Great Scenes in Search of a Story

Rating: 6/10 (9 April 2020)

It's difficult to make a great adaption of Stephen King's novels. Mostly because what's on the page can often come across as silly on the big screen. IT is one of the better adaptions. The acting is fantastic. They perfectly cast the child actors. Pennywise is truly terrifying, as portrayed here. Taken scene by scene, there is little to fault. However, IMO, there isn't much of a story. I struggled to find a connective tissue from beginning to end. Definitely worth a watch, but from a storytelling standpoint, it's just okay.
