THIS IS NOT A SEQUEL!!!! GET IT IN YOUR HEADS!!!!

Rating: 10/10 (10 September 2019)

Seriously, to start off, the amount of people coming on here leaving reviews and saying that Chapter 2 is a sequel to 2017's IT, get it in your heads, Chapter 2 (the title gives it away) is NOT a sequel. Hence the reason it is called CHAPTER 2. When you read a book and finish chapter one, do you think 'I will have to read the sequel next'? No, you don't. You carry on reading and move on to chapter 2 as it's part of the same story. IT Chapter 2 is the second half of one whole story. Not a sequel.
Secondly, people complaining about the run time, you should have known how long the movie was before going to see it. It is not hard to either come on imdb and check or simply look at the difference in show times at the cinema. Additionally, if you had any idea or knowledge of the novel by Stephen King, you would understand that this is an epic storyline. The book is over a thousand pages. This story could have been made in to a 10 or 20 hour TV series easily and would still be full of scenes that didn't get anywhere near 2017's Chapter 1 or 2019's Chapter 2.
To summarise, if you are going to read and take the side of all these low scoring reviews, do the film makers and Stephen King fans a favour. Just stay away from both movies. They are not for you. The film makers have done a tremendous job in bringing the story of Pennywise the Clown and the Losers Club to our screens while staying as true as possible to Stephen Kings novel (seriously, if you have read IT by Stephen King, you will agree).
If you go in to this movie thinking it's going to be a fright fest, you are going to be disappointed. Don't get me wrong, there are a few decent jump scares here and there but as with all Stephen King stories, they are about characters, people, struggle and resolution.
Thank you to the film makers for bringing this to our screens.
