A good follow up to a very good horror movie.

Rating: 6/10 (7 September 2019)

The modern adaptation of the classic IT series follows in the footsteps of the original mini series, that being that the second part is worse than the first. It's still good mind you, but not as good. Overall, almost everything about this movie felt like a downgrade to the first or didn't improve at all. The parts that are better in my opinion is the casting and the dynamic between the characters. Every main character in this movie feels like they have known each other for their whole life and have comradery to them. The casting is perfect, every actor does a phenomenal job in this movie. What can you say about Bill Skarsgård that hasn't been said already? He's the best actor in both movies, no one comes close. This movie doesn't pull any punches, if you don't like lots of blood and gore then stay away, cause there's lots. The horror itself is my biggest problem with the movie. All the scary parts build up a lot of tension, and then it falls flat on its face. The ending is also pretty bad. I wont spoil anything but it is not that good. It's still a good movie, and I would recommend checking it out if you're interested in horror, or comedy even. This movie has a lot of jokes in it that work very well even with a shape shifting clown that prays on kids fear.
