James Ransone is the shining star of the second act. "The ending sucked."

Rating: 6/10 (6 September 2019)

Chapter 2 may be considered entertaining for those who still haven't read the novel but for us who have it was just 'ok'. We were promised It's origins/flashback scenes that never came so I hope there's a Director's Cut. Henry Bowers was never charged with the murderers of the other children. That storyline was butchered and now Patrick is just driving him around? What?! I just said alrighty and tried not to overthink it. Audra never showed up to take that final bike ride and Pennywise's final form was meh. Give us the giant world eating spider we waited for. And no Maturin either. Total letdown. However Hader & Ransone were the cast standouts. More so Ransone as adult Eddie stole every scene he was in. Hollywood needs to take notice of this guy's talent. Eddie being my favorite character in the novel & Ransone did him justice. All in all it just fell a bit flat but as the running gag stated, "the ending sucked."
