Great story, for those King fans it does not truly follow the book well. However that would be hard to do as a movie. It is a 2 part movie though. The next should be coming out this summer. I will add to my disappointment that the DVD case states that there are some interviews and supplemental footage included. There is not.

The film quality was excellent. The producer obviously tried to mimic in certain areas the original IT. The characters did fairly well. I was a little bit more character in the horror creation. Pennywise would seem a little bit more in the movie. I think that they could have worked a little bit harder and did a little bit but I work on create the real horror film. It was good but I wouldn't give it a five-star. So I'm going to go ahead and say I'll give it a 3-star. It's good for one time watch.

Within the same week after I ordered a DVD copy of the new "It" movie, it arrived at my house in top condition. Even when I watched the movie, the disc is is also in top condition with a great picture quality and no skipping at all, not even once. Even the movie is overall very well done, interesting, and intense with the story brought to live action overall well with the characters developed and brought overall good as well. The beginning is very touching where Bill, the main character, made a paper boat for his little brother Georgie, as well as when Georgie floated his new toy boat in the water on the street before it accidentally fell into the sewer to be intercepted by Pennywise the Clown, who is portrayed not only very well, but very creepy and scary, like the killer clown is meant to be. All of the other characters are also developed and portrayed very well, to remind a lot of the viewers of how lively and well developed they were in the book. That is not to mention the great action and lively effects there are throughout the movie. It is highly recommended for horror fans, especially those who read and like the book.Read full review

enjoyable to watch kept you waiting for the flash forward part as in the original but never happened the story was more about them as kids than adults and even though some of the main characters in this version stood out they were secondary in the original over all it was better in the scare but far less in the entertainment but overall if asked to watch again i would but would need another few years before seeing both versions again.

Very good but as always, the it 1990 film is better. i will admit richie in this movie is alot more funny than 1990 richie, but that was likely because it 1990 was a tv film. definently scarier and more gory than the 1990 miniseries, but sometimes in this movie, they overkilled the swearing a bit too much. but i am glad they resisted doing a watered down pg 13 version. i will always love tim curry's clown the best though. i do think that this movie did do the book more justice. but it had no limitations and a huge budget. both movies are great watch both of them they are good in there own ways. it 2019 is good.
