It shines

Rating: 9/10 (12 September 2017)

There are two basic reasons I went to see this movie. First is because it is a Steven King adaption and in this case I would say a very good one. The other reason is because Finn Wolfward (can't wait to see him in Stranger Things 2) is among the cast of young leads and I would say he stands out the most. It's good that they stayed quite loyal to the book and produced an R rated film rather then a toned down version which would ruin the whole thing in my opinion. Strong scary scenes, good chemistry between the kids and generally a satisfactory effort. Maybe one of the movies of the year and maybe worth viewing a second time.
