IT....should have been better.

Rating: 4/10 (14 September 2019)

First things first, this is a film but it is not a scary film.
Chapter two was always going to be a hard sell, what with chapter one having children in peril. Which is always scarier than adults.
What didn't help its cause was scenes with laughable cgi where practical special effects would have worked better and turning penny-wise into a drooling cross eyed idiot.
No spoilers but the scene in the flat with Jessica Chastain and the park scene with Bill Hader had the cinema in hysterics. Something that I've never seen before.
The casting was spot on and that is the film's one saving grace.
