Less horror, more human.

Rating: 7/10 (15 September 2019)

I find it really odd that the parts I found most compelling in this film were the scenes where there were little to no horror elements. When it was just the adults confronting their figurative demons and interacting with each other, I was entertained. That may also have something to do with the fact that horror just isn't my favourite genre. With that being said, Richie's token scene may have been my favourite in the film, and the expansion of his character was done quite nicely. Hats off to Andy Muschietti (sp?). Solid beginning, great ending, and a mediocre middle, with particularly brilliant performances from Bill Hader, James Ransone, & Bill SkarsgÃ¥rd (of course).
