Very disappointing

Rating: 3/10 (19 September 2017)

Settled down for a night of scares, expecting to be watching most of the film from behind my hands when the introduction early in the film to Pennywise from the sewer was probably the best part of the whole film! From there on it shifted very fluidly between horror and comedy. I really did think I was watching a new Goonies film. By the end of the film I was thorough disappointed.
On a positive note, I thought Bill Skarsgard played a good Pennywise; a little endearing even!
I'm sure I'm missing some deep, hidden meaning the film is trying to portray about feeding our fear, coming of age etc etc. but nope, didn't get it.
