Sarah (7800 KP) rated Gremlins (1984) in Movies
Dec 24, 2019
Brilliant
I appear to be having a bit of a run on Joe Dante films at the moment, but it would be rude not to watch Gremlins over Christmas.
This film is so much fun from start to finish. It's everything you'd want and more from a Christmas horror film - laughs, some festive christmas spirit and a whole host of gremlin gore and wacky deaths. Considering this was made in 1984 the special effects with the Gremlins are surprisingly impressive and very inventive. The scenarios that they get themselves into are hilarious. Admittedly considering it's now 35 years old there are parts that look a little dated, but overall this is such a brilliant and entertaining film and definitely a classic at Christmas.

Keeps you guessing
Brilliant cast
Not your usual storyline
Absolutely brilliant, could not recommend more!
I find with a lot of shows that it's easy to predict what the story is leading up to, but not with this one. It is unlike any other series I have watched and keeps you on your toes. Multiple times I thought I'd figured out where it was going but OH NO, another twist gets thrown in.
I cannot wait for the next series after the cliff hanger series 1 ended on. I'm sure it will be just as thought provoking and exciting as the first.
(If you like to read, I think people who like Manifest would enjoy reading 'The Three' by Sarah Lotz)

Its silly. Its meant to be silly.
The special effects are awful. They are meant to be awful.
Just suspend disbelief for 2 hours and buckle in.
Brilliant, funny yet scary film following a special ops team that get stuck in the Scottish highlands and soon find themselves being hunted by werewolves.
Sean Pertwee is outstanding in this film.

Amazing Sfx
Great action scenes
SpiderMan at his best
A great film that looks and sounds brilliant. Real eye opening action scenes, wonderful SFX as he swings his way through Manhatten. Add a very good cast, especially Dafoe in a well suited role. This is still my favourite SpiderMan film of all of them to date.

Both action packed and funny
Interesting plot
Best super hero film of the year. Sorry Wonder Woman
Such an enjoyable film. Funnier then is should be, with some great action set pieces. Plus Thor vs Hulk, and there bromance. Have a podcast review on my blog.

Incredibly beautiful show, not to be missed!
Another show that is too beautiful for words. This show touches on everything.. loss, alcoholism, obesity, adoption, racism and most importantly, family. Be prepared with your tissues as there is no way to watch an episode without spilling some tears! Incredible cast, brilliant writers, absolutely not to be missed!

Loved this book! It has everything you could want from a thriller; fast paced, excellent story line, brilliant characters and great setting. Scarily, in the world in which we live, I can see this not being beyond the realms of reality!! Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest and unbiased review.

While the setting and much of the technology surrounding the mysteries have been modernized, the essence of Sherlock Holmes remains the same. He’s brilliant, and he’s passionate about solving the mysteries. However, he’s also a functioning sociopath

Enjoyable, wonderfully gruesome
The contrast between the main protagonists McGrey and Frey is as curious as Holmes and Watson. One a stuffy Scotland Yard detective another a superstitious, grimy local senior police officer. Using music was a brilliant idea to tie the maccabre altogether. While it definitely feels like part of a series, it's still a good start.
