I kind of hated it.

Rating: 4/10 (11 September 2017)

Most of the movie is disjointed "scary" visions every character has to have. It's like there's 4 different scenes, but EVERY character has to have them. "This is what I'm scared of", "this is me getting bullied", "these are some "scary" scenes", "this is me standing up to someone". And then they hit the poor clown with baseball bats and steel rods for half an hour. It was was just boring.
Pennywise wasn't godawful. That's as much as I will compliment him. Tim Curry was better.
Also, holy **** can someone fire the sound editor? EVERY TIME something even mildly paranormal or supposedly scary was happening some moron kept banging a piano, or blowing a trumpet, or whatever instrument made those noises. Can I have a moment to enjoy the creepiness or get unnerved by something first? Damn!
I have no nostalgia attached to the miniseries, but it was better.
