Fantastic Companion Piece

Rating: 9/10 (9 September 2019)

It: Chapter Two is not as scary as the first entry, but it is not intended to be. As a stand-alone film, there is plenty to like, but I can see why some complain about its length.
The casting director is the biggest star. Skarsgard has more to do and displays his versatility even more as Pennywise shifts into various forms. The adult actors are fantastic as well.
My biggest complaint would be some shoddy CGI at times, but it was not bad enough to take me out of the movie.
Though good on its own, chapter two is even better as a companion.
I cannot wait to see the 5+ hour supercut using all of the footage (and possibly new stuff) that Muschetti has teased.
