IT is horrific...

Rating: 4/10 (11 September 2019)

...but not in the way you probably want.

The runtime is waaaaaaaaaay too long. I don't mind a long movie, if it's engaging. Chapter Two has a lot of scenes that could have been removed to trim down the runtime. However, the movie would have benefited from the same length, but with scenes that had more "meat" and minimal "filler."

Too much comedy (where scenes probably weren't meant to be "funny.")

Too much time with flashbacks (as each character finds their specific item). On a side note: How did the characters determine which item was the correct one?

Goofy special effects. (De-aging, monsters, fortune cookie scene, old lady, baby clown, etc.)

Why is it that most of the characters that moved to other locations forgot about the events from 27 years ago, but the guy that committed suicide remembered?

Not enough investment in the older characters.

The method for "killing" Pennywise at the end was very stupid. Ugh!

Note: I have not read the book. I saw the mini-series, but it's been awhile and I forget most of it. I saw the other movie that came out a few years ago and really enjoyed it. I was looking forward to Chapter Two. However, I was horribly disappointed.
