Take on the ultimate powers of all time. Give it your best. You will need all you can give.
What's great about it: Never allow your guard down.
What's not so great: You must not take anything for granted.
The magnificent cinematography and special effects in this film make it worth watching. The plot, characters, and Mayan provenance make this all the more attractive.
What's great about it: Great attention to detail.
What's not so great: Too many films regarding the end of the world.
It is enlightening at least to see the man behind the image. It is a shame that the documentary could not be more thorough about the rest of the Earp family and Doc Holliday.
What's great about it: The real story is finally told.
What's not so great: The real world is not always a thrill per minute.

For those of us who do not seem to be able to get enough of the series.
What's great about it: More of an addictive series.
This movie has an excellent story to impart using inferences from current political circumstances. The only problem with the movie is the unevenness of the plot.
What's great about it: Excellent Sci-fi plot utilizing modern day inferences.
What's not so great: The action in the first part of the movie is so slow it almost puts you asleep.
Those mischievous green terrors are back for seconds in Gremlins 2: The New Batch. Warner has done a very presentable job at making sure this 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen print looks very crisp and clean. Aside of just a smidgen of edge enhancement, this picture appears to boast sharp, detailed colors and well defined black levels. The soundtrack is presented in a newly remastered Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround mix in English, along with a Dolby 2.0 Surround track in English, French and Spanish. The 5.1 mix does a fine job of making sure the soundtrack is crystal clear, though directional effects are rather slim and spotty. All aspects of the soundtrack are free of any hiss or distortion. Also included on this disc are English, French and Spanish subtitles. Warner has gone the extra mile to throw a few extra features on this disc, starting with a commentary track by director Joe Dante and producer Mike Finnell. This is mildly funny track that features multiple stories about the cast, effects and difficulties working with little green puppets. A gag reel of funny flubs is included, as well as an entertaining behind-the-scenes featurette which is a parody of other boring featurettes found on most discs. An ample amount of deleted footage running over 20 minutes is included with optional commentary and allows viewers to see what ended up on the cutting room floor. Finally there is a goofy game called "The Gremlins Files," a theatrical trailer for the film, and a list of the cast and crew members.

An Absolute Gem

This is a very entertaining comedy involving the progression of the Gremlins theme. You owe it to yourself to see this movie.
What's great about it: A comedic romp based on Gremlins.
This special edition re-release of Gremlins is a vast improvement over the original disc. To begin with, the image, which is framed at the original aspect ratio of 1.85:1, shows clear signs of the new digital transfer. Colors are sharp and vibrant (though maybe a little over saturated at times) with blacks that are solid. Overall the immediate impression of the picture is better than would be expected. The sound, which uses the same 5.1 English track from the original release, is certainly good, but never takes advantage of the entire sound field. It's generally centered up front, but is distortion free and produces clear audio. The main difference between releases is obviously the supplemental features. Whereas the first disc was basically movie only, this one has a number of nice features. At the top of the list would have to be two new commentary tracks. The first is enthusiastic and informational with director Joe Dante and actors Zach Galligan, Howie Mandel, and the less heard Phoebe Cates and Dick Miller. The second is a little more technical, but nevertheless entertaining with Dante again, producer Michael Finnell, and special effects artist Chris Walas. The rest of the extras, while good, are less spectacular. Along with ten minutes of deleted scenes with optional commentary is a six-minute featurette with behind-the-scenes shots and interviews, a photo/storyboard gallery, and cast and crew biographies. Rounding this nice package out are three trailers, two for this film and one for the sequel, Gremlins 2: The New Batch.
