B-
It was...fine. The CGI though was some of the worst I have ever seen in a movie. I don't know if this was done on purpose because this plays more like a horror comedy than a straight horror but I know I didn't appreciate it in the slightest.
The main problem I have with both this and the miniseries is that for me personally Pennywise wasn't the scariest thing about the book but it's 99% of the focus of the movies. Far more chilling (which is a weird thing when dealing with a child murdering monster) was the influence IT had over Derry and how the population of Derry was almost completely corrupted. Their evil was scarier than the clown imo. The book is superior because you get the layers of horror upon horror in a small town and one small group that stands up and stops it. I didn't think the movies/miniseries do as good a job at showing just how bad things are. But IT probably needs a season on a streaming service to be done right.

I couldn't ask for anything more from a summer blockbuster except they could have trimmed a good 15-30 minutes. If it was tightened up I would give it an A+. As it is, i'll give it a strong B+... everything was ridiculous and it was AWESOME. Best moments were Kevin Hart out of nowhere and when The Rock was holding the helicopter with the chain 🤣.

in Review That Movie! (Spoilers Allowed)
Posted · Edited by glassfairy
A+++++
My movie of the decade. Just about as good a social commentary as can be expected from a Hollywood movie. For me it worked on every single level. Magnificent!
All I kept remembering throughout the movie was a quote by Jean-Jacques Rousseau-When the people shall have nothing more to eat, they will eat the rich.
How easy it is in modern society to sit surrounded by comfort, blissfully unaware (or purposefully ignorant) that we sit on a powder keg and at any time the match could be lit and the whole system could come crumbling down. Watching the Joker was great but watching Gotham crumble was better still.
