Hands down the best time I've had at the movies all year. It is a fucking blast!
Basically The Goonies with a demonic killer clown.
The kid from Stranger Things steals the entire movie. His one liners were absolute gold. My sides were acing. He says this one line after the rock fight and I was crying real tears.
All of the kids were exceptional. Every single kid knocks it out of the park. Everyone has their own distinct personalities, characteristics, quips, and quirks. The chemistry between the group was outstanding. There's so much great banter among one another I haven't seen this type of group comradery between kids since The Goonies and Stand Bye Me. Mind you, those movies…
jack dylan grazer has the power to save the child comedian industry and the ONLY reason he hasn’t yet is because no one wants that
"time to float"
JUST earns 4 stars, because what it gets right, it REALLY gets right. does for horror what super 8 did for sci fi. i'm still trying to figure out exactly where i stand, and it might be too early to tell, but this feels like something special (or even just on the brink of it)
you should probably catch this in theaters (if you can handle it)
there was one scene where finn wolfhard's character calls the Token Dream Girl "molly ringwald" after she says something cheesy and it's so comforting to know that even in a fictional maine town where a killer clown is literally eating children alive, miss molly kathleen ringwald remains the icon of the 80s
georgie was adorable i will literally reach into the sewer and end pennywise's life with my own two hands for what he did to that kid. fix your hairline before trying anything you stinky bitch
me:
richie: haha yeah well guess what i fucked ur MOM last night what are u gunna do about it you PUSSY hahaha pennywise? more like PENISWISE yeah he can come at me any day i will slap him across the face with my big DICK and KILL him but not before i fuck his sister too OH WAIT i just remembered i already did last night right after i fucked... ur MOM hahahaha

Pitch-Black danger; the first "'New Line Cinema' in spirit" horror joint. Successfully embodies the commitment to shockers of the 80s while ignoring, but not condemning, the ever-present faux-tactility of the 90s and their rebellion to a growing canon of Horror movie-making. Hiring Chung-Hoon Chung as its cinematographer was truly a blessing. It would make for a perfect capper of a Halloween night with Jason Goes to Hell, New Nightmare, and The Mangler, and it's just brimming with aesthetic creativity entirely concerned with genre replication. It goes far and away past 'homage', severing the Spielbergian myth at its elbow with a cleaver straight out of In the Mouth of Madness. A little uneven tonally, but so is the source, and…
not to be beverly harsh but if you are over the age of let’s say 16 and you still “don’t do scary movies” you need to look inward and do some reflecting on yr life
this was good and everything but why did they have to give pennywise red hair i mean it was awkward enough being the only redhead in the theater but if you gave this demonic child-eating clown red hair thats just inviting my ass to get beat in this theater

I have questions.
Are all of the adults in Derry complicit in this (yes, painting of a woman dropping the baby in the well, I saw you) or just incredibly incompetent? How is an accident that killed 88 children something that has to be discovered and not, you know, the subject of a yearly memorial service that all of the kids except the new one would at least be somewhat familiar with? How is a pillar of (magically floating) bodies and detritus under a large vent letting in sunlight something the police or other authorities were unable to find? How did they never search the sewers? How is it a bunch of kids were able…
when theyre all comforting stan after he gets attacked in the sewers and then bill when he realizes georgies really gone...... its about the power of FRIENDSHIP and LOVE....... i never felt like a loser when i was with all of you.... k im gonna go cry about these kids for the rest of the day nobody hmu 😭😭
I really, really enjoyed this film! It has a stranger things vibe to it and I’m a huge stranger things fan so that added to my enjoyment.
My Rating: 8.5/10
57/300
The flaws show up more the more you watch it, namely the comedy (something that would invariably fuck up the second) and dodgy CGI (stick to makeup and mechanical for the love of God). But the kids are just fantastic, arguably better than the adults in the second movie, and the horror is pretty ballsy, it tries a lot and pushes the boundaries. And I love the score by Benjamin Wallfisch. Better than the original for sure.
Loved the coming of age stuff, was suitably creeped out by sections of the horror.
Some parts of this movie are so fun, but dear god WHY IS IT SO LONG??? How does a movie where Bill Skars is doing THAT so much still manage to be so boring.
Maybe I'm getting old and just need to moan about anything and everything but the opening scenes are too dark and now I need to buy a new TV or get my eyes checked... Moving from eyes to ears... When I first saw this at the cinema the volume was cranked up loud, my poor eardrums could barely cope with the shrill sound of prepubescent voices. Luckily I was able to get used to it pretty quick, but with high volume comes more effective jump scares. As I settled into the noise I was at least glad I had donned my brown pants. However - It wasn't overly scary throughout, my few small flinches were mainly hidden by some weirdly…
