Review of It (2017) by Matthew A — 02 Oct 2017
Despite not having many effective scares, this is a fantastic modern classic. The acting surprised me the most, with fantastic performances coming from almost all of the leading actors (and actress). IT may fail to deliver in the scare department, but the themes of coming of age and friendship, as well as a frightening but emotional story at its core, makes this, in my opinion, the best film of this year.
(Don't rant at me, this is 100% my opinion, and I'm fully aware that films like Wonder Woman and Get Out came out this year, which are definitely all 5 star movies too. If there were less jumpscares, and it kept the more effective ones, I would go as far as to say IT is one of my favourite films I've ever seen.
) Congratulations to everyone involved!
