I finally got around to watching the new It. It's pretty bad. Same problems that affect a lot of modern movies. Overlong; overdone shaky cam; overuse of CGI; reliance of jump scares; complete absence of subtlety or nuance.

Just a generic modern horror movie piggybacking on the name value of the original and Stephen King.

It misses the levity Tim Curry brought to the role of Pennywise, the new Pennywise just tries too hard and misses the mark.

I think it failed to expand on the original in any way and any new things it brought to the table were just unnecessary and felt flat.

Very overrated!

P.S. The kids were all okay apart from the annoying, four-eyed dweeb playing the Richie Tozier character.

I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.
