It is full of outstanding performances by its losers and legitimate scream-out-loud scares. An instant modern horror classic.

So I've been waiting for this movie for a long time and I finally got to see It in the early hours of this morning. As many others have said the cinematography is excellent, as is Pennywise himself. The young actors playing the losers are mostly all great bar one or two of them. The bullies are also pretty terrifying in this version but I did feel one in particular was under used. This version is very bloody, funny, emotional and pretty damn scary, so full respect to Andy Muschetti and the cast crew for an excellent adaption. Can't wait to see It again.

2017's version of IT kept me afloat all the way through. Bill Skarsgard's performance as Pennywise is horror acting at it's finest. This man knows how to creep you into the back of your chair by just giving you a look. Although the Clown was central in this movie, it seems the children really rained on his parade. They were funny, well cast and acted flawlessly. Another thing that makes this horror really stand out is the fact that the cinematography is really well done. You could make a still of every scene and not have a bad shot, it is that good. Even though the movie was predicable from time to time, it still makes me want to have a look underneath my bed and avoid every connection to the sewers.

I though I was watching a cheap version of stranger things..

so many expectations, so disappointed! i found It really boring. I had to stop and start watching again multiple times, I couldn't get to the end :(

For sure one of the best movies his year!! My expectations were so high and the movie nailed in every part. A great adaptation from the book and the young cast is very talented. Bill Skarsgard delivered a very impressive performance as pennywise and the movies goes very strong from the very start to the end. The opening sequence, especially, is very memorable. you wont regret this one! Not only a horrror movie, but also a movie about friendships and how everyone can win against their own fears. Well done!

So looking forward to this adaption ! :D

The original was OK. This was dumbed down and aimed at a kids market. Lots of jump scares that go nowhere. Lots of stupidity. Ritchie seems based on mouth from the Goonies but more obnoxious. Sometimes it's more a remake of Stand By Me than IT. The movie focused too much on trying to capture an 80s charm/feel with modern CGI jump scares to loud noises with a retro soundtrack to ever be original or interesting of itself. The formular seems to be a trend today >$$$. Imagine how much money a superhero movie set in the 80s would make? Call it stranger things vs superman: prom night. Buck tooth slaphead Pennywise also talks like scooby doo which was daft. There is a general overuse of the word 'float.' I started to really not care anymore when the rock war with the overly insane bully happened to some dodgy music. It's also badly structured. Didn't feel like a journey. The original did. The characters in the original were more human and in this they are just one trick ponies.
