The ending sealed the deal

Rating: 8/10 (6 September 2019)

The Actors chosen did an outstanding job, Bill Hader really took to the screen and played his part so incredible I almost forgot he played nonsense on SNL. The director did an amazing job again with the scene changes, they flowed every so easily. This movie falls nothing short of scares from gory to jumpy, just like the first it has you sitting on the edge of your seat with suspense. The tie between past and future remained present throughout the film and really captured and even developed the characters more, just when you thought you couldn't love them any harder. The underlying theme and notion of the movie was just as powerful as the obvious; friendships last forever, the bond the kids (now adults) formed and continue to grow really give this movie the extra kick it needs to set it apart from any other horror movie out there. It's not just about the monster or killing it, it's about finding yourself and accepting who you are and how that makes you stronger. The ending was beautifully done so much so that there could be only one flaw, and while I'm biased I hated to see Eddie was killed off. As the joke goes in the movie "just like one of bills books, the ending sucked". Nonetheless the movie lived up to its expectations from beginning to end. Not just any horror film a film with a real story.
