Disappointing film with horrendous language and full of clichés

Rating: 4/10 (15 September 2017)

After hearing about all the critical praise for it and because I like horror films, I decided to give this a try. The teaser didn't look so bad despite this being a remake. What I got was middle school kids bullying, ignorant parents, and children swearing throughout the whole film. All quite common and tiresome in fiction.
Though, I'm not a fan of the violence portrayed in this film, that's not the only problem, though.
I didn't care for any of the characters except possibly the villain Pennywise, he was the one who caused all the action in this film. I just couldn't root for the heroes because I didn't give a crap about them since they were constantly swearing throughout the film. I especially do not like how the language was used unnecessarily.
The only fun parts were pretty much some of the action scenes. They were interesting and kept me on the edge of my seat.
I missed the ending of the film because my mom forced me to leave early for a meeting that I didn't really want to go to and because she thought the movie was over. But there were a lot of previews for it.
I haven't seen the original It so I don't know how this compares to it. But I know that remakes tend to not be as good as the original. So, I recommend Hollywood to stop making remakes to everything.
Just skip this one and go watch Annabelle: Creation instead. Though, it's not great and even though it's grotesque, it's got a lot more likable characters, charming story and less clichés.
