SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK is much better.

Did not like it nearly as much as I did Chapter One. Kind of felt the same about the original as well. Starting to think that no matter what, maybe the adult's story just doesn't translate that well on screen, even if it is a part of the book. Not to mention, this shyt was way too damn long. I walked into the theater around 10:20 and didn't walk out til almost 1:30. Damn near fell asleep in the theater at one point with all of the false climaxes. Sad too, cuz the lineup of actors was pretty good for this kind of movie but it felt wasted. But, it just seemed to drag on and on (without the charm of the first one).

And for this foo' talkin' bout a 7 hour cut release? Must have lost his fukkin' mind

Been meaning to see this

I heard they completely wasted the black character again , Even on Reddit people are mad about that. They said e\in the book he was an instrumental character, in the movie he was slightly necessary

Thoughts, Black breh was the weakest casting, just not a great actor plus no depth to him


Next poor actor was grown Ben, he was no doubt but it’s sad when your kid actor played you better


The reshoots with the kids were too ovious, I mean maybe it wasn’t supposed to look like a month or two later, but those growth spurts, especially bev looking like a fukking adult in the classroom with Ben lol


There were fukkery moments but overall didn’t feel this installment felt anywhere near as menacing, dark, or scary as it should have been. And I would’ve made the directorial decision to

Spoiler

leave bowers out of is, his return added nothing to the story on screen, didn’t help build up the power of pennywise, didn’t pose a real threat, just taking up space given the movie doesn’t explore IT’s power over people explicitly....but it was good fukkery

6.5/10 for me. Need to watch the two together to come up with a real final verdict on these two

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

Saw this last night and eh. I give this a 5 or 6/10. A few scenes were dope but overall there were a lot of dull scenes and a lot of the flashbacks were kind of boring.

One was way better and long live pennywise.

Just watched this..

The IT series always comes off as PG 13 movies trying too hard to be Rated R. Nothing is scary.. storylines are blah..
Lets face it, all Stephen King movies are better as books. They dont translate well to the screen.

Just weak

The Mist was solid, but how did The Shawshank Redemption not come to mind first.
