Mariola A The movie isn’t great as the remake from 2017. I just find the movie a disappointing and the ending was a joke when the one of the characters fake their death.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/24/24 Full Review Blu B It's interesting. It really isn't so much scary as it is spooky. Kind of like an old fashioned ghost story kind of. It's a cool idea, and half the time it does explore. However the editing is just ok and the biggest problem here. The first half just introduces the kids one at a time in the exact same way and it just gets very repetitve because there's 7 of them. You could rearrange it and not much is lost. And the same problem happens in the second half. Than it gets bogged down jumping between the past and present a lot for reasons that I feel go nowhere or are just forgettable. This should've found a way to better introduce the kids together and not be so repetitive in structure of each. Everything else though isn't half bad. For a TV mini series movie most of the time it doesn't feel cheap and captures a cinemaic feel. There are times where the TV roots do shine through but for the most part if you told me this was a theatrical release, I'd believe ya. It's got some good direction at times and other times it's just basic. Pennywise isn't bad but I never found him creepy, funny, but just more memorable than anything. It feels like he does Freddy Kruger like gags more than being a serious threat (He is a clown so only can complain so much) but I wish he was a bit more menacing. The special effects are pretty good also. Some of the main 7 are better actors than others. No one is really bad in this. It's just a lot are forgettable but others do better. Same can be said overall nothing is broken about this. It just needed to cut the repetition, make Pennywise a bit more menacing, maybe a bit less characters or do a better job tying their arcs together, and be clearer with the ideas it's exploring. Sometimes this is exploring lost childhood, others growing up, and sometimes I don't know. It has a Goonies like feel to it at times which gives it charm also. It's a bit all over in that regard but it is original and it isn't a gore fest at all. It's intelligent but not refined in that regard. If your a die hard of fan of Stephen King or Killer Clowns than check this out. Most probably could skip this and not miss much. It is interesting though.
