Lacking!

Rating: 3/10 (8 September 2019)

It Chapter Two is lacking. Many cliche here for an audience here: Gay couple which gets beat up by town toughs. (there is always the town tough angle) The black family burned out years ago ( there is always a bad town secret) The old tribal ritual which will get rid of the creature. ( there is always some ancient ritual. How and why it works is never explained) Well It Chapter Two becomes a formulated movie, which turns into story about childhood PTSD, and bad dreams. Every past memory must have the chasing dream sequence. Yet another cliche, which turns into another C G I fest. We never find out what, why of the clown, and or the history behind it. The remake is different from the book and other movies. The end is like a therapy session of shrinking down bad feelings and memories. Nothing about the clown, and more about the characters growing up and past. The first movie was what the second was not. Maybe the joke about not knowing how to finish a story is a joke about the movie. Maybe the break between part one and two made the story lacking. Well 3 stars there is something just lacking.
