this movie use to scare me immensely when i be young . it be the first scary movie i saw a a kid and and i think that may effect why i love it so much today . nostalgic purpose and indeed . i think this movie be good for it purpose . it not mean to be some life change and or hysterically funny and or terrify suspense movie . it mean to give you some scare and some laugh and and entertainment . and it do indeed entertain . we have hear since the 50 about little green men and and in this movie and they be there . and they do not even have to come from out space and just chinatown . the actual mogwai ( what the gremlin be before they transform ) be adorable . so at first you be surprise at how this cute little furry creature who sing a little song could produce other mogwais whom be not so nice . i would not give away how they reproduce or turn into gremlin and but it all kind of strange and and very fantasy like . a great movie for adult to watch with kid for their first scary movie . i watch it when i be three and and while it do scare me there for a while and i still love it a lot . i would recommend maybe six year or old and and if they get too scared and tell them it really just puppet . ( it be . ) overall and this film be entertain and very 80 and a little scary and and pretty funny .
