A solid and very entertaining follow up

Rating: 9/10 (14 September 2019)

I really enjoyed IT part 1 and Part 2, there was more humour in Part 2 which for me is why I think Part 2 is better.
But irrespective of whether you prefer part 1 or part 2 the film as a whole was a really great adaptation of a complex novel by stephen King.
Part 2 was well paced and the laughs and screams was echoed throughout the movie theatre.
My only critique is the ending, and I know that many other reviewers has mentioned this. I have to given the high quality of the rest of the movie the makers could made a better ending..... and both the TV adaptation with Tim Curry and the big screen versions shyed away from the ending in the book which was disappointing but admittedly probably difficult to pull off.
Anyway apart my gripe about the ending, my Wife and I thoroughly enjoyed IT Part 2.... this was not just a 2 dimensional horror movie, it had depth and the script in terms of the character interaction and casting was Top notch.
IT part 2 really shows that horror movies can be more than just cheap jumps and shocks..... and I can finally forgive Stephen King for the terrible 90's TV adaptation of the Tommy Knockers!!
