Canada Movie Reviews of GremlinsMovie Review: A piece of my childhood on DVD
When it first came out, "Gremlins" was completely underestimated by the studios, who didn't believe that it could be a success. Time (and the box office) proved them wrong, and "Gremlins" turned out to be an 1980's classic. Like me, there are many people who still cherish the memory of those little green monsters that turned Christmas into an orgy of mayhem. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't go beyond there. I must say that, having watched it again recently, many years after its release, it didn't thrill me as it did before, but I bought the DVD because I'm just a nostalgic sap and wanted to have a piece of my childhood in my collection. As for the edition, it didn't pass the test. The picture and sound quality is just a light improvement over the VHS version, and there are very few features. I was very excited when I saw there was a "Behind the scenes" material, but it wasn't a documentary, as I believed, only a text (sorry, folks). At least, the movie has Spanish subtitles. Like I say, I was disappointed, but for all of you who loved this movie, you'll find a place for it in your collection as you once did in your heart. |
