

When a father gives his son a Mogwai for Christmas, even after the store owner refuses to sell it, it seems like a good Christmas. However, the cute little critter, Gizmo, soon creates a problem as the three rules get broken, leading to a crazy Christmas that the town of Kingston Falls would never forget.
Gremlins is a great 80's film, but it's not for everyone. As one of the two films that would lead to the creation of the PG-13 rating, it can be scary for younger children, and it does have some moments that indeed push it (like the infamous Gremlin in the microwave). But thankfully, nothing goes too far, as even the gory scenes are tame enough for a PG rating, and the movie does have some comedy to give balance. The movie also has some good characters, from Billy to mean old Mrs. Deagle (who wants to put Billy's dog down, but ends up falling victim to the gremlins), this film is a good watch for older kids and teenagers.
