CHAPTER 2 WITH AN IMPRESSIVE ENDING

Rating: 7/10 (14 September 2019)

POSITIVE (PROS)
After two years of waiting for the second movie of the franchise, It Chapter 2 has come to cinemas. I expected more horror than the first one and it did fulfilled it. The story of how the first movie scenes which were connected to the actions developed in the second movie are well screenplayed by the team.
The actors acted in the film can be seen as they well known studied about their characters in order to be connected to its audience from the first chapter. For example, Eddie's fear on helping his friends when pennywise strikes them. In addition, Richie's human sense that made audience engaged to the character to his hilarious dialogues and making fun of his friend. That's brought life of the characters of the child actors to the adulthood. James McAvoy as Billy has a standing ovation and the cast chosen are reasonable for the movie demands.
Horror sequences are well made and make the audience to the edge of their seats especially the arrival of Pennywise to hunt the main characters in the movie.
The movie also focuses the spirit of a team of friendship that represents their togetherness. The scenes in the movie will make the audience to remember their childhood lives and to be together with their old friends. This could be another plus point for the movie to be more emotional and message giving movie besides horror.

NEGATIVE (CONS)
The run time of the movie is a minor con that could be minimize by avoiding several scenes in the movie sequences. The dragging of the screenplay that made the movie to be 2 hours 50 minutes which is longer than the first chapter of 2 hours 26 minutes. Scenes such as the horror sequences of the Losers meeting point which is the chinese restaurant can be cut to shrink down the time.
The ending of the movie where the Losers make pennywise to be weak in order to kill it can be improvised as the larger half clown-insect legged horrifying pennywise shoudln't be dead by only listening to the negative words of shringking him to be small in order to kill it. This is because pennywise is a powerful character and its capabilties. The ending of killing it can be done as the Losers may have weapons to kill it and take its heart instead of saying and cursing it with just words to make it small and easy to be killed.
CONCLUSION
It: Chapter is a wonderful ending of the franchise and it still makes a wonderful box office collection. It is a fun-filled, horrifying and more hilarious minor scenes that brings you a whole package to the audience.
