Minor gripes notwithstanding, IT remains an exceptionally well-made film, and the decision to split the source material and focus solely on the first half of the narrative results in one of the most faithful Stephen King adaptations ever.

It's not quite breathing the same rarefied air of Stand By Me or The Shawshank Redemption, but it's certainly in the upper echelon, and Muschietti perfectly captures the pitch-perfect mix of humor and horror that made the original novel so entertaining and compelling.

This review of It (2017) was written by on 13 Sep 2017.

It has generally received very positive reviews.
