Good movie and good entertainment.

Rating: 9/10 (11 July 2018)

I've been reading reviews here, mostly negative, and I have to put In my two cents worth. Lighten up! It's a movie! If your a Stephen King purist, keep in mind, a movie can't go in detail like a novel. They have time constraints. I've seen the mini series and this is the same, but different. On its own, without referencing the book, it's a very good movie. A killer clown, which is always freaky, and bullied kids who do battle with it. These child actors did a very good job, and the actor playing penny wise was brilliant. It's good entertainment "based" on the novel. For those of you hung up on bashing Hollywood or "American audiences"and our "fascination with violence,or just don't like the horror genre, lighten up or don't go to the movies. Stick with something safe, like reading or watching the grass grow. Too often these reviews become someone's soap box about bigoted stereotypes, and not about the relevant issue, movie itself and how it's presentation.
