Decent adaptation

Rating: 7/10 (8 September 2019)

This was a good film! It wasn't as good as the first or as scary, but the film does a good job of exploring in depth of the losers' club again! Here are some pros and cons:
Pros: the acting is good. Casting choices are execellent. Love how they being the young losers' club back! Some scary ass moments for sure. Pacing is good for a 169 min. flick (2 hours 49 minutes if you don't know at the top of your head). Cinematography is excellent (especially for the flashback scenes).
Cons: It feels more jumpscarey than the 1st film. Not all the way through, but for me it was noticeable. CGI was good for one scene in particular, but in the rest that follows, it can be a bit noticeable that these are definitely digital effects that look a little fake for some people. There's a certain dynamic that could've been explored more; which I won't spoil for the people who haven't seen the film, for those that have might know what I'm talking about.
Not as good as the first, but if you got almost 3 hours to spare, I say check it out.
