Absolute garbage!!

Rating: 1/10 (20 September 2019)

I cannot believe all the positive reviews here, they must have seen a completely different movie! This was the only movie we ever walked out of, with no regrets.
We really tried. "IT" is one of my favourite novels ever. We watched the 1st part and it was enjoyable, I didn't think it did the book justice, but still, it was an interesting coming of age while defeating demons kind of story.
But this..this abomination, this dumpster fire, this garbage excuse of a movie should have never existed.
The actors, although well selected, couldn't save it.
First, there was no story, no character development, no lessons to be learned. Zero. And if a movie doesn't have a story it's just a bunch of cheap scenes plastered together with no purpose or connection.
Second, the "movie" had a huge problem with the tone. Was it supposed to actually be a parody, is that the reason everyone next to me in the movie theater was laughing? I also laughed at how bad it was. Cheap, overrecycled jokes, repeated till they were annoying the crap out of everyone, horrendous CGI monsters, by the look of it designed by 3rd graders, ridiculous and extremely overused jumpscares, which were not creepy, not scary, just poorly executed. I believe the purpose of the "scares" was actually torture for the viewer. Maybe it's a new trend in Hollywood, "horror" is actually the feeling of waiting till the damn movie is over so you can do literally anything else with your life afterwards.
Lastly, this piece of crap has absolutely nothing to do with the book. Dear book lovers, please be warned, stay away from this disaster or you will feel insulted. In fact dear everyone, do yourself a favour and pick anything else, you too will feel insulted even if you've never read the novel. This movie will suck the life out of you and all you will want, is to find the closest exit door, run and erase the stupid existance of this movie out of your mind and soul.
